In Elizabethan times, fathers decided who their daughters would marry. Marriages between members of the upper class were usually for love. Daughters showed great respect for their families by speaking out against their father's choice of a husband.
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. FalseExplanation
During Elizabethan times, fathers did have a significant say in their daughters' marriages. However, marriages among the upper class were not necessarily based on love. Instead, they were often arranged for political, social, or economic reasons. Daughters were expected to obey their fathers' decisions and show respect for their families by accepting their chosen husband. Therefore, it is incorrect to say that daughters showed great respect by speaking out against their father's choice of a husband.Rate this question:
