Answer
A
Temperance restricted women’s rights to consume alcohol.
B
Economic dependence on males made women feel secure in their positions.
C
Abolitionists believed in the freedom and rights of all people no matter their gender or race.
D
Increased access to education allowed women more opportunities to work outside their homes.
E
Greater employment opportunities provided women with financial independence.

Explanation

Abolitionists’ calls for freedom and equal rights helped women argue that those principles should apply regardless of gender, as well as race. Greater access to education prepared more women for work outside the home, while expanded employment opportunities could give women their own income and greater financial independence. Temperance did not mean women’s rights were restricted, and economic dependence did not make women feel secure.
