Discrimination and prejudices against Chinese women

Discrimination and prejudices against Chinese womenThis news report exclusivelyow be focusing on the variation and prejudices again gender especially females in chinaw ar. It will make pass readers details on how they are being enured and discriminated in the past as well as the present time. This paper will also cover solutions on how this problem could be rock-bottom by cooperating with the government by educating the people throughout the country and exonerate males and females to have equal rights. office II THE ISSUES AND WHO ARE INVOLVED correspond to Matt Rosenberg, 2010, the population of chinaware is around 1.3 billion this figure is establish on the registered citizens that we know. Until now we are uncertain of the actual figure of chinaware population as on that point are babies that are not registered soon enough with the government due to the one-child policy that mainland mainland mainland China has. One-child policy (Matt Rosenberg, 2010) was created in the class 1979, to limit the growth of communist in China by ensuring every(prenominal) couple having one child only (Jeffery Hays, 2008).Females are being discriminated in traditionally Chinese culture as males are thought to be important because they will be looking after property inherit land and passing on the family crap. But females have less abridge ahead than males as they will be married off from the family. In China (Adam Brookes 2001), female babies are being discriminated even before they are being innate(p). Researchers did an annual statistics report showing that a million of girl fetuses are being terminateed, prior to that, tens of thousands of girl infants are being abandoned as well. From ancient practices (Eric Baculinao, 2004) , if a Chinese family without son will face s puketness and neglect as Chinese believe that male offspring act continuity of lineage and protection in old age With advances in medical technology in that location was a widesprea d of cheap and man-portable ultra-sound scanner in the 1980s, that allowed parents to choose their baby call forth, this kind of practices are called pre-natal sex selection. If the parents discovered that their baby is a girl they will choose to abort it and try again for a boy.Researched done by (Eric Baculinao, 2004) on deficient Girls, showing the trend of boys and girls being born from a Chinese-tank report. We can imbibe huge significant difference in number of boys and girls being born in recent course of instructions. And by looking at the table we can mind that parents prefer boys than girls.Year boysGirlsRatio ( Boys against Girls)Early 80s108.5 light speed1.09 119901111001.11 120001161001.16 1Present1201001.2 1(According to a Chinese-tank report)SECTION III WHY IS IT IMPORTANT FOR US TO TALK ABOUT IT?According to Eric Baculinao, 2004, in the course of instruction 2002 a glance conducted in a central China village shows that out of 820 women there are more tha n 300 of them undergo abortion before. And one terzetto of them admitted that they were trying to select their babys sex. (Sheryl WuDUNN, 1992) In a few decades China has make everyone richer but in some ways, China also made deportment difficult for the nation 565 million women. In China, women are being discriminated in the area of jobs, housing and land location. For example, whenever company is hiring women they usually look for animal(prenominal) attractiveness of the women as they can be used as an blow up in offices or lure businesses for the company. And they usually have lesser chances to get hiked to higher position in their working life.A survey conducted by (Peoples Daily Online, 2010) on females graduates, showing that 21 percent of female schoolchilds graduating this year found jobs by end of February, much lower than the male student percentage which is 29.5 percent. From the percentage we can obviously see that females are follow behind in the employment rates . Beginning of 2009 (China Human Rights, N.D), Jiangsu provincial preparation department did a random survey on 100 employer building block to find out which gender they prefer to hire. The result was 53% will hire male graduates and 35% 36% wanted female graduates, the shack did not have any gender restriction. From the percentage from the survey, we can see that out of 100 companies more than 50 companies prefers to hire males than females. They are being discriminated even further, as even if they have outstanding grades and having many cogency certificates it is no better than an identification card of a male graduate. And i feel that the discrimination against females in China is addressed.Beside from being denied access to groovy jobs even though they had good qualifications, there have been cases of interior(prenominal) emphasis against females in China. According to some survey on domestic madness (Jeffery Hays, 2008), there is around 30 percent occurring in familie s. The All China Women Federation (ACWF), (Cheng Yingqi, 2010), annually received 40,000 to 50,000 complains since 2004, usually this cases involved husbands acting violently towards them.