Sorry I haven't written for a while. I really enjoy to talk with everyone here and read your comments, so I promise to write more often. ^_^ Also, when everyone becomes a perfect english speaker someday, if I can be a small part of the reason why you could do it, I would be super happy. ヘヘ
I read an article today about how most study abroad students from Japan, are female. The difference is something like 65% female and 35% male. After age 25, the percentage is even much higher for women studying abroad.
For me, this is a big difference and an interesting topic, so I wondered why more women want to study abroad than men? I thought maybe sometimes to avoid marriage, or just escape some of the pressures of being female in Japanese society? It's just my guess. Since many of the members of this community are women, I am interested in your feelings about it. Of course, I would like to hear guys opinion too. ^^
Hi!
I think that is a really interesting topic,too.
I do feel that the reason why more female study abroad than male is that female is more keen to study foreign languages.
And it is often said that femail is better to learn foreign languages although i dont know the truth...
I also think that male has more difficulty to leave company and return to work after studying abroad.
I feel that female is more flexible than male?!
This could be one of the reasons for that??
Thank you James for helping my english!
Im sure you will be super happy very soon.
I think you are right. Men worry more about money things also. I think for guys, our job is kind of our status. So we care about having a good job and money.
For me though, I don't care about such status. I just want to enjoy my life, and most importantly, have time.
At the end of our life, memories are our most precious thing, not money.
So I want to make a lot of them. ^_^
