The correct answer to this open question is the following.

We are talking about the Article "Nacirema," written by Horace Miner, in which he describes American culture.

We cannot say it is outrageous or inappropriate because it is the perception and vision of an anthropologist that is exposing his work Is there any evidence of bias? Probably, but if the work tried to make a peculiar description of the inhabitants of America to capture the attention of scholars and readers, he had to do it in an unconventional way.

"Nacirema," is "America" spelled backward, and was aimed to describe the conduct and customs of American people from a different perspective.

harkovskaia [24]

Answer: A. Drastic change in traditional gender roles and norms

Explanation:

Even though the first feminists advocated for a lot of things which they hoped would better the lives of women, they did not favor a drastic change to traditional gender roles and norms.

They wanted women to continue taking care of their families and husbands but they wanted to be able to do so more effectively by being empowered so that they could contribute more to their family's wellbeing. For instance, by being able to get better jobs to bring in more income.
