Why do women in japan represent 50 percent of the workforce but make up only 10 percent of the managerial positions?

This situation only shows that in Japan, they thought of a woman as inferior over man. They still believe that a woman must not be in a managerial position because they are in a lower value compare to the man. That’s why women in Japan who works only have the opportunity to work under a man supervision. Because if it happens that a woman is working in a higher position compare to a man, it’s a shame on their part.

The reason for this is that Japan is (still) a strongly patriarchal society, they view the man as the dominant figure, while the female is considered to be the subject who has to obey the man; husband, father, brother, etc.

All of this is reflected in the division in the workforce. While females can represent 50 percent of all the workforce population, they will rarely climb to the top in terms of managerial positions. 

This situation has been improving over the last few decades, however, it still has a long way to go.
