For some women in China, “Barbie” is more than just a movie — it’s also a litmus test for their partner’s views on feminism and patriarchy.
The movie has prompted intense social media discussion online, media outlets Sixth Tone and the China Project reported this week, prompting women to discuss their own dating experiences.
One user on the Chinese social media platform Xiaohongshu — a photo-sharing site similar to Instagram that’s mostly used by Gen Z women — even shared a guide on Monday for how women can test their boyfriends based on their reaction to the film.
According to the guide, if a man shows hatred for “Barbie” and slams female directors after they leave the theatre, then this man is “stingy” and a “toxic chauvinist,” according to Insider’s translation of the post. Conversely, if a man understands even half of the movie’s themes, “then he is likely a normal guy with normal values and stable emotions,” the user wrote.
Ah, no true communism. Communism certainly can’t end up authoritarian if there is no true communism. ;p
The world really is easier to deal with if you don’t bother trying to understand any of it, right?
what is communism to you then?
just calling a country follows communism doesn’t actually make it, you have to implement it on the ground level
I don’t see any communist policies working in China
seriously, why do you think China is communist?
