Answer:
C
Explanation:
This is a much much harder question to answer than the other one posted on Triffles (1916). The theme isn't exactly listed. The theme really is the different ways things are seen by men and women.
I wouldn't pick A. The difference is not exactly in the roles of each. The difference is in their psychologies. That is brought out when one of the men asked, without any interest in the answer, whether Mrs. Wright was going to knot or quilt what she was working on. He thought he was humoring the women. They thought he was being super obtuse and should have realized his question meant nothing.
B may very well be true, but not in this passage. One of the themes running through this 1 act play is how hard it is for women to live in spaces that are lonely and isolated.
C I think I would pick this one. The women by this time know what happened. But they think Mrs Wright was not without just cause.
D I'm not sure I know why public vs. Private would be important. It is the difference between what men and women see, not a reflection of their lives.
E love and friendship is too strong.
