She had been unwilling to give up her husband to the state for long periods.

Explanation:

Mercy Otis was an important figure in the Revolution of American History, especially because she was an activist, as she used her writing skills and talent to portray women's voice during a tense political time in the United States. However, since according to Akers, women were only allowed to participate in political issues by private influence on their husbands and sons, he used the fact that Mercy Otis was unwilling to give up her husband to state for long to diminish her role and in a way damage her political image and influence.
