It is said Japanese culture is the mascline culture.
I agree. Japan is the male-dominate society.
In Japan, the cities, towns, and villages that have
the law related to the gender eaquality, are 28.6% in 2012.
And the Gunma prefecture (my hometown) is 8.6%.
My hometown is located in local area. And it is known that
people in Gunma is conservative.
Maybe, one of the reason why Japan has not been developed enough
is the gender gap that still remains in Japanese society.
I think is is not easy for women to advance in some companies still now.
Interestingly, I hear Japanese woman gets married with western cultural
man more often than the case Japanese man gets married with western
cultural woman. Japanese men do not know how to behave in the
lady-first way. Women in the western culture may not look Japanese men atractive. I am not sure.
However, I help my wife with washing dishes on weekend.
And I often wash bath tub on weekdays.
In some cases, the wife who manages family finance
controls the husband.
Actually, my friend was blamed for expending money by
his wife after he gets married.
And his wife started to control his family budget.
He always obeys his wife. (He has two dauters and says he has spent a happy life.) ^ ^;
There are many cases in Japanese family.
