• D. Both statement I and statement II are true and statement II is the correct explanation of statement I.

Answer 1

The correct option is D Both statement I and statement II are true and statement II is the correct explanation of statement I.

In 1933 Hitler said: 'In my state, the mother is the most important citizen.' Children in Nazi Germany were repeatedly told that women were radically different from men. The fight for equal rights for men and women that had become part of democratic struggles everywhere was wrong and it would destroy society. While boys were taught to be aggressive, masculine and steel hearted, girls were told that they had to become good mothers and rear pure-blooded Aryan children.

Thus, Both statement I and statement II are true and statement II is the correct explanation of statement I.

Hence, the correct option is $\text{D}$
