How did the women's march show that a domestic crisis can become political?

Bread shortages led women to take their demands to the king

A domestic crisis becomes political when people stop treating it as a private household difficulty and demand action from public authorities. In 1789, the shortage and high price of bread affected family survival, and women often had the responsibility of buying food in crowded markets. Their anger was therefore rooted in daily domestic experience. However, they marched to Versailles because the king and government were regarded as responsible for the condition of the country and the supply of necessities. By demanding bread and pressing the royal family to return to Paris, the women converted a household issue into collective political pressure. Option A captures this transition. B, C and D are false: women did not repair the Bastille, did not occupy hundreds of Estates General seats, and did not raise Church taxes.
