Question 2 refers to the passage below. "Women and men have entered the historical process under different conditions
and have passed through it at different rates of speed. If recording, defining,
and interpreting the past marks man's entry into history, this occurred for males
in the third millennium B. C. It occurred for women (and only some of them)
with a few notable exceptions in the nineteenth century. Until then, all History
was for women pre-History."
Gerda Lerner, The Creation of Patriarchy, 1986
