On 19 Dec. I went to Fukuoka city by car.
I had an appointment at 6 o’clock, and I intended to drop in my son’s place before it.
I left Hita at 2:30. As the street was crowded I arrived at my son’s place at 5:20. I gave him some oranges and went ahead to Maizuru.
As I was unfamiliar with Fukuoka, I got lost. I thought I was near the parking place I had chosen before I left but I couldn’t find the way. I parked my car at the edge of the road and asked a taxi driver, thanks to him I got to there.
I visited CC Cafe. https://www.facebook.com/55english/?fref=ts
I had heard there was an event having fun with English conversation.
There were roughly forty people. Most of them seemed young. Some seemed to be business person and the other seemed to be university students.
I chatted with several people. I met some women and a man I had been met at EF Fukuoka.
I talked to a young man, I found him the Cafe’s owner. He explained that at day time there was an English class and at evening there was an English cafe. People who intend to talk someone in English came. He worked out this good idea. There was no other place like this in Fukuoka.
I talked to a young man, he was an exchange student from Minnesota studying at Seinan Gakuin Univ. He wanted to be a teacher of English.
And I talked with other students, one of them was practicing English at the ESS club. I thought he was an earnest student. I wish I would go back to my young days and tell me to be earnest.
We enjoyed games suggesting what was the movie by gesture, moving a cookie from on the forehead to the mouth.
It ended at 8 o’clock. I considered to go to KBC Fukuoka to see a late show. I knew “the FAREWELL PARTY” was on screen.
But I was not sure if I could back home safely after it was over. I was exhausted by then. Thus I went back home.
The Tenzin area was still hustle and bustle. Usually I drive with taking care not hit a wild boar through the road of no signals. It was completely different.
12月19日クルマで福岡に行った。
６時の用事があったのでその前に倅のうちに寄ろうと思った。
日田を2時半に出た。道が混んでいたので倅のところに着いたのは5時20分だった。みかんをあげて、舞鶴へ向かった。
福岡はよく知らないので道に迷った。来る前に決めておいた💉💉駐車場のそばまで来ているとは思ったのだけど、行き方がわからなかった。道の端にクルマを止めてタクシーの運転手さんに聞いて、行き着いた。
CCCafe に行った。英語で楽しむイベントがあると聞いたので。
ざっと40人くらい来ていた。ほとんど若い人だった。社会人みたいな人もいたし大学生みたいな人もいた。
何人かとしゃべった。以前EF福岡で会った人たちと会えた。
若い男の人に話しかけたら、その人はオーナーだった。昼間は英会話の学校で夜はイングリッシュカフェなんだと教えてくれた。英語でしゃべりたい人が来る。彼がこのアイデアを思いついた。福岡には他にこんな場所はないそうだ。
若い人に話しかけた。彼はミネソタからの交換留学生で西南学院大学で勉強しているとか。英語を教える先生になりたいと言っていた。
それから別の大学生たちと話した。そのうちの一人はESSのクラブで英語を練習しているらしい。熱心な学生だ。自分の若いころにもどって、真面目に勉強しろと言えたらなあ。
しぐさで何の映画かあてるゲームとか、額に乗せたクッキーを口まで動かすゲームとかをした。
８時に終わった。KBC福岡にレイトショーを見に行こうかと考えた。「ハッピーエンドの選び方』をやっているはずなので。
でも映画が終わったあと無事に帰れるか心もとなかった。それまでにすっかり疲れていたから。
それで家に帰った。
天神はまだ人混みでにぎやかだった。 ふだん、信号のない道でイノシシをひかないよう気をつけて運転しているのに。まったく違う。

discrimination against women
On 16 Dec,the supreme court declare if the civil law against the Constitution. I’ve been interested in it. People have paid attention the regulation which makes six month time-limit of remarriage after divorce only for women. And wondering the choice of family name, at present, few men choose their wife’s name. It forces women to change their family name.
In 1988 the Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women commented about the Japanese women’s situation.
The Committee felt that the de facto situation of Japanese women legged far behind the legal situation.
Whether under the Constitution all people are equal, there are discrimination in the political, economic, or social fields.
I think all adults should make efforts to exclude them. But law itself should have equality. The Civil Code used to be unfair.
I’ve read the news to see the supreme court declare the time limit should be 100 day, and the civil code forcing the same family name is constitutional.
