In Japan, sexual minorities are discriminated against both socially and legally. In order to confront this situation, this study will explore the possibility of the use of anti-discrimination laws from the viewpoint of sexual minorities. For this purpose, I will deal with the present situation of sexual minorities in Japan, the Japanese Constitution, and anti-discrimination laws in England and Wales. Finally, this study will discuss how anti-discrimination laws should be designed giving consideration to sexual minorities. In this part(2), I will continue the interpretation of the Japanese Constitution. In addition, the anti-discrimination laws in England and Wales will be introduced.

This study examined the effects of computer games on school performance of high school students in Los Baños, Laguna, Philippines. Allowance, gender, peer group and year level positively affect student's decision to play while time spent on studying, year level, previous grade, number of books and time spent playing computer games are found to be significant in affecting student's performance. Results showed that the probability of a computer gamer to fail is 39%, given the student has more than four siblings, a previous grade of at most 84, lesser teachers, lesser hours on studying, living near a computer shop, and spends more hours playing computer games. Moreover, 60% of the students' daily allowance is spent on playing computer games.

In Japan, one of the parents exercises parental authority after divorce (§818III, §819 Civil Code). But many Western countries practice joint custody after divorce. Influenced by these countries, some groups in Japan are initiating actions to achieve joint custody. Recently, discussions on reforming legislation have increased. I have selected Germany as a main object of comparison and analyzed precedents after reform in 1997. The purpose of this study is to observe, by analyzing the case law of Germany, the criteria for exercising joint custody. I have dealt with the following points in this part : 3) tolerance of the relationship between the child and the other parent, 4) support towards the development of the child, 5) continuity of the living environment (status quo) of the child, and 6) the child's will. I have also examined "the change model", in which the child changes his/her abode between parents periodically. Finally, taking into account the results of the study, this paper goes on to consider what types of joint parenting are desirable and possible in Japan.
