    The answer would be C) : Focused on the discontents of middle-class women. But generally speaking, Betty Friedan focused on the discontents of all classes of women, especially American women.

    Explanation:

    In The Feminine Mystique, which was published in 1963, Betty Friedan clearly described the dissatisfaction that ran through the minds of women in mainstream American after World War II, and how it was caused by the role that women began to play after the war.

    Women felt depressed because they were forced to be subservient to men in many aspects of life which women forced themselves to conform to, even though they didn't gain any sense of fulfillment. Betty Friedan stated that during the post-World War II period in U. S., women were not encouraged and expected to be anything more than mothers, wives, and housewives. She found out that none of her classmates were happy about living a life that was only tied to being a housewife.
