Hello :)

The correct answer is option D. It emphasizes how men shouldn’t worry about giving women equal rights if they truly believe that women are less intelligent.

The following quote "As for intellect, all I can say is, if women have a pint and man a quart - why can’t she have her pint full?” demonstrates that women and men don’t have equal rights. This doesn’t mean that one is specifically more intelligent than the other, so we can cross out option c. B isn’t necessarily a logical answer because it isn’t all about education, and the main idea isn’t about which gender is smarter - it is about the rights. Lastly, the support doesn’t support option A. This leaves us with the last option. If men really believe women aren’t as high of a class as they are in education, then there shouldn’t be a need to stress about the rights that they have.

I hope this helps you! If you‘d like me to further explain my answer I would be more than happy to.

~ Have an amazing day ~
