First wave feminism sought all of the following EXCEPT:

A. Drastic change in traditional gender roles and norms
B. Increased economic and educational opportunities for women
C. Legal rights and protection provided to women.
D. The right to vote supported by the suffragist movement.

Answer 1

Answer: A. Drastic change in traditional gender roles and norms

Step-by-step explanation:

Even though the first feminists advocated for a lot of things which they hoped would better the lives of women, they did not favor a drastic change to traditional gender roles and norms.

They wanted women to continue taking care of their families and husbands but they wanted to be able to do so more effectively by being empowered so that they could contribute more to their family's wellbeing. For instance, by being able to get better jobs to bring in more income.
