A) he was feeding it with twigs the size of his finger
B) those old timers were rather womenish, some of them, he thought
C) any man who was a man could travel alone

The sentence "any man who was a man could travel alone" shows the best that the protagonist could be seen as prideful in his abilities and not ignorant of his surroundings.
Answer: Option C
<u>Explanation:</u>
In the sentence that has been shown above, the thoughts of the protagonist and his believes about the travelling are shown. He believes that a man who is actually a man and who has confidence in himself and believes in the abilities that he has, can travel alone any where. He is not afraid of the problems that he would face while travelling from one place to the other be it any where.
By reading these sentences, it is shown that he believes that he is a true man and totally believes in his abilities. He is rather very proud of the abilities that he has. It is a clear proof that he is very confident of himself and he is rather not ignorant of the things that surround him. He is not ignorant of his surroundings.
The answer is D. I hope this helps.
