Men eat women? cannibalism

(There is no logical inference here, just personal opinion. I don’t think words should be used to persuade people, but should be used to touch people. It’s good to have one or two sentences that resonate.)

Very interesting, I just came across this text when I wanted to talk about it. An interesting point of this passage is that, after dividing the standard into two categories, it concludes that this standard treats women as inferior. I don’t know if I’m correct in this inference: that is to say, the author of this passage believes that traits such as weakness, richness of emotion, etc., are degrading compared to traits such as bravery and strength.

In fact, this passage makes it very clear by itself. The "misogyny" that the author accuses has a set of standards for both men and women. It does not just say that women have to do what they have to do. This set of standards also binds men. Stay, so what's the difference? Aren't those who talk about feminism actually tacitly see "traditional femininity" as inferior? Its internal motivation is the same as we always want to prove that we are unique, just like the older generation.

Many people will definitely say that this is not the case, but that this kind of hard-to-divide group view is a form of discrimination. Then, parents, as a group, have the responsibility to take care of their children. Is this assertion a logical deduction of "scientific, rigorous, and pioneering"? No, because we are human beings, we will be influenced by tradition, we will be influenced by culture, and then we will form our own world view. Everyone has their own concept. What kind of characteristics the situation will have, such a concept. Is this discrimination? The so-called discrimination, that fuzzy boundary is only defined by the background of the times.

Indeed, these notions create bondage. However, who is not bound and who is not materialized in this world. The reason why I wrote this in the film review of "Raise the Red Lantern" is because it depicts the entire society for us with the shell of women being persecuted, and it's not just cannibalism. Even the old man who never showed his face was being eaten by his ancestors and society. How do you know if he is someone who wanted to travel to famous mountains and rivers and spend flowers all over the world when he was young, but in the end he could only inherit the ancestral system. Puyi, how do you know if he wants to make a revolution, but he really can't bear the crime of "losing our ancestors for hundreds of years"? Could it be that Zhu Youxiao, who wants to be a carpenter but can only be an emperor, doesn't suffer from a woman who wants to do a career but can only be a housewife? It is the whole world that people have to bear inexplicably.

But I don't think this kind of eating, or this kind of restraint, is pejorative. Aren't the so-called people distinguished by what binds them and how much they are.

At least around me, I have seen countless people who are bound by the word "excellent", enter famous schools, study abroad, enter famous enterprises, and in recent years, there have been more "entrepreneurship".... Those who are bound by "play", those who are bound by "power"...

No one in the world is truly free, unfettered, and indescribable with labels. I think only those who are cultivating the Dao may touch that a little bit, but on the other hand, isn't the desire for freedom also a kind of bondage? In fact, according to this logic, the conclusion of freedom can never be drawn, which is also the proof that I am only a mortal. The so-called "enlightenment" may refer to that state.

Finally, write something directly related to the film:

1. The composition and colors are awesome. In the end, he was born in a professional class.

2. A story about a freshman girl who went straight into society and then went crazy.

3. It is recommended that the person who thinks that the Dafa protector has a good innuendo should watch this.

4. Although I wrote the third article, I still feel that the symbolic meaning of the image is too obvious and a bit deliberate, so I have read it after reading it, and don't take it too seriously. That is, the words of a family have a high degree of drama.

5. Not cannibalism, but cannibalism.
