Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Concept:
This question is based on feminist thinkers and their important ideas. Each statement is associated with a particular thinker.

Step 1: Match statement A.
The idea: \[ \text{Women is not born but created} \] is connected with Simone De Beauvoir. She argued that womanhood is socially constructed. So: \[ A \rightarrow III \]

Step 2: Match statement B.
The statement: \[ \text{Those who do not move do not feel their chains} \] is associated with Rosa Luxemburg. So: \[ B \rightarrow I \]

Step 3: Match statement C.
Gerda Lerner argued that patriarchy is historically constructed. So: \[ C \rightarrow II \]

Step 4: Match statement D.
Judith Butler is associated with the idea that gender roles are not biologically fixed. So: \[ D \rightarrow IV \]

Step 5: Final matching.
The correct matching is: \[ A-III,\ B-I,\ C-II,\ D-IV \] Hence: \[ \boxed{\text{(C)}} \]
