Answer: C) simile.

Explanation: A simile is a figure of speech that consists in making a comparison between elements that aren't obviously related, this comparison is made using the words "like" and "as." In the given line from "Young Lions, Young Ladies" we can see an example of a simile that compares boys and girls on relationships to kids playing dress up in their parents' clothes, so the correct answer is option C.
