“Embracing Defeat”
In my opinion, the most revolutionizing thing under the control of GHQ (General Headquarters) was the foundation of the new constitution and civil code. Japanese legal experts struggled to revise the conventional laws following orders from GHQ. Th elimination of the “feudalistic” family system, in which women had legally been considered inferior, succeeded in offering women freedom and the right to vote. However, nearly 80 years on, Japan has ranked 125th out of 146 countries according to the World Economic Forum’s Global Gender Gap Index 2023. The proportion of female politicians and female CEOs is especially low, and we cannot deny that Japan is still a male-dominated society. It's quite a shame that Japan is still so far behind in terms of promoting gender equality, compared to the US where female leaders like the current Vice President Kamala Harris or former US secretary of state Hillary Clinton have appeared.
GHQ（総司令部）統制下で最も革命的だったのは、新憲法と民法の制定だったと私は思います。日本の法律家たちは、GHQの命令に従って従来の法律を改正するのに苦労しました。女性が法的に劣っているとみなされていた「封建的」家族制度を廃止することで、女性に自由と参政権を与えることに成功しました。しかし、それから80年近く経った今、世界経済フォーラム2023の「世界男女格差指数」によると、日本は146カ国中125位にランクされています。特に女性政治家や女性CEOの割合が低く、日本が依然として男性優位の社会であることは否定できません。現副大統領のカマラ・ハリスや元米国国務長官のヒラリー・クリントンなど女性リーダーが登場している米国と比べて、日本が男女平等の推進においていまだ大きく遅れをとっているのは実に残念です。

This is an interesting issue to be sure. Do you find that opponents of gender equality in Japan push back on it because it's seen as Western influence?

Thank you for your corrections and comment.
＞Do you find that opponents of gender equality in Japan push back on it because it's seen as Western influence?
No, I don't think so. Instead, opponents of gender equality in Japan, mainly men, might want to consider themselves superior to women. That's a kind of instinct, I think. Both men and women in Japan should be aware of this issue, gender inequality , in daily lives and speak out against it.

Ah, I see. I agree that more people should speak out against it for sure.
In my opinion, the most revolutionizing thing under the control of GHQ (General Headquarters)ary events i when the American General Headquarters (GHQ) administered Japan from 1945-1949 was the foundation of thea new constitution and civil code.
