its B

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

B. After all, women at Court do not spend their time hiding modesty behind fans and screens.

Step-by-step explanation:

'The Pillow Book' is a book written by Sei Shōnagon. The book was written when Sei was serving as a court lady in the courts of Empress Consort Teishi.

The statement that best supports the idea that the court gave greater freedom to the women is in option B. Here Sei Shonagon talks about Service at Court and narrates that men saw women in courts or palace with prejudice perceiving them to be wicked. It is because the courts gave them freedom to look at men face-to-face without fear or hesitation.

Therefore, option B is correct.
