Answer 1

The correct option is d) Women were thought of as weak because of the traditional attitudes

Explanation:

In the late 1800 and early 1900, Women were perceived as weak and timid specially in Indian region. This was due to the fact that there was lack of education.

Women were not aware of their rights. There was no concept of equal opportunity providers back then. Hence, women were not given their due place in the society.

But later on women came out to be very strong in the late 1900.

Answer 2

D) Women were thought of as weak because of the traditional attitudes

Explanation:

• Women's groups not only fought for the right to vote in the late 1800s and early 1900s, but also for specific political and economic justice and social reforms. Around 1880 and 1910, there was an rise from 2.6 million women to 7.8 million women working in the United States.
• While women started to work in industry and business, the majority of the better paying jobs remained for men. 60 per cent of all employed women were domestic workers at the turn of the century. Within the political domain, women have the right to manage their incomes and properties and, when divorced, they took custody of their children.
• In 1896, in four countries (Wyoming, Colorado, Idaho and Utah), women had gained a right to vote. Furthermore, many social and reform-related problems were discussed by women and women's organisations. By the early new century, towns and cities around the nation's women's clubs were committed to , better schools, promoting suffrage, child labor control, women working in syndicates and liquors ban.
• Not all women, however, believed in gender equality. Women who maintained gender roles historically claimed that for women politics was unsuitable. Some also insisted that elections could lead to "rising beards" for some women, who were as threatening to some women as to traditional positions defined by struggle for political, economic and social equality.
