In your opinion, how should a man dress, behave and talk? There is no single answer. Many girls today lovexiaoxianrou, or "little fresh meat", which refers to young male(男性) stars who are delicate(精致的) and cute. Of course, there are also people who still like the traditional male image of being muscular and strong.
This topic caused some discussion across China in September. It started when CCTV invited four young actors to perform onFirst Class for the New Term, an educational TV show for primary and middle school students. The four actors all looked feminine(女性化的)and wearing makeup.
Later on, criticism(批评) of their looks was everywhere on the Internet. Some called the actors "niangpao". Many parents believe that this kind of soft male image is in poor taste and could have a bad influence on their child development.
"As male stars, they pay too much attention on their looks and fail to set good examples for teenagers,"Xinhuasaid, "If men all look or do like this, China will never become the strong and great country as it hopes to be",Xinhuaadded. However, others have some different opinions, they can accept the soft looks of males, they even would like to be like them.
"No matter what kind of personal style or quality he or she chooses to show, whether it is strong-willed or soft, that doesn't stop them from being an excellent person,"China Women's Dailysaid in a report.People's Daily agreed and said,"Whether the man is strong or not depends on their inner qualities, not their outer looks."
