In recent years, many people believe that the "feminine wind" prevails in the society, and that the phenomenon of "feminization" is becoming more and more serious, and it spreads very fast among teenagers, causing many people's concerns. So what is the phenomenon of feminization?

The phenomenon of "feminization" generally refers to the appearance of feminization of men after wearing women's clothes or dressing up. Most of them are young men with beautiful facial features. They often have strong cute attributes after wearing women's clothes.

This phenomenon of "feminization" does not come into being in recent years, nor does it come into being in modern times. By definition, ancient men's and women's clothing should belong to this category. There are also celebrities in Chinese history who are sought after for dressing up as women. In the Tang Dynasty, there was a opera singer, Li Ling, who was over fifty, but once dressed as a girl, she was so coquettish and charming on the stage that she was known as the "masked lady".

But many people think that the prevalence of "Yin and softness" makes people lack of "masculinity", and there is also a saying of "saving boys" on the Internet, hoping to cultivate the masculinity of boys. Many training institutions even launched courses for this purpose.

"Nianhua" is actually a way of life, not because a man dressed like a woman, so that he can not stand in society. This is true both in ancient times and today. And in a pluralistic society, we should be more tolerant of these not necessarily mainstream phenomena.

Ancient Chinese society pays attention to ethics, and men have a higher position in society. Many women often need to dress up as men to make contributions. The famous story is Hua Mulan's joining the army for her father. In the military camp, she can only appear as a male character. But even in the male dominated ancient society, men who were beautiful and loved women's clothes were very tolerant. Especially in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the custom of dressing up as a man and a woman spread from top to bottom, which also showed the openness and tolerance of the social atmosphere at that time.

Modern society is a pluralistic society, and the phenomenon of "feminization" should be treated with an open and inclusive attitude. Pluralism means that there is not only a kind of values, but also a way of life. It can be imagined that if a society has only one way of life and everyone lives in the same way every day, then the society will be lifeless and dull. Sometimes, it's because of different lifestyles that the society becomes more colorful and provides a variety of choices for individuals.

In the past, the recognition of male role mainly focused on Kong Wuli and masculinity. But as many people say, dressing up is not a privilege for women, and men can, of course. Since women can dress up as men, why can't they dress up as women and learn from some women's lifestyles?

However, there should be a degree in everything. Some people worry about the spread of "Niang" phenomenon. Nowadays, the phenomenon of "Motherhood" has a great influence on teenagers. If teenagers are too addicted to the beauty of yin and softness, the trend of "one-sided" aesthetic will have a great negative impact.

If anything is excessive, it needs to be corrected. Therefore, we should increase the gender education for teenagers, educate them to understand the phenomenon of "feminization" and help them to set up correct and reasonable values and correct attitude to the trend culture through reasonable guidance, so as to help them develop in a long-term and all-round way.