I’m disappointed so much. There is inequality between men and women in choosing their family names. Women have difficulty to conserve their identity, which is personal rights. The Constitution article 14 says all the people are equal under the law, but the Civil Code make women suffer. I think it is irrational.

日本と原発 ４年後
On 12 Dec. I went to Cinema5 in Oita city to see a movie., “Japan and the nuclear power plants : after four years”. The director is a lawyer, Kawai Hiroyuki and the co-director is also a lawyer, Kaito Yuichi.
This movie explained how the damage of Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant had made and why the policy has not been changed.
How the TEPCO and the government exchanged the information about the status of the four plants. And the worst scnario estimated by specialists.
the two lawyers go to Iidate village to see the residents living surrounded the tons of Flexible container bags, which contain the soill lipped from earth’s surface. An elder lady says that she has been vexed, because her family cultivated and fertilized the soil generation after generation. Now the elementary schools and junior high school are empty. It’s so sad.the children have loved their home town but they have had to go off in all directions.
In the movie, there’s a bright side. Takahama nuclear power plant was banned to work by Fukui district court. The court decided the power plant is too dangerous to run.
The movie is shown from 12-18 Dec. I want everybody see it. It is worth two hours drive and 1800 yen for me. Whereas I can’t recommend my neighbor for it is too far. I hope the movie will be adopted to library version DVD and the local libraries will acquire it.
The song of Iidate villagers was impressively beautiful. It is ironical as they can’t go the beautiful mountain.
After seeing the movie, I went to Prefectural Office, where Prof. Saitoh Tamaki gave a lecture about “The truancy and social withdrawal”.
He said the fifty percentage of depression are healed spontaneously, but the social withdrawal aren’t.
To talk about truancy, it is important to seek the cause, but about social withdrawal it is no need to find the cause.
The conversation between the person and other family members or between the person and the supporters should be kept on.
If the person doesn’t come out from his/her room, you should talk in front of the door.
To talk about the school caste, it arose from the tendency to measuring people by the communicative ability.
The definition of the social withdrawal is having no social relationship over six months, not caused mental disease primarily.
It often become long term, some years to some decades. Their average age is 32.6 years old. It is difficult to resolve the situation by themselves.
It is need to the family members to build the relationship which they feel safe. Better being Sun than being north wind. It is nicer being kind rather than loving them.
Refuse violence, if the person do violence, say “I hate it.”, don’t say “violence is wrong”. If it helps, call 110.
Keep on conversation. Listen carefully what the person says. Then reply it.

a lecture about Ueno village
On 28 Nov, there was a meeting of “Modern Agriculture” readers’. The panelist was Takashi Uchiyama.
He has been lived in Tokyo and Ueno village in Gunma prefecture. He says the society won’t sustain without being changed.
Now, 40% people work as temporary employees, and their average annual income is under one million fifty hundred thousand yen. In Tokyo the popuioulation of elderly people has increased so much.
There are many people who live isolated after they have retired. They have few friends or relatives who will come to condole after they die, Now is the time we have lost the confidence in the big system. We have to recreate the world to live.
He talked about Ueno village.
Ueno village has no rice paddies. They have been nothing to do with the government’s agricultural administration.
The village has large mountain and forest area. With the trees they produce woodworks or from mushroom.
Recently they make the thinning lumber into pellets. The pellets are used for pellet stoves at household., also used for heat up the spring water in the village.
And it is used for cooling mushroom at the factory. They have a Germany pellet generator, which do not burn but roast the pellets and produce gas to rotate the turbine to generate electricity.
Now they are planning to make the used mushroom bed into pellet.
In Ueno village there are about one hundred fifty people in forest related industry. 15% of residents are moved in from Tokyo i.e. somewhere else.
They are making efforts to create local energy, with conserving traditional religion or culture. They are practicing to make sustainable local society.
I’m so impressed. How wise the people of Ueno village are. They are using resources effectively, that let them independent economy.
They should think of their future society by themselves. I have learned the autonomy.
I deeply appreciate Takashi Uchiyama and Nobunkyo the publisher of “Modern Agriculture” .
