日本女性劳动力中有三分之一是“办公室女士”，她们的培训是在许多女子专科学校进行的。办公室女职员是低薪、低地位的秘书，她们几乎没有工作保障。布莱恩·J·麦克维 (Brian J. McVeigh) 利用他在此类机构担任教师的经验，探索了用于提升日本女性“女性气质”的文化和社会进程。他进行了详细且基于人种学的研究，考虑了这些机构的学生如何社会化以适应他们未来的雇员和母亲的双重角色，并阐明了大学在整个日本社会中发挥的社会政治作用。
One third of the Japanese female workforce are 'office ladies' and their training takes place in the many women's junior colleges. Office ladies are low-wage, low-status secretaries who have little or no job security. Brian J. McVeigh draws on his experience as a teacher at one such institution to explore the cultural and social processes used to promote 'femininity' in Japanese women. His detailed and ethnographically-informed study considers how the students of these institutions are socialized to fit their future dual roles of employees and mothers, and illuminates the sociopolitical role that the colleges play in Japanese society as a whole.
