Solution

The correct option is B Nursing
Women are often limited to jobs related to fields such as nursing and teaching. This is largely a result of social pressure and stereotypes in our society. By no means is such a reality an indication of a lack of capability and is rather a harsh commentary on the lack of opportunity and the outcome of adhering to rigid gender roles.
