The speaker responds beautifully to Prejudice.

Explanation:

"An Obstacle" by "Charlotte Perkins Gilman" explains women's struggle to achieve equality with men. The author explains how a woman needs to cross a path that is as hard as a mountain to achieve equal rights as a man. She explains how a woman is burdened with number of responsibilities in her life.

Her path is not easy and she convinces hard to Prejudice to make him understand her efforts. When he was not able to understand her and she lost hope, she got up again and continued her journey fearlessly ignoring him. So, speaker teaches every woman to work for her best and for her future.
