Abstract

When other measures for economic welfare are scarce or unreliable, the body mass index (BMI) is a biological measure that reflects current net nutrition. This study uses a difference-in-decompositions framework to analyse how women’s BMIs varied with the advent of early twentieth century social feminism. Late nineteenth and early twentieth century US economic development improved the relative status of women relative to both men before and after the transition to social feminism. Twentieth century women’s BMIs were higher than nineteenth century women relative to men with the rise of social feminism. The primary source of female–male across-group variation was height and nativity, indicating that there was net nutritional progress for women relative to men associated with changing cumulative net nutrition. The primary source of female–male within-group variation was nativity and socioeconomic status, indicating that there was net nutritional progress relative to women born before the transition for women born after the rise of social feminism association with socioeconomic status.

19世纪末和20世纪初的社会女权主义和妇女选举权:使用分解差异的男女净营养比较
当其他衡量经济福利的指标缺乏或不可靠时,身体质量指数(BMI)是一种反映当前净营养状况的生物学指标。本研究使用分解差异框架来分析女性bmi随20世纪早期社会女权主义的出现而发生的变化。19世纪末和20世纪初,在向社会女权主义过渡前后,美国的经济发展提高了女性相对于男性的相对地位。随着社会女权主义的兴起,20世纪女性的身体质量指数高于19世纪的男性。男女跨组差异的主要来源是身高和出生,这表明女性相对于男性的净营养进步与累积净营养的变化有关。群体内男女差异的主要来源是出生和社会经济地位,这表明社会女权主义兴起后出生的女性与社会经济地位相关的女性相对于转型前出生的女性有净营养进步。JEL代码:C1, C4, D1, I1, N3