(Percentage of Females Domestic Violence Victims)From the table, we can see that out of 473 females domestic hysteria victims around 37.6 percent are between the ages of 31-40 years old and 33 percent of them only had Middle school education background. And they usually commence physical, psychological and sexual abuse an average of 7.4 times a year (Cheng Yingqi, 2010).SECTION IV WHERE CAN WE START TO FIX THE PROBLEM? on that point are several ways that the discrimination and prejudice against the females in china can be improved. Example, the All-China Womens Federation (ACWF) was created in April 3, 1949, and dedicated for Chinese women of all ethnic groups in all walks of life. (ACWF, N.D) The federation created laws and regulations with the help of government to safety women rights and pro mote equal rights among men and women in all areas. The China natural law center hosted a shop class on anti-discrimination laws with Sichuan University law school. (Yale Law School, 2008) The workshop explore ways which that American approach combating against discrimination, this would provide helpful brainwave for Chinese academics, lawyers, and activistsseeking to reduce discrimination in China.Several separate organizations in the humankind are also trying to help females in China. For example the UN Action for women (Department of Public Information, 1996), in 1995 after the Womens conference China provided training for 10 million women in rural area. These training give women in rural area some basic education as most of them are illiterate. The Anti-Domestic violence Network of China law (N.D), narrow in domestic violence against women and eliminating gender based violence. They also promote gender equality as well as social development in the community.SECTION V CONC LUSIONHaving research about the discrimination of females in China and what has been done so far to help let off the problem. I feel that there is still much effort undeniable on the China governments enforcement in discrimination against females. Even though there are organizations lending a helping hand for women in China there will still be discrimination against them. The possibility of removing discrimination against females in China is still not possible yet, even though there are laws created to aid them as well as campaigns move not to discriminate girls. For example, the Family planning propaganda sends a message saying Boy or girl, it is the same Both can carry on the family name (Research-China.Org, 2005) and the message is far most prominent. With all this aids and campaigns helping females in china, I still strongly believe that discrimination against females in China is still an issue and cant be solved so easily.SECTION VI REFERENCE LINKBy Matt Rosenberg (2010), China Population, on tap(predicate) from http//geography.about.com/od/populationgeography/a/chinapopulation.htmBy Matt Rosenberg (2010), Chinas One Child Policy, functional from http//geography.about.com/od/populationgeography/a/onechild.htmBy Jeffery Hays (2008), Preference for Boys in China, usable from http//factsanddetails.com/china.php?itemid=126HYPERLINK http//factsanddetails.com/china.php?itemid=126catid=4subcatid=15HYPERLINK http//factsanddetails.com/china.php?itemid=126catid=4subcatid=15catid=4HYPERLINK http//factsanddetails.com/china.php?itemid=126catid=4subcatid=15HYPERLINK http//factsanddetails.com/china.php?itemid=126catid=4subcatid=15subcatid=15By Adam Brookes (2001), Chinas Unwanted Girls, usable from http//news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/1506469.stmBy Eric Baculinao (2004), Chinas grapples with legacy of its missing girls, on tap(predicate) from http//www.msnbc.msn.com/id/5953508/ns/world_newsBy Sheryl WuDUNN (1992), Women face increase bias as china focuses on profits, available from http//www.nytimes.com/1992/07/28/world/women-face-increasing-bias-as-china-focuses-on-profits.htmlBy Peoples Daily Online (2010), Sexual Discrimination still exist in Chinas job market, available from http// incline.peopledaily.com.cn/90001/90782/6909178.htmlBy China Human Rights (No Date), Gender Discrimination, available from http//www.chinahumanrights.org/CSHRS/Magazine/Text/t20100520_593164_1.htmBy Jeffery Hays (2008), Problems face by women in china, available from http//factsanddetails.com/china.php?itemid=104HYPERLINK http//factsanddetails.com/china.php?itemid=104catid=4subcatid=21HYPERLINK http//factsanddetails.com/china.php?itemid=104catid=4subcatid=21catid=4HYPERLINK http//factsanddetails.com/china.php?itemid=104catid=4subcatid=21HYPERLINK http//factsanddetails.com/china.php?itemid=104catid=4subcatid=21subcatid=21By Cheng Yingqi, China Daily, (2010), Experts urge curbing domestic violence, available from http//www.chinadaily.com.cn/china/2010-11/26 /content_11612576.htmBy All-China Womens Federation (ACWF),No Date(N.D), available from http//www.women.org.cn/english/english/aboutacwf/mulu.htmBy Department of Public Information (1996), UN actions for Women, available from http//www.un.org/ecosocdev/geninfo/women/dpi1796e.htmBy Yale Law School (2008), The China Law Center Co-Hosts Workshop on Anti-Discrimination Law, available from http//www.law.yale.edu/intellectuallife/6198.htmBy Anti-Domestic Violence Network of China Law Society, No date (N.D), Strive for a world without violence for women, available from http//www.stopdv.org.cn/en/about.aspBy Research China.Org (2005), Why Girls Are Abandoned in China, available from http//research-china.blogspot.com/2005/10/why-girls-are-abandoned-in-china.htmlEND
