Lin Yutang's view of women in his works
Today, I read several articles by Lin Yutang about women and gender relations, that is, women, about sexual attraction and ideal women, and I was deeply touched.

I think Lin Yutang is telling his understanding of women in a rational and objective style. He always respects women. On the contrary, he emphasized the important role of women in life. He believes that women can grasp the reality better than men and are closer to life. He said, "Life events, birth and death, depend on women to deal with arrangements everywhere", "Women's intuition is far better than men's". If women rule the world, the world will be peaceful. He also sincerely reminded women to "beware of the use of women's bodies by business" through the comparison between eastern and western women. He doesn't understand why "American women are so obedient to the use of their bodies." He believes that "this concept of paying too much attention to sexual attraction has also become a fallacy." In order to maintain sexual attraction, it is wrong to put the view of women as spouses above that of mothers. Lin Yutang believes that "only when a woman is a mother can she reach the highest position". In this case, women should not care too much about the modification of external image, let alone foolishly resist the natural law of aging! In his works, he also introduced the different definitions of "ideal woman" between China and westerners at that time, analyzed the characteristics of the two different concepts, and pointed out that "the greatest right of a woman is to be a mother". Here, Lin Yutang does not deny the outstanding contribution of women in the social field, but thinks that those excellent women will have greater personality charm if they become mothers!

In fact, we can see that Lin Yutang's view of women should be like this: women are great, women are beautiful, and we should guard against women's over-modification and fall into the strange circle of pleasing men without being used by business. While women are fighting for freedom, don't forget the most glorious thing for women, that is to be a mother!

Lin Yutang put forward the above viewpoint at that time, which can be said to be ahead of consciousness! His reminder seems to be a prediction of some phenomena in China today, which is very emotional! Now the status of women has improved, but if women do not pay attention to the improvement of their own cultivation and blindly fall into the pursuit of foreign beauty, then the situation of being used by business can only get worse! As a woman's own value can not be truly realized, which is a tragedy and a woman's misfortune!
