It’s funny to say that in the past, film and television dramas were all about actresses, all of them heroic. Even now, it seems that Brigitte Lin, Zhang Min, Ye Tong and others have made many women want to get married. But as time goes by, it has become the norm for male actors to play the role. It’s not just in movies and TV shows, male stars in reality are also dressing up to look like women, and are even more refined than women.

Amidst such an abnormal phenomenon, many people have prejudiced against those male stars who are exquisitely dressed and members of boy bands who dress up in a more "girly" way, which has also brought "masculinity" back to the audience's attention. But what kind of man can be considered masculine? Femininity is not necessarily a bad thing

On January 30, CCTV redefined "masculinity" when masculinity and men's femininity were equated.

What he probably means is that masculinity should not be limited to appearance, but should focus more on inner cultivation. As netizens said, the real sunshine is not men who are rough-looking, unshaven, spitting, and smoke regardless of the occasion, but those who look good no matter what they look like, male or female. A man who can restrain his behavior and abide by moral and legal boundaries.

In fact, the definition of "masculinity" has gone astray since a long time ago. Cai Guoqing was troubled by the label of "little boy", Lu Han was also eager to get rid of the definition of "pretty boy", and even Xiao Zhan, who became popular through "Chen Qing Ling", was furious because he was feminized among CP fans.

Let’s not talk about what other people think of such good-looking boys. The current situation is that they themselves do not want others to praise their good looks, and are very resistant to this appearance that attracts countless fans. Therefore, Lu Han, the "Little Master of Beijing", always behaves sloppily and unrestrained, trying to break the impression of a delicate boy.

But whether before or after CCTV redefined "masculinity", the audience was inherently hostile to such feminine looks. Lu Han was shackled as a "mother", Cai Guoqing's "face-rubbing" hand exercises are still annoying to the eyes, and even Xiao Zhan is still described as "feminine".

Whether they look feminine or not, let’s talk about the word feminine first. It has actually been officially recognized for a long time. The People's Daily specifically responded to the phenomenon of "effeminization" and "femininity" among men in August 2018, and officially advocated people to accept femininity and treat it with an open and inclusive attitude. So, feminine is not necessarily a bad word.

If male celebrities really want to take the "feminine" route, at least the government supports them in doing so and also approves of such dressing up. But it is a bit superficial to define "yin and yang" based on appearance. A subtle knowledge has a big meaning behind it

Since ancient times, it has been emphasized that people should not be judged by appearance, let alone randomly define a person based on appearance. But after being taught mistakes again and again, there are still people who make the same mistakes again and again.

Once upon a time, after watching "Chen Qing Ling", I thought like many viewers, Xiao Zhan was a bit too "feminine". Until I accidentally saw one of his airport pictures, everyone was shocked.

Who can imagine that under such a clean face, the leg hair is so thick. And judging from the belly exposed during dancing, her body hair must be too developed. If someone still says that such a male star is feminine, I will be the first to say no. Apparently, body hair already provides the best definition of a person’s character.

And the most rare thing is that it is rare to see Xiao Zhan wearing heavy makeup. During interviews on the show, it felt like he was often without makeup. He doesn't even have his ears pierced, and he doesn't put on makeup or dye his hair. Why do you think he is feminine? How does that put the dignity of us girls?

This is because even the details of his appearance are not up to the feminine standard. Furthermore, Lu Han, whose personality is not up to the feminine standard, also deceived the audience.

In fact, when Lu Han officially announced that Guan Xiaotong was his girlfriend, I completely changed my view of him. Under the premise that he is so popular and has a lot of fans of his girlfriend, he still dares to admit his relationship so openly. I can only say one thing: young man, you are very brave.

Especially in those boy bands who secretly fall in love and fall in love with several girlfriends alone, Lu Han is particularly masculine. I don’t know why fans of my ex-girlfriend liked Lu Han. In short, the moment I turned from a fan to a passerby was because of the hot search announcement that day.

I watched "Ace vs. Ace", so I really like the carefree Guan Xiaotong. I think that the man Guan Xiaotong likes cannot be the kind of girly kind. I'm afraid she herself can't stand it. Through love, after I got to know Lu Han in depth, the word "mother" gradually became distant from him.

Male stars who have returned from abroad are always used to wearing heavy makeup on stage, but makeup for male stars is definitely not the same as for girls. In the past, wearing heavy makeup was the exclusive domain of "society girls". Nowadays, every woman doesn't wear heavy makeup whenever she goes out. Are we all "too girls"?

