Summary)
Gender and Sex are different unlike what we
used to know. Gender is associated with society, sex is associated with
biology.
There are Cisgender and Transgender.
Cisgender is a human who coincident biology sex and gender with sociology sex
and gender.
And there are clear physiological
differences between the two sexes. Because yet how or why these differences
develop is unknown, differences could be explained by two ways. Scientific
disciplines argue that biological distinctions create these differences. More
progressive and diverse scientific communities argue that these differences
reflect existing gender inequalities.
Gender differences vary by society,
environment. Men and women’s differences involve work and occupations. Women
have earned less income than Men nevertheless in modern society women educated
and skilled like men. Another difference between men and women is educational
attainment. Alike thing mentioned in the front, for a long time, men have
educated than women.
Sexism is discrimination against people.
Sexism is based on four beliefs: there are only two sexes, one sex is superior to the others, men and
women are very different and that this should be strongly reflected in society,
language, the right have sex and the law, it can also refer to simple hatred of
men or women or trans people.
About gender differences, there are some
theories: Gender Socialization, Structural Functionalism, Conflict Theory, Feminist
Theory.
Race is difference in some way from other
humans. Individuals are classified into a racial group rather than their social
group. On the other hand, ethnicity refers social traits. Ethnicity focuses
more on group member’s past and culture shared in past.
Races were distinguished by skin color,
facial type, cranial profile and size, texture and color of hair but the time
goes on, definitions of race have changed.
About race, it is understood by two types.
One is that race is a social construct. It is based on artificial distinction created
by humans. The other is that race is based on nature (fuzzy sets, clusters,
extended families).
Racism can be divided to some ways.
Individual-level racism, structural racism, cultural racism, historical racism,
racial profiling, color-blind racism, genocide.
Mention & Question)
Racism is a really bad things. In Korea,
cognizing racism is maybe difficult so maybe we don’t think racism deeply. But
in other country like USA, maybe it is very serious problem. Confliction
between Black and White can be easily heard by newspaper. Sometimes it result
in murder. It make trouble and disrupt social integration.
What’s happen if there is no racism? The
crime arising by hostility of other race is not existed. Not discovered talent
people because of racism decrease. So racism is ultimately disappeared.
About racism, I have one question. Do you
think racism occurs in our society?
I think racism has happened in our society. Today, children in multi-cultural families remain discriminated against, although they are Korean born in Korea. Also, when we look at foreigners whose skin is slightly dark than us, we think of illegal immigrant. I think that this is a racial discrimination that occurs within our society.
ReplyDeleteI read your posting well. I think racism occurs in all society. In Korea, some people neglect foreign worker especially from east Asia. And sometimes, american kill korean in America but there is no reason.
ReplyDeleteI will answer your question.
ReplyDeleteRacism exists in our society.
There are also discriminatory and derogatory terms in Korea that refer to foreigners.
Some people sometimes use discriminatory words in the presence of foreigners.
Although it has improved compared to the past, Korean society still has a different perspective on foreigners, especially Southeast Asia and black people.
Yes, racism is occuring in our society. For example, there is discrimination about Southeast Asian. The most Southeast Asian come to Korea to earn money. But many Southeast Asian doesn't get working visa. They are illegals. This weakness is weapon of Korean employers. Korean employers exploit illegals by using weakness of they and give a little pay.
ReplyDeleteAnd most countries of Southeast Asia are developing countries. These things intensify discrimination about Southeast Asian.
