What social challenges did liberal forces face in japan? a. western ideas about women’s roles clashed with traditional society. b. conservatives blasted government corruption, such as payoffs. c. western influences undermined liberal ideas of obedience. d. workers earning low wages were attracted to the ideas of marx and lenin.

The correct answer is A) Western ideas about women’s roles clashed with traditional society.

The social challenges did liberal forces face in Japan were A.    Western ideas about women’s roles clashed with traditional society.

Japanese society has always been very traditionalist. Since ancient time, women had played a secondary role in society, always behind men. Even today, the gender difference is an issue to consider in Japan. Women had to walk behind men, as a sign of respect. So when Western ideas arrived in Japan after World War II, they clashed with the traditional culture and traditions in the Japanese family and society. It was not easy for them to accept Western ideas.