11月28日 「現代農業』読者会があった。内山節さんが講演した。
内山さんは東京と群馬県上野村で暮らしている。彼はこれまでのやり方では社会はもたないと言う。
いま、労働者の40%が非正規雇用で、年収の平均が150万円以下だという。東京では高齢者が激増している。退職後孤独に暮らす人が多い。亡くなったとき葬式に来てくれる友達も親戚もいない。今は大きなシステムに乗っていれば安心というわけではない。新しい世界を再創造しないと生きていくことはできない。
内山さんは上野村のことを話した。
上野村は田がない。それで日本の農政とは無関係でやってきた。
山林が大きい範囲を占める。その木で木工品を作りキノコを育てている。
最近、間伐材をペレットにしている。家庭のペレットストーブで使用し、温泉のお湯を沸かすのに使っている。
それから、キノコ工場の冷房に使っている。ドイツ製のペレット発電で、ペレットを燃やすのではなく蒸し焼きにしてガス化して発電機のタービンを回す。
いま、使用した菌床をペレット化する計画がある。
上野村では１５０人くらいが森林関連産業についている。住人の１５％は東京やその他からIターンしてきた。
地域エネルギーを作り、伝統宗教や伝統文化を守ることに取り組んでいる。持続可能なむら作りを実践している。
とても感銘を受けた。上野村の住民はなんて賢い人たちなんだろう。資源を有効に使って、経済を自律させている。自分たちの社会の将来を自分たちで考えているにちがいない。自治というものを教わった。
内山 節さんと、『現代農業』の出版社、農文協さんに深く感謝する。

It getting colder, getting closer to the end of the year.
On 20 Friday, there was an year-end party of my office. A woman had reserved a restaurant which was providing Beaujolais Nouveau fair.
We had very good time, though I didn’t drink alcohol.
On 21st, Saturday, I went to Ichinomiya, in Aso city.
I should prepare fuel for our pellet stove. During last winter I ordered the pellet to Meiken Kogyo in Okayama prefecture.
Their pellet was good, but the transporting cost was high. I searched on internet other shops within the area I can go by myself.
I found out an NPO Kyushu Biomass Forum, it locates in Aso city. I thought I might get there in one and a half hours.
I asked the office in advance if the shop would open from 21 to 23, they replied me 21 would be OK, but from 9 o’clock to 4 o’clock, the man should go delivery. Then I should be before 9 o’clock. I left home at 7 o’clock.
I’m slightly worried if I could get there without getting lost. Thanks to google map, I got there in one and half hours. It located next to Azelea21, a facility which has hot spring and pool. If I kew it, I might bring my swim ware and towel. Next time I won’t forget.
The pellet cost 880 yen per 20 kg. I bought 15 bags. I have 15 bags remained from last season. I suppose it will be enough for two months.
In the evening I’ve heard from one of my acquaintance that there were very beautiful illumination at Fukuoka city. She kindly sent me a photo. I supposed there was the hustle and bustle of a city there. Many children and young people should be looking forward to Christmas.
Also I found some opinion on twitter that the illumination seemed like a trap for the people who was enjoying their real life. There was a mirthful naming “Riajyu hoihoi”! I understand that feeling it was like another world. But even if it were not my business, it is a fact that there are many people enjoying Christmas atmosphere.
だんだん寒くなって、年の瀬が近づいている。
20日 金曜日、職場の忘年会があった。一人の人がボーショレヌーボー祭をやっているレストランを予約してくれた。
私はアルコールは飲めなかったけど、とても楽しかった。
21日 土曜日 阿蘇市の一宮に行った。
ペレットストーブの燃料を用意しておかなくては。 昨シーズンは岡山県の銘建工業にたのんでいた。ペレットはいいのだけど運送費が高くついた。ネットで、自分で買いにいける範囲の店を探してみた。NPO法人九州バイオマスフォーラムが阿蘇市にあるのがわかった。それだったら1時間半で行ける。
事前に２１日から２３日の間で開いている日があるか問い合わせた。２１日は開いているけど、９時から４時までは配達に出ているとのことだった。それで９時までに着かないといけなかった。
迷わず着けるか少し心配だった。グーグルマップのおかげで１時間半で着いた。アゼリア２１という温泉とプールのある施設の隣だった。知っていたら水着とタオルを持ってきたのに。
ペレットは20キロ880円だった。１５袋買った。昨シーズンの残りが15あるからこれで２ヶ月は大丈夫と思う。
夜、知人から福岡市はとてもきれいなイルミネーションがあると聞いた。都会はにぎわっているんだなと思った。たくさんの子供や若者がクリスマスを楽しみにしている。
また、ツイッターでそうしたイルミネーションがリアルに充実している人を惹きつけるという意見を見た。「リア充ホイホイ」というおもしろい名付けもあった。別世界のように思える人の気持ちもわかる。でも、たとえ自分には縁がなくても、クリスマスの雰囲気を楽しんでいる人がたくさんいるのは事実だ。

Inqiry-based learning
On 13 Friday, I went to Beppu shosei high school. It rained heavy. I parked my car in the muddy ground.
