Ever notice that the most outspoken feminists are ones who most likely were never asked out on a date?It is probably relevant to remember that the countries that had the highest gender "equality" in the early 20th centuries were all countries that no one really wanted to live in because they were communist "workers paradises" like Russia where women did all the same jobs as men, except jobs with political power.
My personal feeling is that gender equality is a crock because it ignores the fact that some unknown percentage of women (and men) do not want to work for a living but would rather stay home and manage the household. Instead they are forced by peer pressure to get a job that they probably hate.
That, to me, is not equality but just a different form of enslavement.
Build it and charge admission!"Town to block Mount Fuji view from troublesome tourists.
A huge black barrier to block Mount Fuji from view will be installed in a popular photo spot by Japanese authorities exasperated by crowds of badly behaved foreign tourists.
Construction of the mesh net -- 2.5 meters high and the length of a cricket pitch at 20 meters -- will begin as early as this week, an official from Fujikawaguchiko town in Yamanashi Prefecture said.
"It's regrettable we have to do this, because of some tourists who can't respect rules," leaving litter behind and ignoring traffic regulations, he told AFP.
It is the latest direct action in Japan against overtourism after residents of Kyoto's geisha district banned visitors from small private alleys this year......"
If this was Osaka or Tokyo, exclusive space for such tourists would be provided soon as the overtourism is a rare good business chance. I have suggested the town to have a large camera stage donated by LAWSON - one of the largest convenience store chains in Japan.
