Role of Women in our Society
Ali Asghar Jatoi's presentation discusses the role of women in society. It argues that women play a vital role in human progress and are equal, not inferior, to men. Islam grants women an equal position in society and recognizes the importance of women, giving them a dignified role. As mothers, women have a unique responsibility in raising children and being their first teachers. While women's roles have expanded in modern times into many fields, the literacy rate for women in Pakistan remains low and needs to increase.

Today, women like Asma Chaudhry and Asma Sherazi have prominent roles in television news. The document also discusses stereotypical portrayals of both men and women in media and the impacts such representations can have. It argues that countertypes promoting positive representations are needed.

Role of women in development
Women have historically played important roles in development but were often overlooked. In many societies, women were primarily viewed as mothers and housewives, though women in Islam have long worked in various fields. Today, women worldwide perform most of the agricultural work but own very little land. In Pakistan, women have made progress in many areas like education, healthcare, and politics. Rural women are major contributors to the economy through farming, livestock, crafts and household duties. Urban Pakistani women now work in diverse fields including engineering, IT, sports and banking. Women play key roles in economic development through food production and small businesses. Some influential Pakistani women include Fatima Jinnah and Benazir Bhutto. Women also contribute to defense through roles in

Women's Rights/Issues
This document discusses the history of feminism and women's rights in the United States. It begins by outlining how women had few legal rights in the 18th and early 19th centuries. The cult of domesticity emerged in the 1800s, promoting ideals of piety, purity, domesticity and submissiveness for women. The Seneca Falls Convention in 1848 marked the start of the women's rights movement. The 19th amendment granted women's suffrage in 1920 after decades of campaigning. However, discrimination and unequal treatment persisted through the mid-20th century before the second wave feminism movement renewed advocacy for women's rights and equality.

Esther Clift - Older People find hope in the informal settlements of Nairobi,...
1) The study examined the role of faith, spirituality, and religious organizations in the lives of older people living in informal settlements in Nairobi, Kenya. Interviews with older residents found that faith provides hope and meaning during hard times.
2) Religious institutions and organizations provide both spiritual and practical support to older adults, such as food aid and social connections. However, barriers like poverty prevent some older people from participating regularly in faith-based groups.
3) The preliminary results indicate evidence of syncretism, such as blending beliefs, among some residents. The discussion focuses on implications for understanding and inclusion of older adults and recommendations for training faith-based groups to better meet their needs.

Women of china
Women in China have seen significant changes in their rights and roles over time. Historically, women were deprived of equal rights and were expected to serve men as slaves or concubines. Practices like foot binding further restricted women's mobility and suitability for marriage. In the early 20th century, women's rights advocates called for reforms, and the Nationalists and Mao banned foot binding. Today, women theoretically have equal education and marriage rights, but issues remain, such as the impacts of the one-child policy leading to sex-specific abortions and a disparity in the gender ratio, contributing to problems like increased abductions of women.
Representation of women in electronic media
In modern era, electronic media is significant part of our life & a key to change the society.
The role and status of women in any society can be studied through the images of women which the media projects.
But the presentation of women in the media is biased because it emphasises women’s domestic, sexual, consumer & marital activities to the exclusion of all else.

EditaN. Laurel's China ppt presentation19may2011
U.S. companies sending female employees to work in China face significant challenges due to attitudes and gender discrimination against women in Chinese culture. Centuries of cultural beliefs portray women as inferior and unsuited for leadership or management roles. However, statistics show more women gaining such positions in China in recent years. U.S. companies can help female expatriates succeed by preparing them culturally and legally, and enforcing policies against harassment. While discrimination persists, exposure to other cultures may gradually improve attitudes toward women in China over time.

