Gender Issues around the World Women's Networks International Instruments Special UN Bodies As a consequence of the greater emphasis signaled on human rights over the past decades, many UN summits in the 1990s sought to place issues of democracy, justice and rights on the development agenda. In the context of this worldwide process of democratic consolidation, many women's movements were born and sought to press for more equity between the sexes and address gender disparities. The term Gender became popular in the 1980's as a replacement for "women and development". Gender is a social construct that asserts that the expectations and the responsibilities of men and women are not always biologically determined. Advocates of this approach claim that gender more easily accommodates race, class, ethnicity and male - female power relationships. Gender theory is applicable from the household to the international economy, but the most frequent applications of the theory are to the household and to employment.

March 06, 2008 Girl Talk: Biology and Language Skills Posted by Fred Tung Scientific American reports on a study attempting to explain the biological basis for why girls seem to have superior language skills compared to boys. As a father of two sons experiencing some of the trials and tribulations of pre-school, I notice these stories. Apparently, girls completing linguistics tasks show more brain activity in areas specialized for language encoding, while boys show activity in areas relating to visual and auditory functions. What does this all mean? [I]t implies that boys need to be taught language both visually (with a textbook) and orally (through a lecture) to get a full grasp of the subject, whereas a girl may be able to pick up the concepts by either method. Subjects ranged from 9 to 15 years of age. The next question is whether these differences persist with age. Permalink Gender Issues Science Comments (2) ... TrackBack (0) January 09, 2008 Gender Diversity in US Corporations Posted by Lisa Fairfax Dan's post regarding gender diversity on boards makes some very significant points, particularly about the importance of critical mass. Many scholars worry that without critical mass, women will be marginalized, less willing to voice their opinions, and in some cases, experience pressure to conform. But Dan's point about critical mass also reminded me about the relative lack of critical mass in American corporations.

@import "http://osocio.org/css/osocio.css"; Social advertising and non-profit campaigns from around the globe Me Not Meth Posted by Marc Drugs Gender issues Health This new campaign made by GMMB Better World Advertising and Anita Santiago Advertising is called “ Me Not Meth ”. It is a project of the California Department of Alcohol and Drug Programs seeking to prevent crystal methamphetamine use across the state of California USA. The current stage of the campaign is aimed at gay and bisexual men, and other men who have sex with men (MSM). The campaign will officially launch next monday. Advertiser: California Department of Alcohol and Drug Programs Read more Post comment Casa Family Day Posted by Liz Losh Gender issues President George W. Bush and former First Lady Barbara Bush are featured in new public service announcements for Casa Family Day , a group that advocates the educational and public health benefits of families sitting down and sharing the evening meal together. Although many American social scientists see a correlation between good parent-child communication or healthy life habits and having a strong family dinner ritual, not all of them are convinced that there is the causal connection that this campaign seems to imply. Feminists and members of non-traditional families may also see a certain amount of normative sexism in the campaign, particularly in the spot with the Chief Executive, which assumes that mothers necessarily do the cooking at the family meal.

All Alone in the Night Understanding is a three-edged sword... Main Gender Issues Archives February 23, 2007 Why (Most) Men Shouldn’t Blog My wife recently pointed me to an article with an interesting and politically incorrect title WHY (MOST) WOMEN SHOULDN'T RUN In this article Michael Boyle questions the wisdom of long distance running for women. He advocates interval training rather than marathons because of the higher potential for injury for women relative to men. The crux of the article is described in the paragraph below. Why do I say this? Two simple reasons. Anatomy and physics. My favorite two sciences. No matter how hard you try or how well you eat, you can't change your skeleton. The problem with most women and running comes down to something they call Q angle in sportsmedicine. I won't bore you with the details, but it boils down to this. Wider hips make for narrow knees. This angle of hip to knee creates problems. Problems are magnified based on the number of steps. The average person gets about 1500 foot strikes per mile. Do the math on your 5-mile run. Running produces forces in the area of two to five times bodyweight per foot contact. Do we need more math? The article (originally titled as a question Should Women Run?

Gender Issues As a member of the Senate, I am privileged and honoured to have a voice in making positive changes that will bring equality to more Canadians than ever before. As a successful Asian woman, I feel I have a role to play in helping to promote the interests of women everywhere. In assuming this responsibility, I follow in the footsteps of many determined women who came before me. In fact, I owe a debt of gratitude to five women in particular: Nellie McClung, Emily Murphy, Henrietta Edwards, Louise McKinney, and Irene Parlby. These women, who have come to be known as the "Famous Five", challenged the conventional interpretation of "personhood". Up until 1929, this term applied only to men. Since only "qualified persons" could be appointed by the Governor General to the Senate, women were persons only in the meting out of pain and penalties but not in the important matter of rights and privileges. These women took their case all the way to the Privy Council in Great Britain where, on October 18, 1929, it was ruled that women were eligible for Senate appointments. This was a major step toward equality for women in this country. The influence of these five women continues through the work of the Famous Five Foundation, an organization which I support. The Foundation recently erected monuments of the Famous Five in Calgary and in Ottawa. They are also engaged in promoting the leaders of tomorrow - women who will act as role models for future generations. It is hoped that the spirit of the Famous Five, living on in memory, will help to further the cause of gender equality.

They don't have to fight for it. "men learn as boys that they can go out and change the world," and are thus more likely to change situations to their liking. Gee, I don't remember learning that? Did I absorb it by seeing male heroes in action movies? Or is it possible that this is baloney? Men expect big salaries. Women don't. Men initiate negotiations four times more than women.
