In the past, boys born after the age of 60 and 70 were all families with many children and were not so favored. In addition, the aesthetic atmosphere of society also highly values masculinity, so masculinity is strong on the whole. After 90, boys are all "little suns" and have been spoiled since childhood. They went to school to pick them up. They stay at home every day. Most of them are quiet and weak. They are not as wild as those fearless boys in the past.
Men's desire to conquer and protect is not very strong. Therefore, a gentle and mature sister lover will make them feel safe and relaxed, and they don't have to bite the bullet and play the role of "indomitable spirit" in traditional culture. From the perspective of women, aesthetic psychology is also very different from that of women after 6070. In the 1980s, girls had a famous slogan called "Looking for a man".
At that time, the girl's dream lover was a grim-faced Japanese star Gao Cangjian. In the eyes of many girls, this is the best interpretation of masculinity and real men. But now girls still say they want to find a man. No, they fell in love with the Korean version of fresh meat, pink face and red lips, charming and moving, and the most popular thing is to find a sweet "little suckling dog" lover. This shows that the gender roles in China traditional society have changed, even subverted, and the female roles have been strengthened, while the male roles have been weakened. I'm not a sociologist, so I can't analyze the essence behind this phenomenon. I just think that since this has become a phenomenon, it must exist for a reason.
