Which of these explains how japanese prosperity affected women in japanese society?
a. women gained more independence.
c. women lost most of their independence, but retained a few domestic rights.
b. women lost their independence.
d. women were not affected by japanese prosperity.

I chose letter a. Women gained more independence. After 1947, women gained more rights such as to hold property, inherit estate, marry and divorce freely and vote.  However some practices remain even with the changes after the war.  It was only in recent years that there has been a shift to their favor.
