The correct option is D S1: True; S2: True; S3: False

Before the revolution, women were actively involved in farm work, looking after livestock, gathering firewood, and spinning yarn. During the revolution, women and children started working in factories and industries, where they were paid for their work. Women were ready to work in a strict environment because they gained financial independence. The nature of the work was monotonous, and women had to work for longer hours and faced humiliation. The industries neither considered women's health nor looked after their family.
