Read the quote from Betty Friedan’s The Feminine Mystique. Sometimes a woman would say “I feel empty somehow . . . incomplete.”

Or she would say, “I feel as if I don’t exist.” Sometimes she blotted out the feeling with a tranquilizer. Which best describes the connotation of “blotted” in the excerpt? It has a positive connotation, because it implies the women were able to erase the feelings of emptiness. It has a positive connotation, because it implies the emptiness was able to be replaced with happiness. It has a negative connotation, because it implies women were actually strengthening the feelings of emptiness. It has a negative connotation, because it implies women were merely temporarily lessening the feelings of emptiness.

Answer:

It has a negative connotation, because it implies women were merely temporarily lessening the feelings of emptiness.

Explanation:

The phrasal verb blot out means to hide, conceal, cover or mask. Thus, according to the quote from Betty Friedan’s "The Feminine Mystique," the women would take medicinal drugs to temporarily reduce their feelings of loneliness, incompleteness  and worthlessness

Just fake it, write something about how you didn't study for a test and you failed and you learned that you have to study for tests. Then you aced the final exam because you studied a lot and it really paid off. If you're in 9th grade or below, teachers will eat that sh*t up
