Dear Sho, thank you for bringing attention to the issue of women at the workplace.

I've been looking forward to this, because I think Sho empathizes with this issue a lot, given that he's grown up in a family with a working mother.

I love it when any of the boys touches on a subject that I feel, is quite - as you say is pertinent - to our lives and times

Singaporeans have it relatively easier because the glass ceiling here is generally higher, with women in leadership positions.

I've had friends who grew up with barely cordial relationships with their mothers, so I never understood why these women sought to establish families. But hey, we need youngsters who can pay the taxes when single people grow old and retire.

Speaking of the other boys, it greatly annoyed me when Aiba mentioned on a talk show that he expects his wife to be literally one step behind. Dude! Learn from your buddy Sakurai please.

oh yes, as much as I love Aiba... THIS pisses me of as well~ guess his mom was too strong -.-

... and on an unrelated note ... Sho is in Singapore and I didn't know ....

Then again if I did there isn't a lot I could do about it I think I'm past the idol stalking age. ^__^ although my girl is totally up for it. Hehehe!

I hope he gets some down time from work as well as crazy fangirls.

I know this is 3 years late but I was just browsing through communities when I saw your journal and decided to read through. Thanks for making a summary of this report, I wish it was still available somewhere. It's so relevant because I know friends who don't want to get married in JP because they can't pursue careers. Glad to see Sakurai is quite critical.

Have a great week!
