The clear distinction
between accident and Risky Behavior is that Accidents are not much predictable
or at times not at all predictable while risky behaviors are.<span>
For example a person climbing a staircase may slip and fell
on the floor is an example of accident where the person did not predict at all
if that is going to happen. <span>In risky behavior a person may start consuming alcohol which
he/she knows can get him into some specific kind of trouble but still he/she
dos that, or someone skips class to attend to some other need knowing the risk
but still takes it.</span></span>
<h3>Women in Pre-Modern Southeast Asia</h3><h3>Women in Pre-Modern Southeast AsiaThe 11 countries of Southeast Asia include over 550 million people. Despite great linguistic and cultural diversity, the region is characterized by the relatively favorable position of women in comparison with neighboring East or South Asia. This has been explained by several factors: traditionally, kinship was traced though both maternal and paternal lines; a daughter was not a financial burden because of the widespread practice of bride price; a married couple often lived with or near the wife’s parents; women had prominent roles in indigenous ritual; their labor was essential in agricultural, and they dominated local markets. Over time, however, the rise of centralized states and the spread of imported philosophies and religions (Confucianism, Daoism, Buddhism, Islam, and Christianity) increasingly privileged males and stressed female subordination. Although such influences were most noticeable among the elite, the strength of local traditions was always a moderating force.</h3><h3 /><h3>Women in Pre-Modern Southeast AsiaThe 11 countries of Southeast Asia include over 550 million people.

By the 1890s the entire region except for Siam (Thailand) was under European control. In some areas women were recruited as cheap wage labor on plantations (tea, sugar, tobacco, rubber) and in processing factories. At the village level colonial regimes strengthened the male position as head of the household and “reformed” customary laws that had given women considerable autonomy. Similar trends can be found in Siam, the only non-colonized country, where legal codification strengthened patrilineality. These developments encouraged a preference for sons rather than daughters. Nonetheless, women were still influential in community life, at times even leading anti-colonial rebellions. Increasing female literacy (especially in the Philippines) and exposure to Western feminism encouraged elite women to confront issues of gender inequality.</h3>
