Answer: B. the outfits and freedom of bicycling led to women in particular feeling more free to be exploratory in their writings.

As bicycling became more popular, women became more liberated. This was mostly due to the fact that women were able to gain independence of mobility. While most women could not travel very far without a companion before the invention of bicycles, they were now able to go everywhere easily. Clothes had to adapt to these new mechanisms, and they became less constraining. The freedom that women began to enjoy in their personal lives was reflected in the liberty they felt to be exploratory in their writings.
