The correct answer is C.

Explanation:

Nature, it was thought, demanded less from women since, being their only activity procreation and upbringing, their role was purely physical. They barely fought, their provision of food to the group was secondary, they did not have to solve new situations or face risks, challenges, etc. Reproduction and care of the offspring only required passive and domestic maternal qualities. Based on these reasoning, it was argued that the value of a woman lay in her reproductive organs. And, since neither the development of a creature in the womb, nor the delivery or the production of milk depended on the feminine capacity to think, they did not require that their brain and minds evolved at a rate equal to that of boys.

It should be noted that this thought is extremely macho.
