Based on the historical context information, how does Elizabeth Cady Stanton use the popular view of women to argue for women’s

rights?
a. She states that women have the same masculine qualities that men have and therefore are fit to vote.
b. She states that without women’s influence, the baser qualities of men will destroy society.
c. She states that men and women must adopt the other gender’s qualities and learn from one another.
d. She states that women should throw off their feminine qualities and adopt masculine ones to gain rights.



Historical Context: Women in the Nineteenth Century

The Victorian woman was expected to be the “Angel in the House.” This term, which originated from a poem by English poet Coventry Patmore, referred to all the so-called “womanly” qualities that women were expected to possess. Victorian society believed in a dichotomy where man possessed higher and stronger qualities, such as intellect, strength, aggression, and logic, while women were said to naturally possess more “pure” qualities, such as patience, kindness, tranquility, and self-sacrifice. Being forced to conform to expectations that were almost impossible to fulfill, a Victorian woman was expected to literally be an “angel”—the only angel—in the household. She was expected to uphold the morality and purity of not only her own household, but of society in general as well. Men, on the other hand, considered the “baser” sex, were not subjected to such expectations.

Why is the punishment for removing weight from the “handicap bag” so harsh? Find textual evidence to support your answer. Give a
allsm [11]

Answer:

The punishment for removing weight from the 'handicap bag' was so harsh because if anyone would remove weight then others, too, would want to remove weights from their handicap bag, which will make their society step back to the Dark Ages of competition.

Explanation:

Harrison Bergeron is a short story written by Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. The story is about a dystopian society, where people are living in 2081 and all people are equal in society.

There is an agency named the United States Handicapper General, which puts a 'handicap bag' around the neck of people who are more smarter and wiser than others. It is done so that people may not feel inferior to anyone.

The bag weighs around forty-seven pounds and is tied around the neck of <em>handicap </em>people. The punishment to remove weight from <em>'handicap bag' </em>is severe because if anyone would remove the weight from their bags then others would likely do the same, which will bring chaos in the society. This chaos most likely will result in going back to the <em>Dark Ages </em>where people were not equal and competitive.

<u>Textual evidence</u>

<em>'“If I tried to get away with it,” said George, “then other people’d get away with it— and pretty soon we’d be right back to the dark ages again, with everybody competing  against everybody else...'</em>
