What are pros and cons of propaganda
tino4ka555 [31]
<span>There's not really any pros for propaganda because essentially what you are doing is lying to get someone to believe something. I guess you could say a pro is that gullible people will believe you, but that's an unethical pro. The cons are that it usually causes much controversy in a society where there's not supposed to be a bias in the government. Propaganda in its true form is never a good thing. It is unethical in the sense that it takes advantage of people who are too lazy to do research and quick to believe what someone tells them. One example I like to use is many of these independent "news" websites. On both ends of the political spectrum, left and right, you find websites that have articles so heavily weighed down with that wings propaganda that true news becomes less and less visible. Occupy Democrats is one textbook example of that. Their articles are so left leaning that you read an article and are immediately left with a left leaning impression. Same goes for a lot of right wing websites. I'm not going to say "always" but propaganda 99.9 percent of the time is not good. Instead of people doing their own research to decide their view on something, propaganda </span>tells<span> people what they should think versus the </span><span>asking </span><span>people what they think</span>

Gender inequality is a serious issue faced by women in Japan and China. Explain the challenges that women face in these countrie
Anna007 [38]

In Japan, gender inequality is apparent in the different aspects of social life. It ranked 21st our 188 countries in the gender inequality index. From family to political representation, women face difficulties. The country's family values has been shaped by the female as the homemaker and the male earner. It makes it challenging for women to break from what is historically typical and rise to be part of the "visible" paid economy.

In China, earning inequality has become a notable issue as the women were paid only 75.4% of what men were paid. The women have not been given the same education and work opportunities as the men do. The women have suffered occupational segregation, unemployment or retained in care-oriented career fields. There is also great pressure from family as the women were considered "surplus" if they do not get married by their late twenties.
