The correct answer is B) Southeast.

Although there was no map provided, the area of the country that largely failed to support the ERA was the Southeast.

We are talking about the Equal Rights Amendment or ERA. This US legislation tried to offer the same rights to all US citizens, no matter their gender. It tried to give the same rights to men and women regarding divorce issues, property, and employment issues, among others. In 1923, legislators Christian Eastman and Alice Paul introduced the amendment to Congress. As mentioned above, ERA was not well accepted in the Southeastern states and showed fierce opposition.
