Weblog Assignment #5

I visited the infoplease web site. In this site, the table indicates a Gender wage gap in certain occupations and is expressed as a percentage divided by percent women and earnings ratio. It shows that women have smaller percentage in some jobs with estimated earning of above $34,000. It also says that women typically hold lower-paying jobs and work in traditional female occupations such as register nurses, teachers and social workers.

It is a very interesting data that female bus drivers are almost half of workers. There are a few female bus drivers in Korea. Women are gradually more common in jobs that are held by men than they were. Status of women in our society is also getting higher than past years. However, we would know that occupations in which the majority of workers are women are fixed to some jobs. Therefore, I think that a range of jobs for women is still narrow. This site includes lots of knowledge you need. If you are interested in this site, you will find it

The Slow Lane web site is the online resource for stay-at-home dads. The site is a comprehensive collection of resources including helping support, advocate, and inform dads. You can also find many references dealing with issues of fathering, family, and being a stay-at-home dad. There is more information like how to start a play group and how to connect with others and links to other dad related sites.

Being a stay-at-home dad is not easy in our society since males are pushed toward having an employed job and making money. I think this kind of site is very helpful to SAHD and provides their community. It is also an important way to solve a problem of single dads that they could talk about their feeling and difficulties to each other. If you want to go to the site,

I visited the site http://www.slowlane.com/ "resource for stay-at-home dads".
This site is about home dad. Men be a housemom so stay at home and to take care their children.
These days got the new book about "The Man Who Would Be Dad". The book says dad part is changing, how to be today's father. Men's are hard driven, inexpressive, pragmatic creatures, devoid of strong emotions or the capacity to nurture, always more at home with work than with their families.
All of them are written for staying at home dads including local and international dad orfanizations, single dads, new dads, and divorced dads. So men's are understanding their wives.




My opinion
The dads change thesedays such as stay at home, new dads, kind of single dads, and divorced dads, they are increasing.
This site is to help those guys, give an information, the same quality each other, to live more easy and comfprtable.
They make contact, so various thing is usefull for them. I think they can release their stresses and strains for their sociaties or families so this site is good for todays dads. I will be like this site.

I visited here.
This web site descibes Arnold Schwarzenegger. He is a famous movie star and politician of California, you know. There are many many of Schwarzenegger's photographs!You can see a lot of his amazing muscular body and movie photos in which he appeared, also you can hear his voice! In addition, this site states about him in detail, so you can know about him very well. This site also connects to the Arnold Schwarzenegger Italian fan club.

My opinion
I'm interested in this web site because Arnold Schwarzenegger is one of my favorite movie stars! He is cool! I think everyone knows and likes him. However, everyone doesn't know about him in detail, like me. Actually I didn't know about him very much when he was a body builder, but I can know about him in detail through this web site. Now he doesn't appear in the movies so I'm sad, however I wish him success with the political movement. I recommend this web site for not only Arnold Schwarzenegger's fan but also everyone! Check this site!

According to this web site http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/4785824.stm it states that It is a paradox that women achieve an overall better educational level than men but get the oppsite reflection of job level. For example, Eighty percent of women complete secondary education compared to 75% of men,more than fifty percent of university students are women, but only women have a third of managerial jobs from the chart. After that, they give some measures to solve this problem: First,setting up gender equality in Europe. Moreover, reviewing all existing EU gender equality laws and increasing awareness of gender inequality, In addition, ensuring that gender equalitly has be cinsidered in all the jobs.

In my opinion, it is true that it is easier for men to find jobs than women. Because in our education it is a stereotype that men usually lead the class in school, so now, for most of men it is easier to find the managerail job than women. Even though that women's school scores are higher than men's scores, but the idea that men should lead all companies is inside all of people's hearts. Afer the survey that it is a paradox women have fewer job chances than men evern if their educational level is not less than men. Therefore, the gender institute give some measures to ensure that gender equality can be considered in all policies.