I attended a study meeting for the inquiry-based learning held by the department of high school education. The guideline of teaching offers teachers to teach children with the method of active learning.
From 2003 to 2006 Japanese students results of PISA -Programme for International Student Assesment -was dropping. The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology has released new guidelines for teaching. It includes the inquiry model learning.
The new guideline indicates students to increase the skills and strategies to seek and find out problems and solutions by themselves.
Without learning an inquiry process, students often develop a very limited and narrow view of inquiry. That’s why teachers should include their syllabus at least one class ICT class and library class from this year.
Now, in Oita prefecture, there are teacher-librarians and school librarians at each high school. The board of education has held the study meeting twice a year. The Beppushosei meeting was the second,
The participants observed a class of Japanese of first graders. At that time students made presentations of their research for the difference of culture between Occident and Orient.
I’ve heard the students had been researched their own subjects divided into some groups at the school library. The school librarian had supported them with collecting books from other libraries.
After that visitors had a lecture from the teacher of Beppushosei high school about their practice report. Then we had a lecture by an associate professor of Beppu University, Mr.Kudou about Inquiry Model learning.
At elementary schools, junior high schools and senior high schools, there are integrated classes. At the class students seek something interested in and research for individual issue and report it to other students.
On the process they are expected to develop their skills of finding questions, information to solve the question, and develop their knowledge.
It is ideal. But almost all of the people who are over 30s have no experience of such kind of learning. So we should learn the new method.
I am fond of the idea that students should learn at classrooms and libraries and any other places where they will be content in learning.
On 15th Sunday, I went to Oitanishi high school. There was a study meeting held by the labour union of teachers.
I attended the “Information society and education” workshop. I’ve learned an information teacher’s practice. He said the purpose of the subject is let students be a person who can get information they need and can tell truth and falsity. He said most teachers have thought that the information class teach students how to use Word and Excel. The students have learned using application software at junior high school. At senior high school they should learn about programming.
The other presenters were two librarians. They told us that more than half librarians in Oita prefectural high school were full-time temporary employees.
They want to work as a librarian, but some of them have to do administrate work. Perhaps all the librarians share the school work with other teachers.
Recently the high school education department has emphases the importance of learning at library, on the other hand financial department forces librarians to do administrative work. They can economies the personal expenses.
The temporary employees can’t refuse the work because it is written in the contract. The permanent employees can refuse, but is isn’t easy. If she transferred, and the previous librarian had been worked for the administrative work, the co-workers might expect she would take over the work.
I don’t know what to do when I meet the case.
I’m worry about another problem. The librarian who work as temporary employees wish to work as permanent employees. But the exam has age limit, under 29 years old people are permitted to sit for. Most of the temporary librarians can’t take the exam.
And they should work on yearly contract. I wish they will be permitted to take the exam. Not only Oita prefecture, a lot of municipal offices employ people with temporary contract to save the personal expences.
I hope equal pay for equal labor.
