Antecedent is an expression that gives meaning to the word coming after that. For example, I was late to the meeting because police held me for speeding. In this sentence, pronoun me is an explained word which explain another pronoun - I. Antecedent has been used correctly in this sentence. In this question, the first option is correct. Antecedent has been used incorrectly in the second sentence because it's unclear who is considered with the pronoun he. The third option is also an incorrect antecedent because the explaining word has not been given.

Why does Peril use the phrase " the graveyard of outdated popular culture" to refer to pink think?
Kaylis [27]
"Pink think" is a model of thinking that prescribes certain social roles that are suitable and appropriate for women, such as "sugar and spice and everything nice", fear of mice, bad driving, interest for gossip, the ultimate function of childbearing... According to Peril, all of these stereotypes are outdated - but they still somehow sustain because the patriarchal model that is at their core sustains and survives.
