Question

Choose the correct option.

Assertion (A): Women should not be treated equally.
Reason (R): Women are biologically different from men.

• A. Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
• B. Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.
• C. A is true, but R is false.
• D. A is false, but R is true.

Answer 1

The correct option is D A is false, but R is true.

It is a fact that women are biologically different from men. But differences do not justify inequalities. Equality means the freedom to pursue one’s ability from the opportunities available to all. Hence, setting aside biological differences, women must be given the same opportunities from education to career as men are given.
