Traditional education creates, in time, an incomplete image on family’s gender roles. From generation to generation

children interiorize theirs parent’s model known as separated world’s myth – a wife and a mother only cooking ,doing laundry and taking care of the child “contrasting” with a husband and a father working or fixing different things.

According to this mentality each partner has established responsibilities in private and public life that other one couldn’t take over.

Changing traditional gender roles seems to be difficult not because woman or man don’t have the necessary skills

for other one’s tasks but because everyone carries on a symbol of his “world”. Society’s evolution especially on woman valorization redefines gender roles promoting a woman more active, ambitious and independent and a man more emotional and involved in household tasks.

Women of our days have more liberty to choose between the “family model” – these ones are being more obedient

and anchored in tradition (the feminine type) and the “feminist model” – who’s priority is the career (the anti-feminine type) or the middle model adopted by the “double career” type of woman – profession and family. On the base of any of these choices are variables like social-status, race, education level, culture’s values etc.

We are assisting to a reprioritization of woman needs and so professional success became more interesting and even attractive than family one probably because it brings something new. Women are motivated to choose the career by elements as the wish for financial independency, the need to prove her capacities, to open and better integrate in modern society and the possibility to control and not being only controlled. All this reasons offer her a psychological equilibrium.

Most of the men consider women’s career as a conflict source having arguments like: women will neglect theirs family attributions, the imminent change of man’s authority, his incertitude concerning the professional competition and the risk to deteriorate the marital relation. Even at first side man and children are felling the stress generated by the new status of woman, she’s living an interior conflict as well. Woman

need to understand her need for self-accomplishment but the remains of traditional mentality still affect her modern vision.

So our children should make a difference on gender roles perspective but we are in a vicious circle because every family is raising their kids for a passed time, influenced by their own mentality and resistance to change. The main idea is that both women and men should consider this role’s exchange like a challenge and also accept that a man as well as a woman can do anything with willing.

Read the following passage extracted from www.asiatravel.com and select the best answer to each question below. Then mark the letter (A), (B), (C) or (D) on your answer sheet.

Culture Shock is not something that people generally get on a holiday but as soon as your boss calls you into the office and says "Hi John, we value you so much we want you to head our Hong Kong operations!"

you really need

to start thinking about the implications and how you are going to avoid this condition. It is not so much as a life threatening disease, but it can lead to some very serious problems if you do not take a few precautions.

Culture shock is definitely a serious condition that needs to be watched, and checked upon. I personally have suffered from it on numerous occasions and sleep deprivation, mood swings, and depression are all in there.

Travelling to a new destination with unusual habits and traditions can be a very traumatic experience. A little research before you leave will help tremendously but the most important thing is to actually leave with an open mind. A lot of people fly off without any research and expect things to be done in exactly the same way and at the same speed as they were at home. Well this just isn't going to happen. And it is very important to try to understand the culture religion and people of the country that you are travelling to.

The culture shock selection of books are a very good starting place, but one that you will not really understand fully until you are actually in the country mingling with the locals. One interesting point of this can be found in the book Culture Shock Thailand. Thai people are among the nicest people in the world but it is a very different world from, let's say, the UK. The book explains a good deal about Thai culture and traditions and it explains how Thais smile their way out of an embarrassing situation and look down on those that don't. The book then puts this into a couple of different examples to try to ensure that the reader understands. One such example is that if you are walking down the street and someone throws dirty water over you from a doorway, you should smile at the person that did this, showing your forgiveness. This should help clear the air and the person will most likely go out of their way to help you clean up. Imagine this happening in London! Thais shy away from confrontation, and this is one of the many aspects that make them such a happy and kind nation.

If as an expatriate you are moving to a country with severe Culture Shock such as perhaps Cambodia, or Vietnam,

then even more research would be needed. Nowadays you can possibly do a lot more research than ever with the growth of the internet. You can see pictures of pretty much every destination in the world and even read restaurant, hotel and bar reviews without having even left your office. It is also advisable to stay away from a lot of the other expats especially before you leave and while after you arrive in the destination. A lot of expats can be very negative about a country, even though they continue to stay there and this is not something that you need when you have just travelled half way around the world. Instead, leave with an open mind and make your own judgments about the place after you have started to understand it a little.

One of the biggest causes, though, of Culture Shock is language. It will make an enormous amount of difference to you if you learn a little or as much as possible of the local language before you leave. Take up classes and practice it as much as you can; if you are studying Thai, eat out at Thai restaurants and try to practice your Thai. This small step will make your life a lot simpler and will also give you immediate respect when you arrive in the foreign country, not to mention open many new doors. If you show an interest in the other person’s language and culture they will show an interest in you.

If you are being relocated by your company, try to find out a little about the living conditions in that country and the package that the company offers you. Will they supply you with hotel accommodation or will you be straight into an apartment or house? Are you given a housing allowance and allowed to choose the accommodation yourself? Will the company pay the deposits that the landlord requires? Will you have maids? What about a car? How many return trips will you have a year to your home country? Will they be in economy or business class? What about your family rights - the wife - the husband - the children? How long
