“The reason children have half their DNA from men is because women need men to provide half the DNA in order to have children. It’s not that women are having children for men. Women can’t give birth on their own. They need the help of men in order to have their own children.”
Now that people born after ’00 are getting to the age that they can give out red pockets, there is controversy over whether they should. Many say that they’re still children, and so long as you’re not married, you can keep taking red pockets. Some say that now that they are working, they have a responsibility to give out red pockets to the next generation.
“Women get no credit for doing good, men get no blame for doing bad.” Blogger posts long essay about post made by traffic police yesterday titled, “624 cases of drunk driving this year, of which 25 were women. Do you recognise any of them? Can you guess what the highest BAC among them was?” Below which was the full details of every woman arrested. They deleted it soon after, but it continues the trend that so long as it’s negative news, women’s presence in it is extra-emphasised.
This is even true in movies and literary works. The latest movie to come out — Deep Sea—was based on a story of a mother and child who were lost at sea, where the daughter survived by floating on top of her mother. In the movie, the mother figure was changed to a young man.
The movie about a priest who saved tens of thousands of Chinese women and children during the Nanking Massacre? That was actually based on Miss Minnie Vautrin.
Or the movie about a father helping his son struggle with his autism? Yeah, it was actually his mom in real life.
Even in a documentary about the first responders to Wuhan, they talk about how all the volunteers to the front lines had been men. Can’t one woman step forward? But in reality, 2/3rd of the volunteers were women.
The 2019 Track and Field World Championships, the Chinese team won 3 gold, 3 silver, 3 bronze, setting a 26 year record. Official media celebrated with 9 photos of the male athletes celebrating. But actually, all 9 medals were won by women.
For women with impressive achievements, the greatest order granted to her is being able to be called a Mister. Like Mister Tu Youyou who won a Nobel prize, or Mister Zhang Chunru, who studied the history of the Nanking Massacre, are both women.
Female historical figures, such as Lin Weiyin who was the first female architect in China and did great work preserving ancient Chinese structures through the wars, is mostly only known for their beauty and their relationships with men. Lin Weiyin is only ever talked about for the three famous male pursuers she had.
Though, of course, just about the fall of every Dynasty has been blamed on women. And this is still true today headlines like “Woman threatened by man with knife to throat”, “Woman molested by man”, “Woman beaten”, “Woman felt up by boy”, “Woman’s door kicked by and sweared at by neighbour”. These headlines direct discussion to focus about the victim and make people pay less attention to the perpetrator.
Blogger picked up a frozen kitty cat and is nursing it back to health. Despite trying everything, the vet cannot get the kitty’s sinuses cleared—right now, it can only breathe through its mouth and can’t smell anything.
Blogger complains about a news story titled “211-Graduate quits work to sell pancakes to earn bride price” by pointing out that in the pictures and videos, his fiance is right there with him, also selling pancakes. That is not him earning a bride price—that is joint income.
A post educating that young men are easily conned sometimes. They get told that all women who want a coffee from you are gold diggers, and they believe it. But the people saying that are buying 2000RMB watches for their girlfriends—do you know why? Because men know that they need to spend money in order to pursue girls. They know they have to take their dates out on Valentine’s day, they have to prepare gifts. They just don’t tell their friends, because they think they’ll lose face.
Meanwhile, they encourage their friends to not date women, so they have less competition. And thus, men can end up screwed, because you need a wife in order to get a promotion at work, or else your boss will think, “He can’t even get a woman, what can he do?” Even better if you can get a wife who can actually be helpful to your career—and such a high-quality woman, you need to spend quite a bit of money on before you can get her.
A celebrity is getting internet bullied for sending her child to daycare at 15 months old. She says that if she doesn’t do so, then either her or her husband will have to sacrifice their career to take care of the kid, or else have to make grandparents babysit for free. Rather than relying on amateur help like that, she’d rather trust her kid to a professional business.
Chengdu is encouraging flexible hours for teachers, yearly health checkups, and reducing their duties to do off-hours tutoring. Internet commentors say that they’ll only get flexible hours for leaving work, not for going to work.
Lady met a fellow parent at the school bus stop who made fun of his son for having a bald head, saying he looked like a prisoner. She has a conversation with her son then about what prisoners are and why prison exists, and then writes a post about how it’s important to forgive people for being mean because it might just be because they’re ignorant.
A novel recommendation where the main character wakes up inside an otome game she started, but after she completed the game, she could not return to real life. So she ends up playing on a loop, unlocking all the endings. Finally, on the last cycle, she can finally decide her fate, but she had gotten sick and tired of the game, of the characters in it, of being protected, of pleasing others. So she broke the choice screen. God asked her, “I gave you the opportunity for love and riches—you can obtain the best ending in this world, and yet, why are you so angry?” Because this world is a swamp. You can close your eyes and happily sink to the bottom, or you can open your eyes and struggle in pain. Lilith chose the later. If there is no reality and no suffering, then choice is meaningless. And so she begins a cycle where she becomes a gladiator, wanting to fight for a destiny for herself.
Blogger says that so far, every man who’s ever tried to disparage her has used the exact same line—as though they were trained, it’s exceptionally consistent. You’re a whore. Honestly, men need to have a lot less confidence in their spending power. You make more money as a waitress than as a whore. It’s not as though guys have any money—they regularly try to cheat whores by claiming the charge as fraud.
A show about old people dating—there is a clip of an older lady showing off her closet full of 8000RMB dresses. The guy she is trying to date is terrified of how much she spends, though her retirement money is only 2800 a month. Typical Dongbei behaviour—unlike in Guangdong, where even billionaires wear 20 dollar shirts.
A mother is worried because her child is 5 years old and is demanding to go to kindergarten every day, but it costs 4500RMB per semester and she doesn’t even have a job yet. She wants to wait until the kid is 6 and just go right to primary school. The blogger documenting this is confused, because she thinks it’s ridiculous to have 5 year olds who’ve never gone to school. Writes post about how kindergarten is vitally important, not for what it teaches the child, but to familiarise them with a school environment. To go into primary school and then have to get used to the idea of a teacher, a classroom, and trying to absorb knowledge would be too much.
A call that if the government really wants to increase the birth and marriage rates, they shouldn’t be trying to make women have lower standard, but be encouraging men to raise their quality—from looks to physique to career. Rather than blaming romance shows and books for having unrealistic male leads, why not question whether we’re too forgiving towards men in real life? Men out number women, but high-quality women out number high-quality men. And this solves young people not wanting to date out of financial concerns too. There’s literally no downside.
Very interesting! Thanks for posting these.
Do you have any sense of how serious these are? I'm wondering if these are really serious complaints, or just joking/blowing off steam/general shitposting.
