Read the excerpt from A Vindication of the Rights of Woman.
In this style, argue tyrants of every denomination, from the weak king to the weak father of a family; they are all eager to crush reason; yet always assert that they usurp its throne only to be useful. Do you not act a similar part, when you force all women, by denying them civil and political rights, to remain immured in their families groping in the dark? For surely, Sir, you will not assert, that a duty can be binding which is not founded on reason?
Which statement paraphrases Wollstonecraft’s argument?
A.By refusing women rights, men are enslaving women in their current roles.
B.Men strive to be kings and fathers because they prefer leadership roles.
C.By ignoring women’s demands, men are weakening the family structure.
D.Women are toiling in the dark, unaware of new laws that are being considered.

A Vindication of the Rights of Woman: with Strictures on Political and Moral Subjects (1792), written by the 18th-century British proto-feminist Mary Wollstonecraft, is one of the earliest works of feminist philosophy. In it, Wollstonecraft responds to those educational and political theorists of the 18th century who did not believe women should receive a rational education. She argues that women ought to have an education commensurate with their position in society, claiming that women are essential to the nation because they educate its children and because they could be "companions" to their husbands, rather than mere wives.

Men are here compared to tyrants, and women are "immured" - fixed in their family roles they are practically enslaved withour rights.
