Women's Suffrage Movement's main goal was to obtain the right to vote (suffrage means right to vote). Option B is opposite. Option C: Ending discrimination was broader, but main goal was voting rights. Option D: Equality with men was part, but primary goal was voting. So A.

Answer:

B. conservation of natural resources, control corporations, and consumer protection
