Some figures about Gender Inequality

Being polite

Requests

At work we often have to ask people to do things for us. We may need their help urgently or it may be a minor matter. The language we use to make such requests will be different, depending on the importance of the thing requested. We are more formal and less definite if we are asking another person to make big efforts for us.

Our language also, of course, reflects the relationship we have with another person. If we are asking a stranger or our boss to do something for us, we choose language which is much more formal and less definite (weaker) than when speaking to a colleague in our office or a friend.

GENDER INEQUALITY

GENDER INEQUALITY

Gender inequality refers to unequal treatment of perceptions of people based on their gender.

It appears from differences in socially gender roles as well as biologically through chromosomes, brain structure, and hormonal differences.

Like you could see in the other class with Mari Carmen,men and women are really different but I think only at the appearance.

Gender inequality comes from many years ago when the women were under the power of the men. At  the beginning of the time , the men were the only people who could work or make important things like taking part in the politic, government or do hard work .

 

In many countries the changes are not developed because the women are under the men. They can´t study or work but in Spain, today everybody is equal. 

A woman can work like a judge, doctor, builder and in other side a man can take care of the children,they can work like a cleaner,etc.

               

After that, we can think that the difference or uniqualities are only in our mind. We must work hard to get the equality for everbody because anybody  is different because born girl or  boy. 

And now, we are going to play a game to analyze how men see a woman and how women see a man.

FREEDOMS AND RESPONSABILITY

Freedoms

Freedom is the ability of conscience to think and acts how we want. It's  is a right that everybody has, everybody is FREE. 

 There are many types of freedom:

  1) Physical freedom, everyone has to have it ; an example would be the feeling that a prisioner has when he left the prision.

2)Spiritual and mental freedom (psychic) .Freedom of thought, to have our own ideas and express them, but without falling into anarchy.

We are free only in the positive sense, only when we are conscious, when we realize our actions and can be responsible.We don't choose freely when we get carried away by fear, fashion, habits or caprices, in this situation we don't think before we act and this could be an irresponsible act.


With freedom comes responsibility.

Responsability

Responsability means doing my best to take care about things around me that need to be done. Is a value that is in the conscience of the people, which allows them to think and value the consequences of their actions, always in the plane of morality.

Freedom with responsibility is when your freedom respects the other's  freedoms. It ended when the freedom of others begin.

For example you are free to drive your car freely around the city but you don't have the freedom to go at high speed and run over everyone and you have the freedom to express your opinions but you don't have freedom to insult the others.




Our freedoms must be responsible, if you don't act with responsability your freedom become IGNORANCE.


People who are irresponsible for their actions don't think before they do or make something.


Responsible Do’s

THANKS FOR YOUR ATTENTION!

THE RACISM

The purpose of this entry is to address the issue of racism as it appears in our society today, keeping in mind the modern scope of our world and the difference between today’s racism and the racism of the past.  My hope is to open my reader’s eyes to things they perhaps haven’t considered before, to encourage them to be aware and watch for the ways they encounter racism in their own lives, and inspire them to act on the issue rather than tolerate it.  Racism is something that affects everybody, and it is something that has almost become an engrained part of our culture as a whole.  I also hope to encourage my classroom to talk about this issue with friends, family members, and the people in their lives, to share their thoughts and ideas about it and hold open discussions.

I became interested in this topic when I started to notice racism in a lot of things.  I would read a newspaper article, see something on TV, listen to a conversation or look at some advertisements, and the more I looked around, the more I thought about it.  I also began talking about racism with some of my classmates at school, and we each shared stories about many different things.  We talked about things we saw on the internet or heard on the news, things we had heard other people say, ways that we noticed other people reacting to us because of our race, and even ways that a person’s race affects the way we react towards them.  I felt as though my eyes were opened to a very big problem that I myself had not even really considered before.
