If you were attending an 18th century French salon, then you would be attending to a social gathering of intellectuals and aristocrats.

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

In France, Salons were common during the enlightenment era in the 18th century. Women played a pivotal role in these salons where such places served as a space for men and women to meet and talk and discuss about a lot of topics.

Despite being a patriarchal society, the women decided the topics to be discussed in the salons along with moderating them. By doing so, there was a significant reduction in the rate of marginalisation of the women in Kashmir.
