Turns out there are major gender gaps in employment in African countries, they just aren't related to the birth of a child as is the case in higher income countries 2/2

Lesson: Don't be embarassed you somehow missed part of the curriculum. See if you can find someone to walk you through a familiar example (pay them if you need to) so you can focus your energy on your brilliant ideas instead of trudging through condescending comments on stackexchange and statalist 🙂

I sent a paper to a mentor to review.She saw the excel lines in the background &said "no more" (literally drew a big X 😅).She had her RA use my data to prepare some decent tables.This made the automated Stata-to-Latex tablemaking process way more accessible/ less intimidating.I've never looked back!

Reminds me of @aeacswep.bsky.social webinar with Esther Duflo AER Editor a few years ago. Totally changed my approach to refereeing.

Paraphrase: "stop thinking a paper must be perfect-it's not the word of God. Instead focus on what we can learn from it"
