What does the labour of women of the Third Estate show about their position in French society?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: They performed economic work, yet received lower wages and limited social and political rights

Women of the Third Estate worked as seamstresses, laundresses, domestic workers and small shopkeepers. They contributed to family income, but generally earned less than men and did not have political rights such as voting. Their labour therefore shows both economic participation and social-political inequality. Option A is incorrect because women did not enjoy political rights equal to men. Exam tip: Remember women’s economic contribution alongside their lack of political rights during the French Revolution.
