I said saying only 20% of women are involved in labor in India is incorrect. That number is much much higher if you take those into account.


The statistic is saying that 20% of women in India participate in the workforce as it is defined.

Are you trying to say that the 60% of Chinese women includes women who are homemakers and aren't in the workforce as it is defined?


You’re wrong. Every country would have 99% labor participation rate if you count those. It’s not meaningful

The fact is only 20% of women are not getting paid for their labor. It’s a sign of huge lack of development progress
