2.If #GoHomeAndCook is a synonym for inefficiency why can’t it be used for male politicians or for male workers. By analogy all male chefs may be deemed as inefficient since they cook
Unfortunately, this is phrase is reserved only for women to denigrate their agency & abilities

In discussions on household & community, these phrases are often directed at women offering their POV. Implication is a woman’s place is in the kitchen, & she shud not poke into things that she does not have the intelligence, right or social standing to do so

For ages women have been asked to go to kitchen, attend to kids, go inside if they attempt to express views, go out to work, or assert agency
This happens across levels of education, economic strata, and rural and urban geographies. Degrees of course may differ

The fact is that if women do not cook clean, rear and perform the role of caregivers, the entire economy is going to collapse.
Today across countries, there is talk of the need to support, recognize & respect the contribution of caregivers in the care economy

This is important for all to understand especially politicians. Simply putting women on pedestals or dispensing freebies of cylinders & subsidised rations is not going to work. We need to explicitly recognize the contribution made by them to run the economy

The care economy is growing as demand for childcare & Eldercare is increasing. Carers support 1 Bn people + including children under 6, elders, people with disabilities. High-quality care encourages ECD, enables higher quality of life, & provides meaningful work

The pandemic has made gender disparity worse, pushing mns’ of women out of the workforce as default caregivers for children & elderly. They also face a lack of support, limited benefits, recognition and are even subject to abuse

Most care work is non-paid & therefore not included in GDP which considers only paid work in formal market. This underestimates GDP. ILO estimates if care-work were valued on hourly minimum wage basis, it would amount to 9 per cent of global GDP.

India’s average female daily wage was 59 % of the male wage in 1993-94 and improved to 72 % in 2018-19, with differences being higher for casual work. This pulls down the GDP and increases the gender disparity

This is not helping India’s growth prospects. Among the drivers of this decline is a decrease in women’s labour force participation rate, which fell from 24.8 % to 22.3 %. It is estimated that earned income of women in India is only one-fifth of men’s.

This puts India among the bottom 10 globally on this indicator. This is bad for the economy. Considering the economic contribution of women is 17% of India’s GDP, less than 1/2 the global avg. the govt. needs to prioritise

The moral of this is, that everyone including politicians need to reflect before making casual & misogynistic remarks for any women, professional or homemakers.
If u can eat, work, & prosper, the secret behind it is some caregiver & never take that for granted

It is perhaps in recognition of the unpaid work that caregivers do which are mainly women, political parties have now started including wages for housewives in their manifestos

Good sense prevailing with @ChDadaPatil 's apology to @supriya_sule
Unfortunately the #GoHomeAndCook mindset is fairly endemic in umpteen households in India
Mindsets will change only if the value of caregivers and the contribution of the care economy to GDP is recognized🤲
