Baden and Goetz (1998: 23) give further
examples of such clichés as:
"Women account for two-thirds of all working hours,
receive only one-tenth of the world income and own less than one per cent of world
property"10 (United Nations 1980 quoted in Baden and Goetz 1998: 23) or "Women
world-wide produce half of the world's food, constitute 70 per cent of the world's 1.3
billion absolute poor and own only one per cent of the world's land."11
