Logical Reasoning Question 10
Question; Direction; Study the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below:
Since women first entered the workforce at the beginning of the twentieth century, there have been many uphill battles fought in order to acquire the same opportunities as men. These rights included womens suffrage, the right to use contraceptives, a wife being able to own property separately from her husband and the privilege for women to attain higher education. One issue that remains significantly problematic in the world is that womens earnings in the workplace are not yet equal to that of men. Although women have advanced in both their education and work experience, the wage gap has closed very little in comparison. There are diverse positions on this subject and the reasons behind the pay disparity are largely debated. People typically have one of two general opinions; some believe the wage gap exists for justifiable reasons and others believe the disparity is a result of discriminatory views of women. What is the correct understanding of equal opportunity as presented in the passage?
Options:
A) Women can do whatever men can do in a society and family
B) Women can have social opportunities that are meant for men
C) Women can take social opportunities that are available to both genders
D) None of these
