Correct Answer: men


Solution : The second option is the correct choice.

The context suggests that women and their supporters have fought for the same rights as a specific group. Men is the most suitable option, as it reflects the contrast between women's struggle for rights and the reference to men's kindness in the previous sentence.

The meanings of other options are as follows:

  • Everyone means all individuals collectively, without a specific focus on a particular group or gender.
  • Universal is pertaining to or affecting all people or things, irrespective of gender or specific characteristics.
  • A politician is a person engaged in politics, typically involved in the governance and decision-making processes.
