Sub-Saharan realm is the region south of the Sahara Desert in Africa.

It's asking whether most people consider men or women more capable of ruling a family.

What does remains the rule rather than the expception.

In my book ti says "Much of Subsaharan Africa especially rural areas is dominated numerically by women"

Would the answer be A
Ms. Sue
No.

Just because there are more women, doesn't mean that women are dominant.

Remains the rule rather than exception means that it is much more common.

Well I know it's not female dominance so it's not B. And it doesn't talk about C or D in the book.
So I thought it was A because it can't be E.
Ms. Sue
I'm sorry, but my brain malfunctioned. :-( A is correct.
