B should be the ans. Here women is being correctly compared with women.
The problem with D is usage of both 'While' and 'Often received' introduces redundancy.

In D, “that” is referring to “the craftwork.” Let’s substitute “that” with “the craftwork” and see whether the sentence still makes sense.
The craftwork of many women settlers in the nineteenth-century American West was accorded low status, while the craftwork of the Native American women of the Plains tribes often received public recognition, wealth, and prestige for their craftwork.
Can u see the issue?
IMO B
