      Here is a good example in development of saying "gender" but meaning sex....https://twitter.com/DaveEvansPhD/status/1171763570826104835 …

      Good nutrition is good for girls' education, right? It increases learning. But it also leads to menstruation at earlier ages, which can increase school dropout in some places. https://www.dropbox.com/s/ma3qf02dbh4hi2v/Khanna_JMP.pdf?dl=0 … New evidence from #India by @MadhulikaKhanna #EconJMP #EconJobMarket pic.twitter.com/xxeVE0oJTl

      Its fine, here. Everyone knows that @MadhulikaKhanna really means sex in the paper.... but on the other hand @PlanUK have a whole programme on how menstruation affects some school pupils, but it has thrown away both the words 'girl' and 'female' to describe the pupils it affectspic.twitter.com/N9EycNozd2

      And Plan is an org that says it's *all about girls*....and yet it's promoting the idea that there is no objective reality of being female. You cannot stand up for girls while at the same time making it unsayable that female children are girls and will grow up to be womenpic.twitter.com/K3XbYhdh6b

      @MForstater I'm asking Evans what they mean by good nutrition. Bc I'm making a thread and 1 thing I tweeted was that women if not for so many chemicals in food and cosmetics in our ancient past would be having their menarche at 18. Menarche is starting earlier in the last 100yrs

      Bc I want to put that in my main thread, but it seems to say that if girls have better nutrition, it's worse for them to stay in school bc we know many girls don't have access to period items. Here's the threadhttps://twitter.com/ariana_erbon/status/1158794046275543040?s=19 …

      Ok, let's get this started! I'm trying to raise awareness of issues that only affect female bodies. I'll bring links to more info on each issue. I will start from what are considered big issues that barely anyone seems to care at all. Let's do it!

      No it's not saying that. It's just saying that the data shows that they tend to drop out of school more. Shouldn't leap to conclusions as to why (eg social norms?protection from pregnancy? practicalities related to periods? The paper doesn't investigate cause or solution )
