Answer:

An example of the expansion of citizenship is Option B: The Nineteenth Amendment barred voting discrimination based on sex.

Explanation:

There is a lot of ambiguity surrounding citizenship and women but essentially before the right to vote, the citizenship rights a woman enjoyed were tied largely to her husband. She therefore had what is called derivative citizenship. A husband and wife became the same legal person under most laws and it was the husband's responsibility to act on behalf of his wife. She was not allowed to vote or hold property in her own name unless she had the permission of her husband in most cases. An American woman who married a foreign citizen would also lose her American citizenship. The assumption was that the woman would assume the citizenship of her husband, but the laws of many foreign countries did not make this automatically so. Women would become stateless in many cases by marrying a foreign spouse. This was especially the case in the marriages of American women and Asian men who were subject to legislation like the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 that denied them citizenship.
