Question

What technique does Franklin use to communicate his message in "Rules and Maxims for Promoting Matrimonial Happiness"?

Answer 1

The correct answer is 4)He uses a fatherly tone to appeal to women and sway them to follow his advice. After reading these rules, we are quite appalled at your views on the role women must play. You say that in order to have a happy marriage, one must have a happy husband and it is the role of the woman to keep her husband happy. This is absurd and disrespectful. Women should be treated as men’s equals not as a lesser creature.
