Answer 1

The correct answer is option A. "The men in the story place little value on what women think or do.".

Step-by-step explanation:

Susan Glaspell’s “A Jury of Her Peers” is a short story that describes the discovery and investigation of John Wright's murder. As the story unfolds, the women in the story found key evidence to prove justification in Mrs. Wright’s actions. The men in the story place little value on what women think or do, which proved to be an error at the end because the curious and attention to the details that women gave to the case prevented that Mrs. Wright got a conviction.