I visited Bad Girls Do It. This web site is about girls who have kill someone. The main pictures of women who kill. On the left you can see names of the women who kill someone on the killers master list. When you click the names you will see stories.

In my opinion, there are some human rights abuses in this website because on the list are murderers who have already been excited. Their relatives may be discriminated against still by this information. Certainly, offenders need to take their punishment. But this website is a highly controversial page.

I visited the Schwarzenegger photo gallery. There are 340 pictures of Schwarzenegger, who is　an actor. If you can click home, page would return to main page. Name of this website is A.S.I.F.C. It means Arnold Schwarzenegger Italian Fan Club. So the article is written in Italy. In most pictures, he is naked to the waist and smiles sweetly.

In my opinion, Schwarzenegger emphasizes the man. Cetainly, his figure has attracted a lot of women. It influences a major impact on the other men. Many guys try to build up their bodies like him to be popular with girls. People consider muscle to be one arm for men. These pictures may cause a gender gap.

I saw Barbie website. You know, this site is presented for girls, and there are a lot of dress-up dolls who are beautiful princesses. Girls can change dolls’ dresses. Moreover, they can choose the color, theme, and shape of dresses or clothes that they want. They can also buy these dolls and their clothes by the internet order. They seem to be spending lots of time in this site.

In my opinion, feminists are likely to criticize this site, because they maybe think that it gives girls bad influences. I mean, girls who saw this site may think that beauty is good and I want to be beautiful like these dolls. These thoughts are easy to connect to the typical gender socialization in which beautiful women are more likely to be admired. But these opinions are the viewpoint of feminists, so in general, this site gives girls a lot of fun.

Weblog Assignment#3

I visited Bad girls do it. This site is about women who kill. There are The Killers Master List, Killers By Category, and so on. When I click each murderer's name, I can know what the lady did and who is killed with pictures. In addition, this website accepts information about killers. We can research on specific murders or classifications.

In my opinion, there are some human rights abuses in this website because on the list are murderers who have already been excuted. Their relatives may be discliminated against still by this information. Certainly, offenders need to take their punishment. But this website is a highly controversial page.

I visited this site here.This site discribes about that EU's genger gap still wide open. European women do better in school than men, but get lower pay nad fewer top job. Women have higher education than men, but they can't earn much money and can't do nice jobs. If you visit this site, you can see about share of female managers, gernder pay gap and part time wokers with each aonytry's graph.

My opinion
When I visited this site, I was purprised at these topic because I don't know about EU's gernder gap is still wide open. I think that it is unequal for women. However, actually in Japan, gernder gap is still exist. In japan, also women can't get much money or do good jobs. Therefore, we shold reform these unfair terms.

I visited this web site. It is written about how EU's gender gap is still wide open in this article. There are a lot of women who go to university in EU. However, their salary is lower than that of men, and they can't get the same pay as men. Also, even if women reach better educational levels than men, it is difficult for them to get a good job. Moreover, in this article you can see some bar graphs of each country which are about gender pay gap, share of female managers and part time workers. They are useful in knowing which country has more gender gap.

My opinion
This site is interesting for me because I didn't know much about EU’s gender gap in business. In Japan, also women can’t get the same opportunity as men in business. Furthermore, women are lower position than men. These are common problems between EU and Japan. Therefore, we have to struggle with this problem to get equal situation in business.

human nature

I looked at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_beings . The article describes how human beings are different from other animals. Humans have developed brains, language and reasoning. The article talks about how the bodies of humans are different from other animals. For example, humans have different limbs for moving things so that they can use tools more than other animals.




In my opinion it is good article to read so that people can know about human nature. First, the human brain is a complex organ to become developed because intellect distinguishes humans from the animals, also have self – expression and the exchange of ideas which means human are social in the case. Finally, humans have a lot of phenomena and do well in their life so that humans can be interested in music, religion and something like that. In conclusion, in my opinion, it is a good article about being human.
