Question

The study reported, “girls aged 5-15 in villages that received the recruiting services were 3 to 5 percentage points more likely to be in school and experienced an increase in body mass index, reflecting greater nutrition and/or medical care. however, there was no net gain in height. for boys, there was no change in any of these measures.” why do you think the author points out the lack of change in the boys?

Answer 1

ANSWER: The author points out the lack of changes in boys because she believes in equality. She believes that if the condition of girls are improving then the conditions should also improve for boys. She wanted to highlight the plight of boys and showed in her writing that in today's world, no gender should get privilege based on it. It should be same for both and this will teach every children to treat everyone equally.
