It is certainly a very positive demonstration that public figures reject the aesthetic view of "being white and thin" and let everyone get rid of their anxiety about body shape and appearance. There are many kinds of beauty in men's eyes, not only rude "skinny people", but everyone is pursuing "thinness" and "smallness", which is completely a manifestation of inferiority. I think Yang Mi's deconstruction and publicity are very valuable. Just a few days ago, Yang Mi rejected the challenge of being white and thin, and launched the challenge of "comic strip waist":
Whether it's comic strip waist or A4 waist, collarbone coin challenge, backhand touching navel ... This evaluation and generalization of human body is obviously materialized and aggressive. People can't simply define that people are not commodities. At the same time, Yang Mi also launched this activity to let more women participate in this self-evaluation activity. The front foot advocates rejecting "white thinness" and the back foot advocates "comic strip waist". The attitude of netizens is obvious:
And most interestingly, the original author of the cartoon imitated by Yang Mi made trouble. The screenwriter directly invited Yang Mi to come out and unlock the "new posture".
These works are pointed out by netizens to have strong sexual hints. It is full of a kind of "sex symbol" meaning from the perspective of men-women are materialized to satisfy men's irresistible fantasy of sex. In this context, women in the original work are regarded as objects, and Yang Mi not only imitates but also launches imitation activities. The anger and rejection of netizens are certainly understandable. Although Yang Mi may not have noticed the original author's creative starting point at all, the aesthetic orientation of "comic waist" is still worth our reflection. The attitude of netizens is also very clear:
We should know that "comic strip waist" and "white thin" are essentially the dregs of an aesthetic prejudice. The beauty of women is varied, and there is not only one standard.
So many times, we say don't be "white and thin" and don't let a standard dominate the beauty of women. Why is the comic book waist still popular? Moreover, most importantly, this aesthetic prejudice often means "unhealthy".
After the comic strip waist challenge, there was an injured female star to imitate it. This waistline looks amazing: various types of online celebrity blogs are also competing to imitate it:
What is even more unexpected is that pregnant women who are pregnant for 6 months imitate such dangerous actions: I want to ask, who is responsible for the behavior of pregnant women? Dr Laila, a popular science blogger, consulted plastic surgeons and thought that imitating such movements would increase the risk of lumbar degeneration:
Don't follow the wind, it's too dangerous. The official blog of the People's Daily also pointed out that such a move is very dangerous and must not be done:
Later, Yang Mi apologized and told everyone not to imitate: whether it is the waistline in the cartoon or any other waistline, we have to admit that these outrageous aesthetics are really morbid. Every woman is emphasizing that she has a girlish feeling. Everyone wants to be white and slim, and her waist must be slim and plump. Liu Yifei's waist is slightly fleshy, and she was immediately called "Fat Fairy" by the media, asking her to "lose weight": Where is she fat? In order to keep fit, stars are also very strict with themselves.
