Does The Stereotype of The Taiwanese Male Has Changed in That Past 50 Years?

Does The Stereotype of The Taiwanese Male Has Changed in That Past 50 Years?
In Taiwan over the years, there are existence old concept of sexist, older generation tending son preference. Many men because of the impact of traditional, and they are chauvinism.


In 50 years ago Taiwan is still in the undeveloped countries, men must contribution to the labor in the rural society, and women stay at home to take care of their families. Until Taiwan into the developing countries, the commercial and industrial prosperity, the employment is still a male predominance, and women still stay at home, the family's source of income mostly comes from the male. For a long time women must be attached under to the male. Sexist situation is still not a lot of changes.


In modern times of social change in Taiwan, a lot of women into society, Their capacity as much as men, and they must play multiple roles. In the world promote equality between men and woman , the men gradually lose the thinking of the Salmon.For example, on the family affairs, in past years, must let men and children dining first, in order to turn the female dining , men are not into the kitchen and does not cook, Absolutely can not help do the laundry and take care of children.
But now, the“New Mr. Nice Guy” is more and more, they learn to sympathize with the wife's hard work, and also will share the family affairs.


In the other changes, over the years, the men compared with a sense of responsibility, and more focus on family, Instead, modern men less and less resistance to stress, and the ability to make a living, there are endless examples. In any case, the concept of family and community, are the largest impact, so the status and role of the male, also change with the times.

The Electronic Dictionary Versus the Printed Dictionary

The Electronic Dictionary Versus the Printed Dictionary
The tools to learn English, you must used a paper dictionary, however, if you have used electronic dictionary?
In modern times the electronic technology is very developed , the electronic dictionary in all aspects of the development has already more than a printed dictionary. People have different opinions, some people believe the printed dictionary are useful, but some people believe tha electronic dictionary is more convenient. In fact, there are own advantages, also have their own shortcomings.

Electronic dictionary, built-in phonetic sentences, phrases, idioms…and so on.

Electronic dictionary , can come into contact with other words, just like a printed dictionary. Printed dictionaries often after several years, will be revised to update. So many new words on the printed dictionaries may not get this.


You can insert the different expansion card into electronic dictionary, and the most important electronic dictionary is easy to carry.
Paper dictionary is more abundant, also at a glance, and there are a number of example sentences, but just more inconvenient to carry. In fact, the reference book is never too much, in different situations to use the different reference book, there is no restriction.

I want to emphasize in this, a lot of people hold a negative view of the electronic dictionary, in fact, the "learning attitude" and "learning tool" is not related.

If there is a good learning attitude, combined with good learning tool, if this can make learning more effective, this is what a great thing.
