Restrictions on women during the Reign of Terror raise which question about revolutionary equality?

Correct answer: Whether equality reached women equally

The governing concept is the difference between a revolutionary ideal and its practical application. The French Revolution proclaimed liberty and equality, but political rights and public authority were not extended equally to women. During the Reign of Terror, women’s political clubs were restricted and eventually closed, showing that revolutionary governments could defend equality in principle while limiting women’s organised political participation. Therefore, option A is correct because it asks whether equality actually reached women in the same way as men. Option B concerns bread prices, option C wrongly attributes voting rights to the Church, and option D concerns feudal obligations rather than gender equality. The question tests the limits of revolutionary universalism.
