Video: Panel Discussion on Reconsidering "Masculinity" in Japan and East Asia - Men’s Share! Care! Fair!
The Sasakawa Peace Foundation conducted a survey on men in Japan, Seoul, Taipei, Shanghai, and Hong Kong that discovered an unconscious adaptation strategy wherein men are adopting their authority and masculine identity at a time of changing expectations. This result brings up key questions such as how do men approach domestic affairs and child rearing, and what is the potential impact on a gender equal society?
