Step-by-step explanation:
What is an inference?
An inference is a guess or estimate based on given information. Ex: The woman's fish died. The inference would be that the woman is most likely sad about the death of her fish.
A is incorrect because the author never says she fakes being okay with her body, but really isn't. What she does say is, "It would be easy to pretend I am just fine with my body as it is.". This does not mean the author is pretending not to be okay, she's simply saying it would be easy to pretend.
B is incorrect because the author never mentioned other women becoming feminists. She only said that she was a feminist. Additionally, the author never said that other women becoming feminists would dissolve strict beauty standards. The author only said that she wanted the strict beauty rules to be more lenient and for a variety of body types to be included.
C is correct because she says that it would be easy to fake being okay with her body. Then, she goes on ti explain the hurtful beauty standards should be broken and more diverse body types should be included. From these two sentences, we can infer that the author is not okay with how her body looks because of the beauty standards today.
D is incorrect because the author never mentions how long she has disliked her body and having a life time feeling of hate towards her body.
