Women's roles in "Trifles"

All three male characters in the short play "Trifles" have a misogynistic view of women. In the excerpt we are analyzing here, the Country Attorney quickly judges Mrs. Wright, a woman being accused of murder, when he notices the dirty towels in her kitchen.

In his opinion, women are supposed to keep a spotless home as their domestic role. He does not wonder why Mrs. Wright did not take care of her home. He does not fathom that maybe she was miserable, that maybe that was not the life she wanted for herself.

With the information above in mind, we can choose option A as the correct answer.
