Solution

The correct option is B suffrage movement
While the men were away fighting in the First World War, the women were called upon to do the work earlier done by men. The working women began to realise the unfair stereotypes imposed on them. These women then started organising themselves into groups and demanded an equal right to vote. This movement is called the women's suffrage movement as the term suffrage means the right to vote.
