What was one major political demand of women?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Political rights equal to those of men

Option A is correct because women activists demanded equality in political rights. During and after the French Revolution, women participated in demonstrations, political clubs, petitions, and public debate, yet revolutionary declarations often failed to give them the same citizenship and voting rights as men. Their demand was therefore not merely social recognition but equal political status, including participation in law-making and public decision-making. The other choices contradict the direction of their struggle: increasing royal power or restoring feudal taxes would strengthen old privileges, while inviting foreign rule was not a general demand of women’s revolutionary movements. The key concept is equal citizenship and political participation.
