COMMENTARY

23rd August 2010
That's absurd to say that women or men are superior, sure men are generally stronger, and better at certain cognitive exercises, however women are generally better at other cognitive exercises and socialization. Saying one is superior is simply a case of chauvinism, be it from a male or a female. It's like saying a hammer is better than a saw or vice versa, it depends entirely on your criteria.

Jason, Kathy is right on target in everything she said. I did not believe it until my husband gave me a book called "The Natural Superiority of Women" and even then, my husband told me that the author understated how many ways women are superior to males and that woman are even more superior than the book stated and my husband is not a wimp.

The more women are in control the more we will see that the above is true and that women can do everything males can do and we can do it better. Women have been use to cleaning up after you males and we will clean up the mess males have made in society when we are given the chance with Gender development

Kathy, you're a fool. Men are vastly superior physically, and slightly superior mentally (excluding many feminized western men), as is clearly visible in most mammals. No need to deny reality. Good try though. Now get back to in vitro fertilizing yourself...

If we went just by the name, it should mean how much each gender has developed by our male oriented society would not want anyone to know that women have developed far more than males have in almost every category. We would not want anyone to know that women are far superior to her male counterparts would we although I do believe almost every woman knows it and in reality, most males know it too but will not admit that women are superior to the males.

What is the unit for the gender development? Is this a total percentage per whole population?

For women, Australia may be one of the most progressive countries in the world, in terms of educational options and earning potential.

Australia is fourth in gender income ratio, with a rate of 0.69 percent, has one of the lowest differentials of male to female earnings (14 percent), and the second–highest expected duration of education for women (20.1 years).

In addition, Australia boasts practically universal female literacy, one of the longest school life expectancies for women, and the tenth-highest percentage of university degrees awarded to women, including the 12th-highest percentage of advanced research-degrees awarded to women.
