Solution

The correct option is B A is false but R is true
The Constitution of 1791 was unsupportive of women in France. It considered them as 'passive' citizens. But the revolutionary government gave women the freedom to pursue education, and divorce was made legal. Women were able to enjoy better opportunities and had better job prospects.
