    D. It characterizes the County Attorney as someone desirous of showing respect to women, even if he does not mean it.

    Explanation:

    In the play "Triffles," by Susan Glaspell, the Country Attorney is described as a man who gives polite attention or respect to women. However, in the play he does not give importance to what women thought and felt. In fact, it is a male-dominate society in which the men consider that a kitchen contains unsignificant elements or "triffles." However, the items found actually provide the evidence for the women to solve the case.
