Cursive sex discrimination in Japan
These days, I've been reading a lot of literature about reproductive health and rights, and keenly felt that Japanese women are still discriminated. But the discrimination is so subtle and dodgy that one feels awkward to make a direct opposition.
To inform someone in concern of the Japanese women's situation, here is a good information on the web site below which deals with some of the human right problems in Japan. It was written 7 years ago, but I am afraid most of thier claims are still current.
