Bodyguards are not a new profession, but "post-00 female college students doing bodyguards" is a new thing.
After 00, today's society is authentic young blood. When they go to emerging industries, they are good wood and burn good stoves; they go to start their own businesses to create a new wind direction; they go to traditional industries, and they are taking over the stick of inheritance.
However, after the post-00s became bodyguards, everyone began to wonder: Can this also be regarded as high-quality employment?
How good can a little girl in her 20s be?
Xiao Zhang, a 21-year-old Zigong girl, came up with the idea of practicing martial arts at the age of 12, and since then she has been practicing diligently and was admitted to the Chengdu Institute of Physical Education to study Sanda. Life goes on, and "fighting" doesn't stop.
Thanks to her efforts, she has now become an excellent female bodyguard.
In this regard, everyone has been shocked twice.
The first time was a skeptical shock —
"Girls can also be bodyguards, who can they protect?"
"That is to say, the degree to which you can shout that everyone should get out of the way, and don't expect a female bodyguard if something really happens."
"A 21-year-old girl, no matter how she practices martial arts, can she beat a man who weighs twice as much as her?"
After reacting to the inability to blatantly sexism, everyone had a second dismissive shock -
"Determined to be a bodyguard at the age of 12? That's it! ”
"Funny, can bodyguards also be considered high-quality employment?" It was also specially reported that now I can't understand the career planning of college students more and more. ”
"16 years of hard study, 9 years of hard work, just to be a bodyguard for people?"
If the words have expressions, then their words must contain three points of ridicule, three points of arrogance and four points of scorn.
All along, no matter how to correct the idea, the profession also has a chain of contempt, which is manifested in: relying on the brain to eat the superior, relying on the face to eat the middle class, relying on physical strength to eat the inferior person.
Of course, this is not absolute, you become an honorable athlete by physical strength, that is, a superior person; by relying on your brain, you are still destitute, and you are reduced to an inferior person.
Therefore, as a college graduate, Xiao Zhang could have relied on his brain to eat to become a superior person, or engaged in sports to make tricks to become a superior person, but he wanted to apply for a bodyguard to become an inferior person, which was willing to degenerate.
These words are nonsense, but many people inadvertently take them as a guideline. As Emerson said, "There is nothing in the universe that is as stubborn as thought." ”
It should be noted that from ancient times to the present, bodyguards are not a profession that should be disliked. In the past, the guards guarded the cargo from interception, and now the bodyguards protected the employer from harm. No matter how you look at it, it is an iron-blooded existence.
Many people, including Xiao Zhang's family, feel that this is not a serious job, just a professional thug, neither worthless nor unstable, and should not be the first choice of people.
The misunderstood profession, the bodyguard is not the first; the person who is not understood, Xiao Zhang is not the first.

Salary, dreams and social status, which do you want?
Of course, you want it all, but in reality, it's hard to have it both ways.
If you can only choose one, I believe most people will choose to "make money". From this point of view, many things can actually be understood.
Peking University high-quality raw pork, very faceless! But he is now worth $4 billion and has donated up to $900 million to his alma mater.
Qingbei graduates went to Ordos to be primary and secondary school teachers, and the materials were too big to use! But their annual salary is 600,000, which is like three times faster than their peers.
Xiao Zhang, who is a bodyguard, has an annual salary of 500,000 yuan; a graduate of a famous school who does housekeeping earns 600,000 yuan a year; a person who works as a dog food trialist can earn more than 400,000 yuan a year...
Ten thousand steps back, even if the income is average, where are these professions not glorious?
The world is colorful, and everything you see and hear with your naked eye can only come about when someone is involved in the work. The people who use these are not necessarily superior, and the people who make them are not inferior.
Not long ago, Yan Mei brushed a post, the landlord asked the girls whether they would accept that their boyfriends are repairing electrical appliances.
She shared the daily life of a maintenance blogger, thinking that he is very powerful, but the social status of maintenance workers in life is very low, and they will be excluded from the mate selection standards of most girls.
Of course, it is not shameful to rely on their own craftsmanship to eat, but many times, they who earn more than 10,000 yuan a month are far less popular in the blind date market than office white-collar workers with a monthly salary of 5,000.
Someone put it this way: "Why should someone in the house repair the appliances?" Only someone in the family will pay for repairs to the appliances. ”
This is true of mate selection, and even more so at other levels of society.
All walks of life are treated the same way, and there is still a long way to go.
