This is the main point question from the Gilman Passage
Can some one please explain why (A) is incorrect? I was stuck between A and D, but chose A because D does not say ANYTHING about there being two different theories, which was basically what the whole first paragraph was about. I get that the word usage of "central doctrine" in (A) is a bit weird, but is this really the reason why A is incorrect? I would also like to know if its normal for the Main Point question to just leave out a whole paragraph? Thanks so much

A is incorrect because the passage never mentions anywhere that Gilman's theory contributed at all to the central idea of the "latter group". Instead, it seems the central doctrine was already well established and she merely identified with it and used it to further her own opinions. I would say it's pretty normal for the correct answer choice to not be exactly what you would expect. The fact that there were two separate theories really only plays a minor background information role in this passage.
