The School Gender Situation of Japan

Abstract

In people’s lives, talking about some topics, they find that what they have ideas which are not in common with others. For example, in the past, it was common that women did only household duties and men went to the workplace. However, in the present, companies and the government have urged women to enter the workplace and construct systems to make women’s employment conditions better. Albert Einstein said common sense is the collection of prejudices acquired by age eighteen. By age eighteen, we usually spend much time in school, so it supposes that we get the points of view of gender in school education. According to research and my experience, in the school curriculum, there are several facts which can create a sense of gender gaps in our minds: a post in a school with a system of dividing boys and girls.
