How did the transition from agrarian to urban societies affect gender roles?

Question

A. Men and Women were looked at on an equal plane in level matters.

B. Women were seen as important in urban society as they had been in agraian society.

C. With new urban societies men took the lead in developing the military while women developed the administrative roles.

D. As new wealth developed it was believed that inheritance should come through the male line.

Answer 1

The answer for this would be D. I think that it is the most reasonable answer because, following the Agricultural Revolution, women's roles in society were diminished. Following the rise of urban societies, women's roles were even more diminished than before, although there have been many attempts in modern times to actually fix the gender imbalance in some countries around the world.
