Today in class (day 11)

Today in class Mr. Schick made us take boring notes. It wasn't that interesting. What was interesting though is that most women live longer than men. This is true because most men do dangerous jobs. Most men are in the army, firefighters, police, etc. Women once they have kids usually stay home and take care of them. They make food for the family and take care of the kids. Sure enough, when the kids get older they won't need their mom around twenty-four/seven. So they mom goes back to work. Since the woman is a little older than she was before, she may take an easier job. Than go into the army and become a firefighter. In China, men are considered more important. They think this way because men take over the business. Where women marry men with a nice business. If they had a daughter, they usually gave them up for adoption. Now, they're more men in china and not enough women to marry. The population has decreased in China (or stayed the same) by only having 1 child. This would keep the population under control and not out of hand. Also, again they're not a lot of women to marry the men. It would be very hard to find a spouse. I thought it was interesting that we only got to 1 billion people in the 1800's. After 10,000+ years that we existed, we didn't have a billion people until 1800! Today we are up to 7 billion people and counting. In the future we might over populate whihc could lead to some issues in the future. Then again, they're a lot of diseases that have not been cured which may never be cured. They also, will never be a cure for death.
