Dear Nyrororin thanks again. I am making sure that I save this information so I do not bother you Again. You yourself are an amazing woman. One thing-- My Japanese friend worked for the same company after college--many years ago until her retirement a few years ago. Her hours were excessively long. One day she made a strange comment. she said: "I am a MAN". which I thought was very odd because she is so feminine. she said that so few women would have the responsibilities that she had in the company. She had been widowed after ten years of marriage, so a friend cared for her two children when She was at work. her work ethic is still strong-- she is studying here in UK and seldom takes any time off. Her home had been swept away in an earthquake at one time. she tells me her present home is like a rabbit hutch. made of wood and paper. I have never known anybody so serious about working and studying and especially her DUTY. |

If only they were in the "western" world! I would have to say no to all the above! This is not to say there is not exceptions to the rule. Are women ever treated equally-- ANYWHERE? Im probabley on your side but this begs clarification on equal. |

When it comes to equality in the workplace there are many areas that can be changing at different paces. Opportunities may be equal, while respect is not at all, and salaries could be coming closer to parity though still lacking. "Equality" is just to broad a term for any reasonable analysis in my mind. There is also the disparity between business policies and actual practices. Very few companies truly reflect their official corporate image when you get down to the rank and file employees. Only an open mind and open heart can be filled with life. ********************* Find your voice; silence will not protect you.

I think what you said is entirely true, but what it doesn't consider is that the women themselves don't see themselves as equals. This is what I meant by it, my girlfriend honestly doesn't see herself or other women as an equal to men, hence why Suki would kill her lol This is at the root of the problem for sexism in Japan. |

|HA HA James why? because they are Superior to MEN. LOL. Just joking--we are different anyway aren't we. I think that the wars created opportunities for women who often took over the tasks previously done by men. Certainly here in UK many women did. Working in the munitions factories, working in the fields- in the FORCES etc etc. Women are not usually as physically strong as men-- but if the right opportunities are created-- they can do many things. Seeing videos of how hard the women worked in Japan on the fields-- really hard physical labour------------ THe poverty immediately following the war, similar to many countries--My japanese friend worked in the rice fields from a very early age Certainly if given good opportunities women are extremely capable in many lines of work-- including the professionals. I do believe that we think differently from Men in many ways. My husband has such a logical mind and lateral way of thinking. Not saying that many women do not also have that kind of mind of course-- but I am but a simple uneducated woman HA HA. I have not read the books re-- men are from Mars and women from Venus-- but I enjoy being a female-- apart from the "CURSE" that we females have to deal with which often can effect our emotions. I do believe that it is the encouragement and determinedness to AIM and Achieve an ambition that can make an enormous difference-- and if the world out there is prepared to give women similar opportunities as men in often-- previously restricted fields of work-- career-- that they really are very capable of MUCH. What have great women in Japan achieved if given that chance? |

It had disappeared by the downfall of the economic environment when the economy of Japan was benign though there was a climate that improved woman's employment. The charge to employ the man and the woman equally cannot be worked out. 20 years passed after economy had failed...... The employment environment will improve if it recovers though there is no expectation of recovering. Cryptanalysis is necessary for you. set a goal:English at the same level as Johan Cruyff |
