Solution
The correct option is B gender A lot of people are discriminated against because of their gender. There is a common stereotype that only the men in the family are supposed to earn. This is why many families do not allow the women in their families to work. This is a type of discrimination against both the male and female genders. This stereotype pressures the males to work and the females to stay home. Both men and women are equally capable of earning and running the household.
