昨日記事にした「怒って興奮している奥さんそのものが放射性物質」ですが、オーストラリアのメディアでも報道される事態となりました。

 ご丁寧にも例のイラスト(日本語)入りですむかっ


 記事によると、このイラストは福島事故前にかいたもの(これを利用したワークショップは平成23年3月6日開催)と言い訳をしているようです。
 

 なぜ事故後1年以上たった今でも公開を続けていたのか、デリカシーのかけらもありません。

 「繊細な日本人」のイメージはどこかへ吹き飛んでしまいましたね爆弾

The Japanese Atomic Energy Agency has dropped a page from its website which compared radioactive material to an angry wife.

The agency says it was merely trying to explain nuclear power to women.

According to Japan's Kyodo news, the Atomic Energy Agency site used an illustration of a woman raising her fist and screaming at her husband to try to explain nuclear power.

The caption next to the image compared the wife's scream to radiation, her anger to radioactivity, and the woman herself to radioactive material.

After complaints the webpage was demeaning to women, the agency took it down, adding that the page was created before the Fukushima nuclear meltdowns.
