Solution

The correct answer is C. "gynocentricity".

Here's why:

The question is asking for an analogy. The relationship between "male" and "female" is a gender-based one. "Androcentricity" is a term that refers to a perspective in which male concerns, male attitudes, or male practices are central, and others are either ignored or marginalized.

So, we need to find a term that describes a perspective where female concerns, attitudes, or practices are central. The only option that fits this description is "gynocentricity".

Therefore, "Male" is to "female" as "androcentricity" is to "gynocentricity".
