Solution
Children and women were prohibited from reading novels because :
- Novels fostered indiviualism and freedom amongst women. Men feared that it may affect their dominance.
- Women were usually expected to be engaged in household work and reading was not considered as a part of their job.
- Novels contained even some bold subjects which were considered unsuitable for children.
