Answer 1

The correct answer is: A. Discrimination and its effects on people are often hard to recognize. It is an essay by Virginia Woolf, where the main theme of this feminist text is the disadvantage of women writers within a literary tradition dominated by men. Women were very limited in terms of space, privacy and education to be able to write.