11月13日 金曜日 別府翔青高校に行った。大雨だった。泥んこのグラウンドに車をとめた。
高校教育課主催の「探求型学習」の研修会に参加した。新しい学習指導要領は教員にアクティヴラーニングで子ども達に教えるよう求めている。2003年 2006年と、日本はPISAの結果が落ちた。文科省は新学習指導要領を制定した。それは探求型学習を含んでいる。
新学習指導要領は子ども達が自ら課題を発見し解決する能力を伸ばすことを求めている。探求的な学びでなければ、生徒は限られた狭い探求的視点しか伸ばせない。だから、今年から、教員は少なくとも年に１回はICTを活用した学習と図書館を使った学習を年間計画に入れることを求められている。
いま、大分県には各高校に司書教諭と司書がいる。県教委は年に２回研修を行っている。別府翔青高校のは２回目だ。
参加者は１年の国語の授業を見学した。このときは、生徒たちは西洋と東洋の文化の違いを調べて発表した。
生徒たちはこれまでグループに分かれて図書館で調べたそうだ。司書は他の図書館からも図書を集めて協力した。
その後、参加者は別府翔青高校の先生から取り組みを聞いた。その後、別府大学の工藤准教授から探求型学習についての講義をきいた。
小学校、中学校、高校で総合的な学習の時間がある。その授業では生徒は何か興味のあることを調べて他の生徒の前で発表する。
その過程で、生徒は、課題を発見しそれを解決するための情報を集める力を伸ばし知識を身につけることを期待されている。
これは理想的だと思う。しかし、３０代以上のほとんどすべての大人はそうして学んだ経験がない。だから、この方法を学ばなくてはならない。生徒が教室でも図書館でも、その他どこであれ学ぶことを楽しむという案は好きだ。
11月15日 日曜日 大分西高校に行った。
労働組合主催の研修会があった。
情報化社会と教育の分科会に参加した。情報の先生の実践を学んだ。その先生は情報という教科の目的は生徒が必要な情報を探し真偽を見分ける力をつけることだと言う。たいていの先生方は情報という教科はワードやエクセルの使い方を教えるものだと思っている。生徒はアプリの使い方は中学で習ってきている。高校の情報はプログラミングを学ぶ。
それ以外の発表者に二人の司書がいた。大分県の高校の司書の半分以上が常勤の非正規雇用だと言った。
彼らは司書として働きたいが、中には学校事務の仕事をしなくてはいけない人もいる。おそらくすべての司書は校務分掌を他の先生方と一緒にしている。
最近、高校教育課は図書館教育の重要性をいう、いっぽう、理財課は司書に事務の仕事をさせる。そうして人件費を節約する。
臨時の職員は仕事を断れない、契約にそう書いてあるから。正規の職員は断れる。しかし簡単ではない。もし、転勤して、前任者が事務の仕事をしていたら、同僚は彼女がその仕事を引き継ぐものと思っているだろう。
もし自分がそういうことになったら、どうしたらいいかわからない。
他にも心配なことがある。現在臨時で働いている司書は正規司書になりたいと 思っている。しかし、採用試験には年齢制限がある。29歳以下でないと受けられない。臨時司書の多くは受けられない。
彼らは1年契約で働いている。彼らが試験を受けられるようになってほしい。大分県だけじゃなく、多くの自治体が人件費削減のため職員を非正規で雇用している。
同一労働同一賃金を望む。

新学習指導要領は子ども達が自ら課題を発見し解決する能力を伸ばすことを求めている。探求的な学びでなければ、生徒は限られた狭い探求的視点しか伸ばせない。だから、今年から、教員は少なくとも年に１回はICTを活用した学習と図書館を使った学習を年間計画に入れることを求められている。
いま、大分県には各高校に司書教諭と司書がいる。県教委は年に２回研修を行っている。別府翔青高校のは２回目だ。
参加者は１年の国語の授業を見学した。このときは、生徒たちは西洋と東洋の文化の違いを調べて発表した。
生徒たちはこれまでグループに分かれて図書館で調べたそうだ。司書は他の図書館からも図書を集めて協力した。
その後、参加者は別府翔青高校の先生から取り組みを聞いた。その後、別府大学の工藤准教授から探求型学習についての講義をきいた。
小学校、中学校、高校で総合的な学習の時間がある。その授業では生徒は何か興味のあることを調べて他の生徒の前で発表する。
その過程で、生徒は、課題を発見しそれを解決するための情報を集める力を伸ばし知識を身につけることを期待されている。
これは理想的だと思う。しかし、３０代以上のほとんどすべての大人はそうして学んだ経験がない。だから、この方法を学ばなくてはならない。生徒が教室でも図書館でも、その他どこであれ学ぶことを楽しむという案は好きだ。
11月15日 日曜日 大分西高校に行った。
労働組合主催の研修会があった。
情報化社会と教育の分科会に参加した。情報の先生の実践を学んだ。その先生は情報という教科の目的は生徒が必要な情報を探し真偽を見分ける力をつけることだと言う。たいていの先生方は情報という教科はワードやエクセルの使い方を教えるものだと思っている。生徒はアプリの使い方は中学で習ってきている。高校の情報はプログラミングを学ぶ。
それ以外の発表者に二人の司書がいた。大分県の高校の司書の半分以上が常勤の非正規雇用だと言った。
彼らは司書として働きたいが、中には学校事務の仕事をしなくてはいけない人もいる。おそらくすべての司書は校務分掌を他の先生方と一緒にしている。
最近、高校教育課は図書館教育の重要性をいう、いっぽう、理財課は司書に事務の仕事をさせる。そうして人件費を節約する。
臨時の職員は仕事を断れない、契約にそう書いてあるから。正規の職員は断れる。しかし簡単ではない。もし、転勤して、前任者が事務の仕事をしていたら、同僚は彼女がその仕事を引き継ぐものと思っているだろう。
もし自分がそういうことになったら、どうしたらいいかわからない。
他にも心配なことがある。現在臨時で働いている司書は正規司書になりたいと 思っている。しかし、採用試験には年齢制限がある。29歳以下でないと受けられない。臨時司書の多くは受けられない。
彼らは1年契約で働いている。彼らが試験を受けられるようになってほしい。大分県だけじゃなく、多くの自治体が人件費削減のため職員を非正規で雇用している。
同一労働同一賃金を望む。

A lecture about equal marriage
On 8th Nov.I went to Seinangakuin University in Fukuoka city.
