Make Inu()Cargos, oficios y profesionesWhen women take up occupations and positions that have been traditionally held by men, various terms to denote females are customarily added as modifiers to these occupations and positions. The same practice used to be found in English, in which neutral occupational terms took on female modifiers as in woman writer and woman doctor (Minh-ha, 1989).Fujin keikanJosei kishaJoryuu sakkaOnna shachooJoi
