男女平等（フランスより）

Gender Equality　男女平等

　Although I am still in the process of finishing my studies in the field of architecture, I have had the opportunity to work for an Anglo-French architecture office in the south of France during my Bachelors and Masters Degree. The office I worked for had two people in charge, a married couple. The French husband was the head architect of the practice while his British wife was in charge of all administrative and marketing issues. Out of the seven employees, two were men.
　During my time there I definitely did not feel like there was a substantial disjunction between the men and women. No role was attributed according to gender; on the contrary, the role of project manager was conceded to employees in regards to their time constraints, their specialization in the field in addition to their past experiences on similar built projects.
　In my case, I wasn't working as a fully-qualified architect as I had not yet graduated, but instead as a RIBA Part 1 architectural assistant. This did not mean that my days were spent standing idly by the photocopy machine or bringing the occasional cup of coffee for other architects. I was quickly given a handful of responsibilities which included drawing up details and plans for building planning applications and tender documentations. I worked on a number of important projects such as a five-star hotel in the ski resort of Courchevel, as well as numerous private villas and restaurants along the French Riviera.
　Although my experience limits itself to this office - which is far from being a disastrous experience in matters of gender equality - it is still an ongoing and startling issue that today main head positions in this field are still in general occupied by men.

　私はまだ建築分野の研究を修了するところなのですが、学部から修士課程在学中にフランス南部の英仏系建築事務所で働く機会を得ました。私の働いていた事務所は夫婦が責任者でした。フランス人の夫が代表建築士で英国人の妻が管理と営業の全てを担当していました。七名の従業員のうち二名が男性でした。
　そこでは、本質的な男女差があるとは全く感じませんでした。仕事の割り当てに性別は関係なく、反対に、プロジェクトマネージャー役は、時間的制約と専門性を勘案し、過去に類似のプロジェクト経験がある従業員に割り与えていました。
　私の場合は在学中であったため、有資格の建築士としてではなく、王立英国建築家協会Part 1資格の建築補助員として働いていました。だからといって、私がコピーで無駄な時間を過ごしていたとか、時々他の建築士のためにコーヒーを出していたということではありませんでした。すぐに、建築計画書申請のための企画から書類作成そして申請書の提出などの責任ある仕事をいくつか任されました。私は、クルシュベルのスキーリゾートの5つ星ホテルやコート・ダジュールの沢山の別荘やレストランなど、数多くのプロジェクトに関わりました。
　私の経験はこの事務所だけですので、男女平等問題の悲惨な体験をしたわけでは全くありませんが、驚くべきことに、未だにこの分野では男性が上位職につくのが当たり前なのです。