The other day I read a book which has the title “Equal marriage :We’re lawyers of same sex couple”. It was so instructive. And I have heard the author Mr. Kazuyuki Minami comes to Fukuoka to give a lecture.
The lecture was held by a NPO Rainbow Soup. They’ve been worked for LGBT.
Mr. Minami has explained the struggle that he felt being odd when he was child. being different from other boys. He had been interested in male. When he told he was gay to his mother when he was senior in university, she lost her self-control.
She said “Were there anything wrong in my bringing you up?” He said gay or lesbian are not being become, they are born naturally. In his life history, he met his partner at university, and both of them have admitted to the bar, they held a wedding ceremony and run a law office together. They employ Mr. Minami’s mother as a clerk.
Mr. minima wrote the book to raise a question why equal marriage isn’t legal.
I think if the equal marriage would be legal. it means a progress of recognizing diversity among families.
After Mr. Minami’s lecture, there was a panel session, Mr, Minami and Prof. Shigeru Minamino from Kyushu Univ.
They talked about whether the constitution forbids the equal marriage or not.
In the article 24:
Marriage shall be based only on the mutual consent of both sexes and it shall be maintained through mutual cooperation with the equal rights of husband and wife as a basis.
With regard to choice of spouse, property rights. inheritance, choice of domicile, divorce and other matters pertaining to marriage and the family, laws shall be enacted from the standpoint of individual dignity and the essential equality of the sexes.
Prof. Minamino said, at that time Beate Shirt Gordon had not known about gay and lesbian, she said late in life.
The right wing researcher of constitution says the equal marriage would not be legal without an amendment of constitution. The other researcher says the constitution doesn’t ban from equal marriage. A Civil Code researcher declares the purpose of the marriage system is to specify one’s father.
Mr. Minami says it is not the only goal that to put equal marriage into practice. There are many issues, which should be shared by society. e.g. HIV or prejudice.
In case of international marriage there is a problem, If the equal marriage couple are Japanese and non-Japanese.
Incase of both foreigners couple, the permission to stay in Japan is given to the spouse as a family. But if one of them is Japanese it is not given. If he/she is young or has any skill, he/she will get a permission to stay for business or student. But if both of them are retired or old, it is difficult to get for business or student. This issue is argent.
After their panel session, some questions are asked by the audience or asked to the audience.
One of those are how do they teach about LGBT at schools.
In the textbook of health and physical education, the article is written, in the adolescence people are interested in the opposite sex. Actually, Mr. Minami was worried to read this. Now the movement to change the article has occur. Also, the study for teachers has started.
In the sub textbook of human rights, there’s an article about sexual diversity.
In the other hand it is concerned about the terms which are well known colloquial expressions, even the first grade elementary students use “Homo”, “Okama” to disgrace the sexual minority.
To talk about some municipal administration, in Osaka pref. citizen can apply for the public residence by couple of man and woman, man and man, woman and woman.
At Fukuoka city, the city employees have started to hear what the citizen being troubled.
At elementary schools, the register of students has changed from boys first order to AIUEO order. Teachers call students both with “-san”. These are small good changes for more diverse.
I was surprised to hear that—-.when Prof. Minamino asked what kind of case he dealt with to Mir. Miami, he told us about a case. It was a blackmail. A client came to his office being blackmailed by another man. He had met that man via an APP, which makes an appointment between gay people. He dated that man, then that man peeped his ID card and blackmailed that he would tell his family or co-worker if he wouldn’t give him an amount of money. He had been scared ‘cause he had not open his sexual orientation to his family or co-worker.
