Topic: color pink is associated with girls, why

Summary


Pink is a mixture of red and white. It can give a slightly milder and softer atmosphere than red. On the other hand, it is also considered a color that gives off a sensational atmosphere along with red. It was only recently that the stereotype that pink is this woman's color has emerged. Until the 19th century, there was no such prejudice, and in Europe, boys were dressed in pink as a symbol of boys. Just as the effects of color on humans and living things are still being studied today, pink has also been studied, which is generally known to stabilize the mind and body. Experiments in prisons and other places said that pink causes blood pressure to drop and violence to decrease, so many prison cells were painted pink or classrooms were painted, and it was popular in the U.S. as it actually worked. As women are softer than men, pink is perceived as the color of women. 

Interesting


It is surprising that pink has become a symbol of women recently. And it's amazing that it was a color that symbolizes men. It is interpreted that the intensity of pink is similar to that of men. 

Discussion
But using pink as a symbol of women is not bad, but it seems to be controversial recently be controversial. It encourages a kind of sexual stereotype. But does this really encourage gender stereotypes? At least it seems good to do something else when you think so.

How can we reduce the suicide rates in Korea?

How can we reduce the suicide rates in Korea? -       Since Korea is the number one suicide rate among OECD countries, many efforts have been made to lower it. Currently, the government is establishing a public-private cooperation system to prevent suicide based on the community. In addition, emergency medical institutions are working together to prevent suicide attempters from leading to secondary suicide, thereby strengthening the response to suicide attempts and preventing secondary spread. In addition to this, the government has made numerous efforts, including specialized suicide prevention projects for each life cycle and creating a culture of respect for suicide prevention life. But the first thing to change is people's perception of psychiatry. Depression, a major cause of suicide, is a disease, so it is natural to go to the hospital for treatment. However, many people in Korea think that going to a psychiatrist is strange. It is thought that it is difficult to reduce

Week 11-4. Did you find yourself changing your presentation when you met with different people? Male/females? Attractive/ nor attractive? Others?

I personally find myself changing my presentation with different people. I am much comfortable with females because the conversation topic is more in common and girls are often more compassionate than boys. I find myself more comfortable, funny and soft in front of girls. Also, I become very talkative and outgoing when I'm with people that I think are attractive. I feel desire to appeal myself when I see someone that I like, because naturally you can be more awkward and less confident when you're interested in that person but I don't want to hide myself.  I am usually relaxed and calm in person but attractive friends make me active, which can give me inner energy so I try to hang out with favorite people a lot.
