Can I just say, this channel is one of the most underrated resources on KZbin for learning Chinese, far more useful than simple vocab videos or grammar vids-- access to real, clear native speech with familiar topics are hard to come by in any language, and I am so grateful for your videos to help me improve my vocab and listening comprehension 感谢你们!

Yes, it talks about different topic (I am interested in) and also has pinyin and characters. I learned mandarin as a kid in chinese school but I stopped after 6 years and it’s still needs great vocabulary improvement if I want to live in China. I know English people can lie there too but I really want to speak fluent Chinese if I am going to study there

*TOO FAST?* Control the video's playback speed *by speeding up or slowing down the video 5% at a time* on *desktop computers and laptops* OR *25%* at a time on *smartphone.* Access the playback speed controls as follows: Desktop Computers and Laptops: open the video, then go to the lower right of the video's screen and click on the settings icon (it looks like a GEAR). On the upper right of the options window that comes up, you will see the link "custom". Click on the "custom" link to control the video's playback speed by speeding up or slowing down the video 5% at a time. Smartphones: open the video and go to the upper right of the video's screen. You will see 3 dots. Click on them and you will see the link to open the "playback speed" controls. Click on this link and you will be able to control the video's playback speed by speeding up or slowing down the video 25% at a time. Note that viewing the video on desktop computer/laptops gives you greater control over the playback speed (5% vs 25% on smartphones).

I like the look of those type of feminine men. Everyone can look how they want. Feminine men and Masculine men can both be attractive. Everyone can have their own preference but i dont like if people make fun of the feminine men. Everyone has a different idea of beauty and not everyone has to conform to your personal preference of beauty. Good intersting video.

Actually cross dressing is very old and always part of culture. Specially male performers dressing up as females. Some are just performers others may be bisexual or homosexual. About the second type I believe it's just normal that everyone is getting more pressure to feel prettier and also woman really enjoy seeing beautiful males. This is a whole new "buyer's" to beauty industry so I dont see it stopping.... beauty pattern are always changing together with society, with traditional resistance or not, nowadays males don't work the farm and things like that, and in the other side beauty and appearance are considered a product and when you take care of yourself you have a good and clean image that is more attractive than a "brute" or rude appearance. I also believe there's a resistance with people from different beauty, a man that looks rude and alpha will reject a soft looking man, and business should be business dont act on your personal values but what sells more. People like men with good skin? Using lotions, taking care of appearance?? Then give it to them.

What a coincidence! I was searching for Chinese TV shows to improve my listening skills. But I was not able to find a TV show that reflects a normal life of a Chinese person. China seems to have 2 genres. 1 is about ancient China and its dynasties. And the other one an exaggeration of life. 'Perfect' looking men who are either the best student in the whole school, a doctor or the boss of a billion dollar company. But that is not what I am looking for. I want to know more about modern China. How people behave. Their norms and opinions. The culture. What they are proud of etc. If you have 1 or more suggestions. Please help me out :)

in trying to understand more about Chinese culture and opinions I've found your blogs are really great. I do have a couple of comments about today's show. most western women have the same male beauty standards as Chinese ladies. huge muscles are not considered attractive by most women. in addition, I think (just opinion) that the reason for so many young men becoming more feminine in their dress is that they are trying to attract young women. Young women, especially teenagers, seem to be very nervous or shy when they are around very masculine men. These feminine males make these girls less nervous. When you see the feminine KPOP groups, most of their fans are the teenage types. I'm not disagreeing with what you've said in the video, I just think this is another reason to add to your comments.

Funny to see Luhan used as an example of 小鲜肉 because, in his latest drama "Crossfire", his appearance is completely opposite of that. I think he's probably trying to distance himself from that earlier image now that he's 30 and be taken as a serious actor; He actually did a good job in that drama.

Hahaha sooo interesting topic - even in English! Thank you very much! 🦋💜🦋 Just yesterday I showed my 10 y o niece (we are from Kazakhstan originally but more international living now) a photo of one of my fav actors Luo Yunxi and she didn’t like him at all coz she initially thought it was... a beautiful girl rather a 30+ guy 🤣🤣🤣 Same she thought about some korean pop stars i gave her after - she was mad about their very obvious make up and non-masculine looks 😜 Her parents feel the same... Yes there is some groups among young girls in russian speaking countries who are very big fans of that type of super feminine k-pop or chinese pop stars but then they get married and have kids there is ZERO chance that those yesterday’s fans would want their sons look like this 😁 that appearance and manners would be considered sort of the curse for the boy rather than blessing 😁

Great format - I hope you make more of these. It would also be great if you just made audio podcasts more frequently so you don't have to spend time on subtitles and video editing. I think one of the biggest problems for Chinese learners is to find interesting content to listen to or watch, this podcast format is doing a decent job and filling a market niche.

LOL! It's funny that you mentioned "Bossy CEO" ("... 霸道总裁嘛...") at 00:11:00 because way before there was the 1990 American film, "Pretty Woman" there was 1954 "Sabrina" with Humphrey Bogart and Audry Hepburn which CREATED the 霸道总裁嘛 genre in both of our countries. ("Sabrina" was redone in 1995 with Harrison Ford and Julia Ormond). My girlfriend from mainland China loves all three of these movies. She never heard of bossy CEO or "霸道总裁嘛" but thinks it's fitting.

Being surrounded by women when growing up has nothing to do with how manly you will look when growing up. Apart from that , the factors determining how "manly" you are, lay beyond the appearance. It's more about how you were raised as a kid.

至于这个视频内容,虽我刚听完了你们 的,最喜欢了是当晓峰讲时关于历史和哲学的地方时. 我建议大家集中思想对他说的差距.比如说问题是我们都想要去什么方面?向力量(过去式!) 还是向找道☯️呢? 🧝🏼‍♀️🐺

I really enjoyed this. I was surprised how well I was able to follow, even after the conversation started to move at a faster pace. When I listen to things like this, I realize how far I have come. As for the subject matter, I gotta say, I am so GLAD my husband is not on the feminine looking side. He's from Beijing, he looks like he could be the younger version/ identical twin of 李连杰。I consider myself verrrry lucky. 😊❤ Lol

there's nothing wrong with being feminine tbh. it's just toxic societal standards that made you think there's something wrong with it.