I didn’t know there’s such an APP. You need not to go any sex venue. Talk to this case, the malicious man has gave up to get money to know he must negotiate to a lawyer.
I’m glad to hear that. I think the APP is convenient but there is dangerous to see unspecified people.
11月8日 福岡市の西南学院大学に行った。
先日『同性婚 :私たち弁護士夫夫です』という本を読んでとても教えられた。その著者、南和行さんが福岡に講演に来られると聞いた。
その講演会はNPO Rainbow Soup が主催していた。LGBTの運動をしている。
南さんは子どものころ自分を変なのじゃないか、他の子と違っているんじゃないかと感じて苦しんだと話した。男の人が気になったと。
大学４年のときお母さんに自分はゲイだと話したら、お母さんは取り乱した。そして、自分の育て方が間違っていたのかと言った。でも、同性愛者は、なるものではなく、そう生まれついているのだそうだ。彼は大学でパートナーと出会い、二人とも弁護士になり、結婚式をあげ、一緒に弁護士事務所をやっている。今では、お母さんは事務員として働いている。
南さんは、なぜ同性婚が法的に認められていないのか？という問題提起の本を書いた。私は、同性婚が法的に認められると、家族の多様性がよりよく認められると思う。
南さんの講演のあと、九州大の教授、南野森さんとのトークがあった。
憲法は同性婚を認めているのか、と話した。
憲法24条
婚姻は、両性の合意のみに基いて成立し、夫婦が同等の権利を有することを基本として、相互の協力により、維持されなければならない。
配偶者の選択、財産権、相続、住居の選定、離婚並びに婚姻及び家族に関するその他の事項に関しては、法律は、個人の尊厳と両性の本質的平等に立脚して、制定されなければならない。
南野先生によると、ベアテ・シロタ・ゴードンは、晩年、自分は当時、同性愛について知らなかったと言っていたそうだ。
右寄りの憲法学者は同性婚を認めるなら憲法改正が必要だという。憲法は同性婚を禁じてはいないという学者もいる。ある民法の学者は、結婚というシステムは父親を特定するためのものだ、と言っている。
南さんは、同性婚を実現することだけが目的ではないと言った。社会に知ってもらいたい課題はHIVのことや偏見などたくさんある。
国際結婚の場合、ひとつ問題がある。日本人と日本人じゃないカップルの場合だ。
外国人同士のカップルだと、パートナーに家族としての在留許可が出る。が、日本人と外国人のカップルだと出ない。その人が、若かったり何かスキルがあったりすれば、仕事や学生の資格での許可をとる。しかし、両方とも退職していたり年齢が高いとそれも難しい。これは喫緊の課題だ。
トークのあと、会場から質問を受けたり、会場の人に質問したりした。
そのひとつが、学校ではLGBTをどんな風に教えているのか、ということだ。保健体育の教科書には、思春期に異性に興味をもつと書いてある。それを読んで、南さんは悩んだ。いま、その記述を変えさせようという運動が起きているそうだ。また、教職員の研修も始まっている。人権の副読本には性的多様性について書いてある。
その一方、日常的に使われている言葉について懸念されている。小学1年生ですら、「ホモ」や「オカマ」という言葉を同性愛者を侮辱する言葉として使っている。
行政の話をした。大阪府では公営住宅の申し込みが男女、男男、女女のカップルでもできる。
福岡市では、市民がどんなことで困っているかヒアリングが始まっている。小学校では、男女別の名簿をやめ、混合名簿になった。生徒をどちらも「さん」づけで呼んでいる。ささやかだけど多様性を認める社会へ変わっている。
この話を聞いた時は驚いた、南野先生が南さんに、どんな案件を扱っているのか聞いた時の答え。恐喝だ。ある依頼者が脅迫された事務所に来た。ゲイ同士で知り合うアプリを通してデートした相手が、彼の身分証を盗み見て、お金を出さないと家族や会社の人に言うぞと脅された。彼はゲイであることをオープンにしていなかったので怯えた。そんなアプリがあるとは知らなかった。ハッテン場に行かなくてもよくなる。この件については、その脅迫者は弁護士が出てきたとたん金を取ることをあきらめた。
それをきいてよかったと思った。アプリは便利だけど不特定の人に会うことには危険があるんだな。
