A re-analysis of Ciacci's (2024) "Banning the purchase of sex increases cases of rape: Evidence from Sweden" Journal of Population Economics reveals major issues. A year ago, reproducers Adema, Folke, and Rickne found coding errors driving the paper's key results. Let's unpack ⬇️

Posting music is always a good idea, and in these times, especially so. It's a Multani kind of Sunday afternoon for me. Listening to the greats. First up: Pandit Ravi Shankar youtu.be/fB9gMVtDFKs?si…

Localities in Delhi have markets w shops & offices, with 1 toilet common to the entire market. Filthy, stinking, unusable. Women can't work in these locations. But due to what norm? Male "norm" of treating the whole surrounding area as a public urinal! ⬆️urban infra to📈urb FLFPR

🚺 Access to public toilets isn't just a sanitation issue — it's linked to women's labour force participation, as noted by eminent economist Ashwini_Deshpande 🧻 That’s why Sabar Institute & Azad Foundation launched a 1st-of-its-kind survey in Kolkata, focusing on informal women

Looking forward to your results. Please share! Need to repeat this as often as possible. Improve urban infrastructure to increase female labour force participation.

Ashwini_Deshpande Thank you, Professor! We deeply value your support. We look forward to sharing the findings soon. Echoing your words — improving urban infrastructure is essential to increasing female labour force participation

And the second Multani that followed this yesterday is an all-time great. Best of the best. गोकुल गाँव का छोरा by the inimitable, one and only Pandit Bhimsen Joshi: youtube.com/watch?v=aXeGc4…

Women working in such places and those with long commutes learn to "hold" until they get home or to a usable toilet at the risk of their health. There is also a rising incidence of UTIs among working women.

Creche, daycare, feeding rooms, accessible and clean toilets are important for working women across the class spectrum. It's time we stopped envisioning only males as workers. It's time we incorporated a gender lens on infrastructure in all workplaces.

Oh my God! When will the men’s toilet be shifted from the center of the corridor to the end of the corridors of Supreme Court? Highly offensive to women . The Chief Justice of India to note.

Remember this? #ShahRukhKhan𓀠 representing his beautiful country India 🇮🇳❤️ When a man in Egypt trusted an Indian just because of SRK. That’s not just stardom that’s legacy. Badshah for a reason 👑

Professor Khan's social media post is about discrimination, and while he has been arrested, there is a Minister who used communal slurs at a public rally on the same issue, who is running free. scroll.in/latest/1082481…
