In Reed v. Reed (1971) the Supreme Court found that:
  1. Sexual privacy was an absolute right.
  2. Women should receive equal pay for equal work.
  3. Arbitrary sex-based classification was unconstitutional.
  4. Companies should provide extra training for women who did not have as many educational opportunities as men.
  5. “No-fault” divorces were constitutional.
Explanation
Answer: C- The Supreme Court ruled that gender could not determine who was appointed the administrator of estates. This overturned an Idaho court ruling that declared that men should always be preferred over women in estate administration. The Reed decision made it so legislators and regulator had to provide a reason for the preference of one gender over another if there was to be such preferences made.
