This article starts out wrong/ stereotypical, goes downhill (Laxmi is about more than prosperity. India is home to many religions). Gist of the article seems to be "how can we get women who are already working underpaying jobs to be exploited in Western-owned factories?"
-
Which leads to questions about the consequences of wrong metrics, and the people choosing them.

Women do more work in India than men. Who do you think collects rubbish, picks tea, farms rice, etc? The majority of the world's farm labourers are women. Collectively we work harder, for longer hours, for lower wages than men in every single nation.

27% richer is BS. Money isn't everything. ...So much wrong here. Inposing Western norms on India. Devaluing work in the home & family life. Ignoring the many problems of dual-income expectations on families. Etc, etc, etc. What a shallow claim.

This tweet might be the reason I don’t renew my subscription. It betrays a total ignorance of economics. Having everyone who keeps their own home become paid housekeepers for one another on the books is not an increase in economic activity. It is a shell game.

You really think having one whole gender relegated to one specific sphere of labor by arbitrary social norms is a genuine expression of comparative advantage man
-
I doubt he does but it's the reality for females in many places. When I was bringing up small children, I was often struck by how, if I was looking after somebody else's kids and home seven days a week, I could claim I 'worked' - but my own? No, it didn't count.

Working women still have to do household work, because they are expected to by their families. So not only do women make the hard choice of choosing 'family' over career, they don't get any financial stability out of it. They can be left uncared for by the same family.

Women work harder than men in India. Whoever has written this article should realise that not every work is done for money. India would collapse if women refused to work for a day.

Yo, Economist, you mean women in
#India wake up after sunrise, take breakfast, go back to bed, wait for lunch to get ready, someone brings it to bed, and spoon feeds them. They then take a siesta followed by an evening walk before taking dinner and heading back to bed 7*365?ধন্যবাদ। আপনার সময়রেখাকে আরো ভালো করে তুলতে টুইটার এটিকে ব্যবহার করবে। পূর্বাবস্থায়পূর্বাবস্থায়

They just need to be paid for all the work they already do.

Women in India do work. And if in other countries the women work like the women in India, there surely will be less crime and less terrorists. We can live with less money, a little poorer, I believe.
-
I don't know what India you live in but there are way too many crimes in india, it has one of the highest rape rates, and those are just the ones reported. Domestic violence is also prevalent, and that is because the women don't have any financial stability
-
Agreed. I didn't say, there will be no crime. But there will be less crime. I grew up in India, I have been to few countries and read about a lot of countries. My statement are based on my experiences. Women earn or not, but if women don't look after families, crimes increase.
-
That sounds suspiciously like putting the burden of "good society" on women.
-
Without women the society will be in all chaos. Women are essential in running family and character building of her children. You like it or not, burden of "good home" and hence "good society" was, is and will be on women. Men cannot do that naturally.
