Dude works for the Australian National University and the Atlantic Council and can’t scrape up any better dirt than “textbook girl wear pants now 😭”

    It’s my favorite thing when reactionaries post something cool and call it bad.

      I bet Chinese parents are really mad that their daughters aren’t being sexualized like Japanese school girls.

    Interesting that the reactionary is recuperating “gender self-expression” to describe girls wearing feminized clothes but not the normalized (in the 20th-21st century) crossdressing. Instead that’s described as communistic and sexless. Which is also interesting. What depths the Sinophobic reactionary brainpan has!

      communistic and sexless.

      Sinophobes malding about the Vocel police.

      It’s interesting to compare with Westoid lib blob’s reaction to Japanese schools allowing girls to choose to wear pants, which is generally heralded as a progressive measure.

        I think the reactionary is using sex in the other sense. Because they want to sex children. And since boys and girls are basically indistinguishable, this is done through hair and clothing. Call this socially-coerced sexing “gender expression” in order to court cultural feminists.

    maybe its cold out, the boy is wearing pants and as science tells us girls get cold faster than boys. They’re also wearing long sleeves and their complexions have lightened. This is clearly the winter 1997 edition of this textbook.

      I wonder if Mr China Watcher would be just as mad if they gave the boys shorts and short sleeves in the new version? Xi is feminizing the men? Chinese children so hungry they lack body fat to stay warm even during exercise?

      idk, if you’re going for a run, doing it in pants seems easier and more comfortable than a skirt. never worn a skirt in public yet though so i guess i got to get back to you on that. maybe some other hexbear user can chime in with personal experience on running in both

        If skirts are good enough for caber tossing and killing englishmen they’re good enough for running.

        Skorts (skirts with shorts underneath) are just as easy to run in as shorts or pants, in my experience, because they’ll usually have pockets or stitching to keep the skirt part in place. Skirts suck for active wear imo, cuz they usually flap up against your torso when you run if they’re short, or tangle around your legs when longer. Can’t speak for old timey kilts and whatnot. Pants with pockets will always be my go to. I fully support skirts as fashion wear for everyone though.

        Generally less fabric covering your body makes running easier, skirts are fine to run in as long as they’re not tight & restrict your thighs

      His family had a monopoly on all the sexy 8th graders in Southern China before the Communists took that away from them.

      Unironically, trade in children was very common in pre-communist China.

      I think it’s either a result of the printing or the photography. All the colors look washed out on the new version. Compare the blue around the title and the new one is lighter. Same with the track and the boy’s clothes.

        That’s true. You still definitely look more credible saying that it shows China’s Han supremacist attitude or whatever instead of complaining about the sexless depiction of middle schoolers.

      i wore boy shorts (i am a boy just fyi or rather a man thing) and they were called basketball shorts and went past the knees. both boys and girl’s wore the same shorts because they were unisex so we never had that issue…

      were there different kinds of clothing for each gendee in your school? we sorta had to buy ours from the school.

      I ran cross country and personally I preferred the freedom of split shorts, but I can definitely see the other perspective. I also get hot really easily, so I was happy to shed any bit of fabric I could get away with.
