Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is A) Narrower gender socialization for girls is reflected in differential gender access to media.

Explanation:

There are many situations where gender discrimination becomes common. Gender discrimination is common in many societies more overly underdeveloped and rural societies. Women in these kind of societies are often considered inferior to men. There are many situations where a girl is restricted to do something only because of gender discrimination.

In the scenario discussed in the question, Basima's parents restrict her from growing to the movies whereas allowing her brother to go which shows narrower gender socialization for girls.
