Why pregnancy and children education are not taken in account in those statistics? Does it mean it's not considered as a work (but some kind of "natural" effortless tendency for women)? Don't you see how your calculations are built on a erroneous basis?

In the U.S. using 2008 data, women were mostly working in education, nursing, as cashiers, or secretaries / administrative assistants. Must admit I was taken aback that the occupational distribution was THAT concentrated in these fields in this day and age.
In India women are missing in labour force due to increasing of their counterpart income and increasing in education.

More than 90% garments workers are women in Bangladesh. Now women's education rate is increasing day by day and they are involved in a high percentage in teaching and health management too.
Female labor force participation is mainly driven by the value of women’s market wages versus the value of their non-market time. Labor force participation by women varies considerably across countries. To understand this international variation, one must further consider differences across countries in institutions, non-economic factors such as cultural norms, and public policies. Such differences provide important insights into what actions countries might take to further increase women’s participation in the labor market.

The status of women after 1950 afterwards became almost the same all over the world, but before 1950 it was different, and I would sum up what it was in:
The Baalbek-Lebanon region.
The status of women before 1950
I- The situation of women and children before 1950
- The women would go to the fields from six in the morning to seven in the evening, and the boys would go to the "Hakura" and play what we cold today the Olympic Games, and the girls would gather together and learn to sew and Knitting.
- Dress of women: The dress of peasant women in films about Alexander the Macedonian is the same as that of women in our village, including my mother. Knowing that relations between Greece and the Eastern Mediterranean region were very strong.
- Childbirth: because the women worked during the summer, the birth of the children was done during the winter to take care of the children. For example:
My date of birth: 01-20, Date of birth of Jesus: 01-01
- Street cleanliness: it should be noted that they care about the cleanliness of the streets and that it was bad manners:
a - Eating in the street. b - Do not greet those we meet. c - Insults were strictly prohibited at home and in the street. d - Safety was absolute for everyone.
II - The birth rate of boys is more than girls
What is very important is that the inhabitants of my village, Shiites, despised those who plan to marry a second time and describe them as without morals and without honor and isolated them. And this habit undoubtedly dates back to the ancient pagan religions and the Christian religion adopted it.
I heard a report from the World Health Organization saying:
- The percentage of births to boys was higher than that of girls before 1950.
a - I did a little survey I found this report to be true, for example, we were at home before 1950: one girl and four boys.
b - In our village, the families betrothed the boys at a very young age, in order to assure him a girl, and from there came the marriage with a woman. My father got married at the age of 16 years.
c - It is true that it was extreme poverty and illnesses were widespread among the children, my grandfather remained alive among 12 children.
d - We used to eat meat once a year (when the dough).
--> Is it possible this was one of the influences on the gender nature of children?
