Throughout time, the role that Women had in the early twentieth century to the present has changed drastically and it has changed for the better. Japanese American Women residing in the United States, has experienced the evolution of their culture, tradition, values and their role in society. However though it seems as if there is no time in this ever so rapid society, they still continue to pass down culture and tradition through each generation. Some key terms that are crucial in order to understand the essay are, Issei, or the first generation, Nisei, the second generation ,and Sansei, known as the third generation.Over time the Women slowly moved away form being the average Homemaker and transforming into a respected and valued member of society.

Japan had been a fairly unbiased matriarchal society until the Confucian ideas immigrated from China. Men and women both shared expectations in the Confucian system: loyalty and courage. Men were expected to be loyal to their lords while women were loyal to their family and husband. These ideas defined Japan’s society up until the end of World War II. Following the war, discrimination on gender was outlawed by the Japanese Constitution. Modern Japanese animated gender roles began to concentrate their ideas that in a society, someone’s identity is a part of their group’s identity. Women still control the house, home budget, and other household decisions, allowing men to devote themselves to their work. This is changing as more women start careers. “Hidetoshi Katō raises this point in his discussion on how ‘popular culture’ is a problematic term when translating it into the Japanese context. According to Katō, the Japanese scholar would translate the term ‘popular culture’ as taishu bunka; translated back into English, this term means ‘mass culture’” (Nausicaa.net, 2001). Ponyo displays multiple accounts of doing extraordinary things with her powers to benefit the progress of not only herself but others as well. An example of Ponyo helping others is when she and her friend Sosuke were riding in a boat around the flooded city. They come across a family of three (a father, mother, and baby) and the baby will not stop crying, she then uses some of her magic to calm the baby down and make it enjoy what’s happening.

Have you ever thought about how much labor the female workers in Japanese factories have done? Well, it’s a lot but it all pays off! Female workers in Japan worked long hours. One regular working day could be as long as 13-14 hours (Document B)! Luckily the girls got paid! It may have taken about 16 long hours of working, just to be able to buy one- pound of sugar (Document C). The girls spent a lot of the time working in factories but the lifelong relationships they made were priceless! Female workers in Japanese Silk Factories: Did the costs outweigh the benefits? For the female silk factory workers the benefits outweighed the costs for two reasons: My first reason is how the bonding relationships outweighed the costs because they were life

In the picture of an Indian textile mill no women were working and presented the dominance men had over women in the factories (Doc 10). Conversely in the Japanese mills mostly women had been working with few men (Doc 8). A comparative chart in both countries female workers displays how in India less than 25% of workers were female, yet over 75% of workers were female in japan which is a direct contrast in the work force of Japanese factories and Indian ones (Doc 7). Document 4 provides a written source regarding the high number of female workers in japan. The document expresses how the girls in the factories were a great salvation for lower class families and would explain the high number of female workers. Of course since the document is written by a Buddhist priest, his idea would be that these girls in the factories are the families’ salvation and so je pays no attention to the negative side of the girls because Buddhism prioritizes meditation and salvation over family needs. Another useful document would be an opinion of one of the girls being sent

Modern Oni have transformed over the years since its conception. They can look more eclectic than their ancestral cousins. They have been seen as benign and sometimes benevolent beings. They can still shapeshift but choose more sexually attractive females who are alluring and can also be naughty a child in some cases. The commercial interests that writers and artists face in the modern age has forced those changes to adapt to societies wants and views. Japan’s socio-economic evolution into one of the most industrialized nations in the world reflects the change in art.

With the arrival of the Allied Occupation, the United States of America introduced many reforms to Japanese society. “Equality of the sexes, woman suffrage of 1946, all inequalities in laws was ended and high schools became coed” (Friedman). Since the 1950’s women have sought more individualized means to provide for themselves with a sense of well-being. The most evolving aspect of post modernization has been women’s attitudes toward marriage and the family system. Women have started to wait till later in life to marry and have placed education and or work as top priorities. Once married, however, many women now choice to continue to work especially after they work of child birth. The women’s role in the family is evolving and become more

In her book, Factory Girls: Women in the Thread Mills of Meiji Japan, E. Patricia Tsurumi details the working conditions of women employed in the textile factories of Japan during the Meiji Era of Japanese history. Tsurumi attempts to give a comprehensive description of the women’s stories and struggles, detailing the reasons for which women worked in the industry, as well as the working conditions they faced. Tsurumi begins her text by describing the importance of the women’s work to the nation of Japan, and ends it by discussing the sacrifices many women made for the good of their country, effectively painting them as heroes. However, she spends the vast majority of her text detailing the poor working and living conditions faced by the women

As many people know, the Second World War changed the role of Japanese women. Before the war they used to be stay home mothers, and they had duties such as, keeping the house clean, and taking care of their husband and children. During the world war II, women changed their roles. Because a significant amount of man went to war, many women had to take their jobs in order to keep production in the country. Women started taking jobs like arms factories and coalmines. (1) In addition, new opportunities arise at that time for women because they could even join the army. After the World War II, women keep their freedom when it comes to having the right to choose whether they were going to work or be an stay home mother. Moreover, they also gain more

The second half of the comic is a conversation among two boys who discuss the changes happening in Japan based on what they see as well as what they hear from their father. Their discussion draws on the arguments made by Cinzia Arruzza and Anna McClintock, followed by the lecture in class on the Meiji Restoration. Arruzza unitary thesis argues against the idea of patriarchy under a capitalistic system, and that people’s differences are what capitalism feeds on.4 This indicated that most women were exploited, in that they were expected to produce children who would become soldiers or workers and contribute to the nation. McClintock addresses the many ways women were involved in nationalism, mainly as reproducers and participants of national struggles. 5 What McClintock argues is that nationality is passed through the maternity line, and women become designated as multipliers for the

According to Yuniya Kawamura , the writer of “Fashioning Japanese Subcultures”, the female-dominated Japanese subcultures often express a image of femininity, cuteness, and sexiness in an exaggerating way. One of the key element of the Mori Girl style is identified as “girlie” but it is different from the well-known Lolita’s girlie style. Mori Girls has it’s own version of “girlie” which Yuniya Kawamura described as “innocently childlike”. People often compare the more girl style and lolita style together because the general knowledge of both these two types of fashion is to be girly— in a different way. A Mori Girl who used to be a Lolita talks about the difference between these two styles: “Lolita styles are difficult to put together,

They are the ritualization in Japanese culture, women’s implicit expression of love, women’s hierarchy in 18th Japan, and how the landscape of Japan influences the prosperity of Geisha culture.

It is no secret that for centuries, the Japanese woman has been, to most observers, a model of elegance and graceful beauty. A picture of a kimono-clad, modest, and often silent woman has been plastered everywhere, allowing for the upmost passive subjection. If we look deeper into this image of woman, can we tell if this picture is complete? How do these women painted in representative images far in the modern world? The ideal woman in Japan is expected to be both a good wife, and a wise mother. Though these seem like reasonable expectations, there is a much deeper meaning to them that has shown signs of being outdated. During the 1800’s and 1900’s, women were subjected to society’s vision of them, and could not break free for fear of the

Gender socialization and gender roles have always existed in society. When analyzing gender roles, they are not always equal or consistent when comparing cultures, however, the expectations of females and males are often times clearly defined with a little to no common area. The Japanese culture is an example of the defined gender roles that change over time. According to Schafer (2010), because “gender roles are society’s expectations of the proper behavior, attitudes, and activities of males and females”, they must be taught (p.357). These roles define how females and males are viewed in society, their household, and workplace. When examining gender socialization in the Japanese culture, it is important to analyze how gender roles are
