The First World does its advertisement very well. People who are not from the First World think the First World is similar to heaven. Deep in their minds, they always want to live in the First World. In South Asia, people call this "Bidesh," which means some other country or abroad. Here, they meant the First World.
In my job some trainers came from India. I knew India is a very strong country comparatively other countries in South Asia. One day, I heard those trainers talking to themselves about going abroad (Bidesh). They were laughing at their poor luck. They wanted to go abroad, and their luck brought them to B(Bangl)Desh. Like they asked God to take them to Bidesh (Abroad) and God put them in Bangladesh.
I didn't feel good. Just wanted to say that Bangladesh has very good travel spots. They are of very good quality, very low cost, very good service, have very good sight views, anybody will love them.
I believe in making globalization work better; we must make sure the
organization United Nations should perform their work without taking any
donations from countries. Because grants often run the UN, we felt the
organization needed to take direct and strict action against some big
countries. For example, to improve the climate, we must take steps to prevent
those things which are helping to destroy the environment. But big governments
are not responding the way they should, and the UN (United Nations) is not
forcing enough to make them do so.
It's a fact that the world is generating trillions of dollars
through international business transactions. As James Tobin suggests,
implementing a tariff on these transactions (Ellwood, 2015) could provide the
UN with a substantial and fair funding source. This system would ensure that
no single country can dominate the UN's operations, as contributions would be
proportionate to a nation's level of international trade.

We have many movies for adults and children, but we don't have many movies that are good for teens. Then what will these teens watch? They don't like children's movies. They will watch adult ones, which are not suitable for their brain and mental stage.
We need good movies for teens that will encourage them to prepare for adulthood, enjoy their teen years, work in whatever suits them, and have good manners toward both children and adults.
They are in the middle stage, just before adulthood. At this time, they are losing interest in their childhood games and toys and feel interested in adult things. They need an age-appropriate entertainment system. They can't play at the playground with children and can't join adult-related games.
This is when they get misguided. That's why we have to be very careful to take care of their physical and mental health and guide them in the right ways. We have to arrange enough age-appropriate work, study, and entertainment elements, including movies.
I asked Shafeen how much he remembered about my father. Shafeen said he didn't remember much, which made me sad. Then he said he remembered my dad used to take him to the supermarkets and buy toys. He also remembered that they liked each other very much.
Shafeen was 2 years and 8 months old when my father died. I was surprised that he still remembered him.
Gender Inequality as a social problem: Sexism means the
female gender will be subordinate to the male gender. Patriarchy refers to a
society controlled by men culturally, economically and politically. According
to Statistics Canada, 2006, in 2004, 49% of Canadian women aged 15 or over 15
worked for payment. Women are constantly discriminated against because of their
gender.
-Defining Sex and gender: Some people use
the words Sex and gender have the same meaning. Sociologists believe they are
different. Sex means biological features and hormonal and chromosomal
attributes of males and females. Before or after birth, we identify males or
females by their sex organs and genes. Gender means those social attributes
that dictate the differentiation of male and female behaviour, thoughts and emotions.
-Social Problems and Social Policy:
Trans-gressing gender norms: Transgender people has right to be declare
themselves as a male or female as they wish. The University of Victoria first
declare this. Transgender people faces a lot pressure and discrimanination from
the society.
Biological and social bases of gender roles:
Generally we believe that boys has more aggressive and harsh and girls has soft
movement. This is actullly not biological issues. These differences are created
by the society for years after years. In the same way man’s work and woman’s
work have been devided.
Contemporary gender inequality
-The gendered division of paid work and the
wage gap: Society assume that women are physically not as strong as men so,
they will be paid less. But in real world, women are working just like a man or
better than that.
-Sexual harassment: : In work place many
women faced sexual harassment. Sometimes society take is as a man’s common
behaviour. It’s not. It’s actually show of their power and misusing of it.
-The Glass Ceiling and the glass escalator:
There is an invisible barrier created by the male management in companies. They
don’t want any female to go to the top positions.
-The double shift: Though men and women
both work outside but at home responsibility of the women remained same. They
have to work in both place. Where men has excused themselves by saying they are
working outside.
Theorotical Perspective of Gender: Funtionality (Instrumental and Expressive
tasks), Neoclassical Economic (Human Capital), Conflict (Gender division of
labour), Faminist liberal Faminism (Equal rights), Redical feminism
(Patriarchy), Socialist Faminism (Gendered Job Segragation), Multicultural
feminism (Double or Triple jeopardy), and Post Mordanist Faminism
(Deconstructing Gender).
The rise of Islamic Faminism in the Middle East: In United
Arab Amirat. A muslim women became Imam. Who give advices how to live like a
Muslim. Which was the man’s job, generally all over the world.
