“PINKIFICATION”!!



What`s Pinkification? Firstly I thought. Pnkification, it means that every girls are regarded by the public that they crazy about pink color objects. Because they think pink color is very cute and makes them happy and gives people fluffy image like a princess. This time two mother in England complained about a boycott of the store selling many pink objects. Because they think that pink gift send “narrow and damaging” messages. And they pointed out that are educational toys for boy on everything from action and adventure to science. I think so too. Many girls toys are cute but are not practical, just pretty… I think that it connects to a sort of prejudice. And this image deeply affects a position of woman in society. However it`s really difficult to change such a viewpoint.
Nowadays man who put on a pink item, for example T-shirt, shoes, cap etc…, increases more and more. Probably they start to regard pink color as fashionable one. So the “pink” image by the public may a little bit change.

Do you like skinny woman?

Now, it`s very serious problem that people especially woman, goes on a excessive diet. In England, in a BBC Survey, one in three woman said that they felt overweight. And they are nervous of their body image. Besides some people would consider having plastic surgery. Of course, not everyone think so. But a staggering 10% said they hate their body and more them half of the young woman have a desire of a plastic surgery. I know the feeling and want to understand them. But, now by a progress in a skill of a plastic surgery, it`s possible to have an operation more easily with reasonable cost. So the number of people who make light of a plastic surgery has increased. I think that it`s ridiculous to do so easily.

Body Image


What figure is ideal? What is a point to attract an opposite sex? In recent years, a lot of people, especially woman, care about their body image. Therefore, almost every day, we can see any ad or TV program about a diet machine or medicine by mail-order firm. They believe that being thin is an attractive image. But, actually, real ideal form may be not “thin”. The recent statistics found that a fat woman draws man because their body image, a round line and a soft feel , relieve their brain. In other words, this body image has a power which heals man`s mind. Of course, it`s not necessarily so. However recently, the TV entertainer is very popular by young man. For example Kanako Yanagihara. She is a TV performer and is launched out as fat character. I think that her performance is very funny and she is pretty woman. Certainly, although I`m woman, I have derived a sense of inward security from her. Now, in serious depression, body image demanded might be like her one.

Public to monitor CCTV from home

Firstly,I was surprised that people in UK can earn cash by monitoring commercial CCTV camera in their own home!
They not only watch but also start to make money. In Japan, respecting the privacy, definitely impossible! The proposer says that they want to combine a crime prevention with the incentive of winning money. I can`t understand the idea that they want to earn cash along with crime prevention. And it has a possibility that the scheme bring a new criminal. But it`s the fact that it`s difficult to save citizen in CCTV camera merely working. I always think that private camera for watching like a convenience store can`t hardly prevent a crime in advance. It hardly help before matters. So, this new project isn`t necessarily useless.
