      your decimal marks are inconsistent and you dont define the „ratio“

      Edit: also, the title makes it more confusing. 

      „Labor force participation rate“ is its own metric and it is a %. So its a ratio of the two percentages instead?

    2. Now, is it because they *can* or because they *have* to because it gets harder and harder to sustain a family with a single income?

    3. Presumably the numbers are percentages (ie number of female labour force participants per 100 male participants)?

      For some reason it seems to top out at the 90s in all countries and never moves above that. Ukraine doesn’t count as it’s a war zone.

      Is this in full-time equivalent? In other words, is one woman employed part-time for a man employed full-time counted as 50 or 100 on this map?

      Hilarious that there was basically no noticeable change in Poland for 35 years while the DACH countries caught up

      Italy is surprising though. Didn’t expect it to be so low

      moldovs would not be who id think about for the most equal nation in labor ratios

    8. I may be bad at reading graphs but does that mean for every 100 men there are say 84 women participating in labor?

      I love the judicious choice of colour, poland scrounged up a 1.6% change but that got them a whole new shade of blue

    10. We used to be able to feed a family of 4 on a single salary, now it takes two but we call it victory.
      More gender equality in society overall is great, and women definitely need more, but „more women in the work force“ was the best marketing trick since the „[Torches of freedom](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torches_of_Freedom)“.
      Big business marketed more financial independence for women and got more workers in the market to drive salaries down.
      We could have had a society with equal share of male and female workers, with their corresponding stay at home partner; heck even alternate or two part times.

      The fact that the capitalization of World Bank Group in the bottom left of the images differ *totally ruins it for me*! =P

      I interprete the second chart to mean that Ukraine has no women. No I will not investigate further or examine this belief.

    13. What an awful way to show this data. I think if you gave like 6 options this would easily be the worst
