Teacher-Student Love - Subversion of the Sexual Rights of Men and Women

In the "little boy and big girl" model in youth movies, the growth of the male protagonist is usually achieved through "can't get it", such as "Sunny Days" and "True Love Walks With Me", the difference is only that the former is unique because of China. The questioning of life (and also the questioning of sex) caused by the social and cultural background of the latter leads to disillusionment; the latter is led to sublimation by its tenacity of life and affirmation of sexual pleasure.
"Farewell to the Classroom" goes a step further, and introduces a youth story from gain to pain, from giving up to growth through the "siege"-like antinomy. This film also reminds us of a similar pattern in "The Graduate": the male protagonist finally abandons the "big girl" and chooses a girl of his own age, abandoning the seduction of pure sex and the Oedipus complex (if I must say so) ,look for true love.
And the rival scene of teacher-student love in the film "Teach" more clearly allows us to see the roles of both "little boys and big girls" in this erotic enlightenment. In this affair, Stie transitioned from an active hunter to a passive (and even toyed) prey.
As a result, another layer of ambiguous figures of "little men and big women" has emerged: the dislocation of the initiative in sexual affairs in a male-centered society. Small men VS. big women, the power of women gains an absolute advantage and a perspective of overlooking and teaching men. The breaking of the gender balance and the reversal of sexual rights have resulted in a cultural tension - in the usual cultural state, men are of course the attackers and initiators of sexual affairs, but in the difficult process of Boy to man Women have always played the dual roles of mentors and motivations. To a certain extent, sexual rights originally belonged to women.
On the other hand, "getting" itself also means "disillusionment of realization." As in the film, when Sidi heard his classmates "sex" discussing eight times a day of sexual intercourse, he was very tired and sophisticated and sarcastically said: "People are not rabbits, you can't do it so many times a day." It is clear. With a contemptuous attitude, Mu Ran deconstructs the mythical state of sexual behavior hidden among boys. For most boys, sex will always have its religious, mystical attraction, and once its everyday trivial, biological state is restored, the myth disintegrates, and the man's growth is complete.
