Whats an easy way to get a good GDI?

Make sure your men are performing development wise just as badly as the women.

So if a country has say 40% literacy for women, as long as its 40% literacy for men...it will score perfectly in that component of the GDI.

Whereas a country that has 40% literacy for women but 80% for men will score worse.....even though the women are just as worse off as they are in the first country.

This goes for every metric

But of course its "extremely important subject/ranking" and " people are unable to realize it's significance" (mostly because they again fail to look into how its calculated and blindly believe high GDI = high women's progress).

I mean Burundi has a GDI of 0.919, but its women fare so badly, its just that their men fare almost equally as badly as well.

In fact the UN GDI (different from this study's particular GDI) is simply the female HDI/ Male HDI.

Female HDI for BD = 0.556
Male HDI for BD = 0.599

Female HDI for IND = 0.549
Male HDI for IND = 0.671

http://hdr.undp.org/en/composite/GDI

So even though females are broadly the same HDI in both BD and India (BD better by 7 points). India gets a worse GDI because Indian men do a lot better than BD ones (India better by 72 points).

But of course "NGOs" blah blah blah....as though the patterns are going to hold concretely with time....that's the real explanation, not the way the GDI has this flaw within it (and has been talked about in multiple papers).

BD women are doing sooooo much better than Indian ones (even taking BBS to be 100% true) right?

===================================================================

Teenage pregnancies are still a bad issue in BD, just sayin:

How are either derailing the thread @WebMaster ? I am explaining some clear flaws with the GDI measure by taking time to post how it is calculated.

Are we making the BD subforum a full echo chamber now? We cannot criticize other people's previous claims in the thread at all?

@LA se Karachi @django @Zibago @Hell hound @The Sandman

Lol,that was brillant. @Nilgiri

Its almost as good as the regular French grunt MRE (im almost not kidding lol).

Gotta love the accent..."cutta saerloin" @Blue Marlin

Funniest MRE explanation I've heard on this side of the pond is "meal refusing to exit"....ours are mostly really terrible (canadians officially call it IMP).

SO people from my region are not good looking

I don't know which region you belong to, but I think your Pathans stand out in a Pakistani crowd, prolly because most of them are taller than your average Pakistanis and better looking.
That presenter by the way either had a fake accent or was a Pathan himself. The ones he interviewed were prolly punjabis.
There's a marked difference in the accent of Pathans and punjabis.