No matter how society changes, makeup is no longer just for women. Besides, Lu Han only dresses like this on stage. In real life, he is just a rough guy, okay? Look at "Longing for Life", maybe this is Lu Han's nature.

The exclusive right to cross-dress

Of course, I alone cannot define whether male celebrities are really masculine, but if everyone is emphasizing masculinity and starting from the surface, then it is a bit " Too much is not enough."

On the evening of January 29, "The Variety Show" returned again after 7 years, which made many people lament that "Ye Qing is back". But at the same time, after watching one episode, the biggest feeling is that my soul has changed.

In fact, before it was broadcast, there was news on the Internet that male celebrities were not allowed to cross-dress, which made many people doubt whether the news was true or false. But when the show actually aired, people were really dumbfounded. Under the guise of imitation, apart from dressing up, what else does it look like?

After these four different looks, even the treasures originally packed at the bottom of the box disappeared. Shen Ling, who is good at cross-dressing, once reached the pinnacle of imitating Faye Wong and Lu Yu. In addition, Da Zhangwei, Sun Jian and others are also leaders in cross-dressing. But with this regulation, there is no way it still has the flavor of "Variety Show".

Since CCTV has redefined masculinity, why does it still restrict male celebrities from cheating? What is the rationale for this? These people, who have obviously never been involved in the masculinity controversy, are really suffering from it. However, it is precisely because of these silent restrictions that many people ask the fact, why are female stars not prohibited from masculinizing?

Oddly enough, passers-by always think that male celebrities are so exquisitely dressed that they are “too girly”. However, if a female celebrity dresses up cool, passers-by will double-check and say, "If your sister is handsome, marry me!" The completely different views lead to an intensification of the problem of gender opposition.

Boy groups have been ridiculed for their femininity, while Liu Yuxi, sunnee Yang Yunqing and others who are more androgynous than women are highly sought after. We insist on not engaging in sex discrimination, but everyone knows that it is not a good thing for men to become effeminate, but women have androgynous personalities, which is really incredible.

In addition, while others are talking about not focusing on appearance and dressing up, and only emphasizing character cultivation and masculinity, local satellite TV is still making a special effort to pay attention to appearance. Although this time there is only "The Variety Show", through this program, we can also see a deeper truth.

After all, people can’t escape superficial impressions. In the fast food era, who is willing to take the time to understand what kind of person the other person is? However, personality is judged by appearance, and first impression determines everything. Men and women are the same

We cannot choose what kind of person we are born with, but I believe that we can choose what kind of person we want to be in the future.

Masculinity contains a series of beautiful qualities such as courage, vitality, and sunshine, while femininity also has desirable qualities such as gentleness, kindness, and passion. But it doesn’t necessarily have to be “masculine” for boys and “feminine” for girls.

Just as the People’s Daily mentioned in an article published on January 30 that “there is no distinction between male and female when it comes to masculinity”, similarly “there is no distinction between male and female when it comes to femininity.” Everyone of us should be a courageous and energetic person, or we can be a gentle and kind person, or even have both. It doesn't hurt.

People who truly see far will never be limited to the stereotype of gender opposition. Just like hundreds of thousands of years ago, was it still important that men should farm and women should weave? There is no distinction between men and women in profession, let alone personality.

Both men and women have their own advantages and disadvantages. In the show, male celebrities can make fun of women who like to wear makeup, buy bags, and get useless manicures. Similarly, female celebrities represented by Yang Li can also make fun of male celebrities who are obviously ordinary but very confident. There is no such thing as women's rights and men's rights. Everyone is equal and born equal.

Some people think that the heavy makeup of male celebrities has ruined the social atmosphere, but in my opinion, it is just a change brought about by social progress. Even if there is no precedent for a male star, there will always be someone who is the first to try it. Just like the non-mainstream people back then, we came from liking it, so everyone does it.

Regardless of appearance or personality, whether the male star is feminine or the female star is masculine, in short, as long as their moral character is high enough and does not harm nature or law, then they have the freedom to dress up. What the stars did wrong was that they were just imitators who did not distinguish between right and wrong. But it's really funny to put all the blame on the celebrities and let them act as targets. Conclusion

It is undeniable that public figures have the obligation to set a correct example, and the Radio, Film and Television Administration is also strictly restraining bad artists. But as the audience, we also need to know right from wrong and have an overall view, instead of blindly following them. As long as you are a good person, you will have "sunshine".
