Today's Rapid Development of the Internet, under the development of information diversification, a variety of aesthetic cultures have been derived. "Niang Cannon" is a network term, but how to define "Niang Cannon"? One of the more agreeable statements is that niang cannon is a new term transformed from girly. It mainly refers to a man's behavior, voice and tone of voice that are too feminine.
But allowing the "mother-in-law" culture to continue to develop could cause a huge crisis to our entire society. Some people may find this alarmist. But there is a historical basis for this. In China's history, some dynasties have had a "niang cannon" culture, the result of which is to lead to the demise of the country, and almost to the demise of the nation. This dynasty is the Wei and Jin Dynasties.
During the Wei and Jin dynasties in China, the world style at that time was extremely eroded. Feminine beauty is popular in society. The children of officials and eunuchs liked to smoke clothes and trim their eyebrows, and wipe their lips and apply rouge. Beautiful young men like Pan Yue and Wei Jie have become national idols, and most of the four beautiful men in Chinese history are also from the Wei and Jin dynasties.
The femininity of men is by no means the norm, it is a pathological aesthetic. Under the influence of this value, the Southern Dynasty scholar class was "brittle and soft-skinned, unable to walk, weak in body, and not resistant to cold and heat." So that whenever there is a strong enemy, it will fall apart, and the six dynasties will be the same.
In the "Yan Family Training", the feminine beauty of men in this period is described: "The skin is brittle and soft, it is impossible to walk, the body is weak, it is not resistant to cold and heat, and it is often the case that people sit in a dead position." "Men in this period are completely devoid of the spirit and masculinity that a man should have. They are all weak and can't help the wind.
This kind of pathological aesthetic actually began as early as the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and many scholars and doctors liked to apply heavy makeup. Some celebrities "whitewashed their appearance and scratched their heads to make gestures", and became famous for a while, and even appeared "Fu Fan He Lang" and "stealing incense Han Shou".
So, what is the root cause of the emergence of male female cannonization in the Wei and Jin dynasties?
First, from the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty to the Three Kingdoms period, and then to the Wei and Jin dynasties. This period of chaos was a long period in Chinese history, and the long-term war and turmoil made the scholars see no hope, and over time they became world-weary and pessimistic, and eventually the scholar class deviated from behavior. Ji Kang's indulgence and Ruan's alcoholism can be seen as a reflection of this social background.
Second, due to the weakening of class mobility, the privileged classes that were born as officials ate all day, drank and enjoyed themselves, and their lives were rotten. And they don't have to worry about anything. Because they were a privileged class of scholars, they belonged to the nobles who were high above. They have nothing to do all day, and some of them can still refine their skills, such as Wang Xizhi, Wang Xianzhi and others. It's more of doing nothing, muddled. Under the conditions of great satisfaction of material life, it is natural to seek new vents in order to seek self-promotion. Therefore, there is a "whitewash appearance" and "lips smearing" to get their own spiritual pleasure.
Under such a pathological aesthetic, serious consequences will naturally occur. After the Wei and Jin Dynasties, there was the darkest period in Chinese history, the "Wuhu Chaohua". The image of the men of the Central Plains Dynasty was like a lamb to be slaughtered in the eyes of those barbaric minorities, so they rebelled for decades, and in these decades, the Han people in the Central Plains were almost on the verge of extinction. Before the Wuhu Chaohua, in 282 AD, there were 22.62 million Han chinese in the Central Plains, and by 318 AD, there were about 12.4 million Hu people and about 9 million Han people in the country, and in just 37 years, the population of Han people had dropped sharply by 13.62 million. This is also the data obtained by the integration of various minorities and Han Chinese.
Therefore, we must be wary of the "Niang cannon" culture, because the lessons of history tell us that the "Niang Gun" culture is a very deformed culture, a culture that is not worth advocating and must be resolutely resisted. Nowadays, society has become an era of looking at faces, and the men of "mother cannon" have begun to look up to become idols of young people. Is it time to reincarnate history again? In fact, we in the Chinese nation are good at drawing lessons from history. China is a big cultural country, Chinese culture is the faith of the Chinese nation, and a country without faith is vulnerable, so we must resist the "Niang cannon" culture, especially young people must stay away from those who are niang cannons.
