(D) Absence of voting rights for women.

Answer 1

Hint:- When we talk about social life, boys are shown strong and fearless in it. On other hand girls are shown to be more vulnerable and helpless. They are considered very soft. There is a biological fact, there are factors which we cannot change naturally even if we want to. When talking about Indian society, it is necessary to know the history of Indian society in which Indian society has been described as a patriarchal society. In which women are considered below men, they are considered weaker than men.

Complete solution: - It is postmodern theory, in which the emphasis was on analyzing international politics in the context of society. Feminists strongly criticized realism. According to feminists, 'power politics is basically patriarchal, because the concept of power is basically associated with men and being weak is basically associated with women. Men were shown to engage in power struggle.
On the other hand, the role of women by the patriarchal authority was considered as secondary and was described as a child-generating device. Hence, the role of women became secondary in both society and the state.
The state is basically an extension of society. When society itself is patriarchal, then all states are patriarchal, whether they are medieval states or capitalist states or socialist states, according to them, the state is not a neutral or deviant institution, but a hidden form of patriarchal power.
Patriarchal power is further strengthened by the state, as succession, sexual relations and production processes are regulated by the state. The concept of justice, equality charged by the state does not apply to the family. In this, thinkers like Spink, Peterson and District Einstein clearly stated that patriarchy is glorified by the state. The norms of recruitment in the basic institutions of the state such as army, police are also considered in terms of nationalism as determined by men.

So option A is the correct answer.

Note: - The idea of ​​liberal feminists is more practical. Because the strong role of women in society and governance will strengthen the economic, political, strategic position of the nation, thereby promoting national interests as well as establishing social justice.