Women Protest Movement USA
The women's rights movement developed due to growing dissatisfaction among women with traditional gender roles following World War 2. During the war, many women had taken on jobs formerly restricted to men, giving them a taste of independence. However, postwar society encouraged women to return to being homemakers. Over time, factors like higher education rates, more women in the workforce, and new social movements empowered women to demand equal rights and challenge societal expectations. Influential figures like Eleanor Roosevelt and Betty Friedan played key roles in advocating for women's issues and establishing organizations like NOW to advance women's civil rights.
Gender Equality
Gender inequality has historically disadvantaged women through discrimination and lack of legal rights. Women faced obstacles in professional life, education, healthcare, and political participation. They also experienced high rates of violence. Feminist theories analyze how gender differences, inequality, and oppression impact women's status in society. While progress has been made through movements and legislation, gender inequality persists in many areas around the world today.

Ode to joy – The harm of Chinese feudal and traditional culture
Nowadays, the pace of our life is getting faster. In this modern cultural world now, most people have the same lifestyle as the Chinese TV series “Ode to joy”. The drama tells a story of five different classes urban women who live on the 22nd floor of an apartment building in Shanghai. In my opinion This Chinese TV series is a microcosm of contemporary society, it shows most of the real and cruel situation in China. Such as the huge gap between the rich and the poor, power and money can basically solve almost all problems, the solidification of social strata, and of course, one of the most important things is that some people still have deep-rooted traditional feudal thoughts. One of the articles I found online describe “Ode to joy” as a “down-to-earth drama that faithfully reflects the mindset and lifestyle of China’s urban middle class, which has gone through tremendous changes over the past few decades”.
One article is basically talking about some debate in social media about many perceive to be an obsession with virginity. There is a report shows “sex education, traditional moral thoughts and double standards on virginity propel the “virgin complex” in China. There are still over 50% people who vote for sex after marriage. Secondly, the social phenomenon of man is always more important than woman. Man is everything but woman is nothing. Fan Shengmei has a totally different family background than the other four ladies that put her in a difficult situation. Since they had different level of education and family background; this makes them have different lifestyles.
In “ode to joy” season two, After Qiu Yingying broke up with her manager boyfriend, then she met an IT guy Ying Qin and they fall in love. One day, Ying Qin found out that Qiu is not a virgin, then he suddenly changed his attitude. In China, “one set of social pressures is giving way to another, as young people are shamed both for having too much sexual experience and too little” (Yimin). Qiu met the same difficult as many other females in China. However, I have been studying abroad in Canada for 5 years. What I feel most strongly is the openminded and freedom of sexual culture, especially for women, who can choose to love freely. Most of the people will think that the situation in China is unbelievable and unacceptable. But the fact is that China still been through a lot of challenge to change those citizen’s traditional mind. In “Ode to joy”, After Qiu learned that her boyfriend had been beaten, her reaction was very interesting. She started to self-questioning, because she thought it was all her own fault.

For their final project, second semester Northern Virginia Community College Composition students (ENG 112) work in groups to create presentations that introduce, analyze, and draw a conclusion about a significant American cultural artifact, (a trend, a celebrity, or anything that significantly impacts American culture). Students work together to build a persuasive argument using a combination of text, multimedia, and visual design. Students develop a claim about the negative or positive impact of the artifact on the demographic of American culture it affects. Alternatively, students may discuss what the artifact says about our culture.

REMOULDERS
This document discusses violence against women in India and proposes ways to promote women's empowerment and ensure their safety. It notes that while women have made achievements in various fields, systematic discrimination and issues like inadequate nutrition, limited access to education/health, domestic violence, and sexual violence restrict women's freedom. It provides statistics on crimes against women like rape, dowry deaths, and female infanticide. To address this, it calls for recognizing women as equal partners rather than subservient beings, reducing poverty and gender injustice, and eradicating social evils through sustained awareness of women's rights.
Asian Immigrants
This document discusses Asian American stereotypes portrayed in Hollywood films. It notes that historically, Asian actors often faced "yellowface" casting where white actors portrayed Asians. Common stereotypes included the "yellow peril" trope depicting Asians as a threat. The character of Dr. Fu Manchu is discussed as an ignorant portrayal meant to instill fear of white supremacy being challenged. More recently, films have made efforts to avoid stereotypes, though full representation remains an ongoing issue. The document analyzes how media depiction influences societal perceptions of Asian Americans.
