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 π"
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.
The Chinese yearn for the freedom of having grown mail solicit teenagersβ panties and sell them in public shops
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.
a liberated woman is a horny and sexy woman
Commodified sex objects to be sold on the market
truly a society free of repression
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?
The girl is clearly winning the race too. Clearly they have so demasculinized their population that soon there will only be the WNBA in China.
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.
clearly the spiro is working because i did not have enough testosterone in my body to consider such an obvious answer
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
How exactly do they interpret a COVER of a book like that? Pure culture war brainworms all the way down
It's a matter of time before that Grummz idiot outs himself as a pedo by complaining that an underaged girl isn't sexy enough because of the wokes.
Iβm sorry but it seems that no one here is talking about how this guy is upset because childrenβs uniforms are βsexlessβ
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.
Murray Rothbard's paradise.
those sorts of people being sex pests is just like nothing new or interesting i guess
Why woman have pants now????
imagine giving a shit about this lmao what a loser
Death to America
mfw when im a china watcher and i cant china watch 8 year old girls' legs: 
They could just point out they made the kids whiter? Would be a far more normal dunk than whatever the hell this is.
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.
Am I the only runner here who was creeped out by how short the running shorts were in school? Like 13 year old me running track in school felt very violated.
I wouldn't call myself a runner, but yes (I agree, not you're the only one), holy shit
Communism is when pants
Also using the 'USA has rule of law, CCP has rule by law' trope for translation of ζ³ζ²»
Rule of law is when I make something up about the constitution to send you to prison. 
Rule of law is when a panel of unelected Olds with several sex pests on it determines that it is legal for corporations to steal your brain to mine crypto and render your body into fuel for the nightmare reactor.
who the fuck wears a skirt while doing track?!
i thought they were called bloomers? like bicycle short length sweatpants
No one tell him about boys in the victorian age.
Not enough skirts now? Just put 'em on the dudes, ez
They also gave the boy long sleeves. Long sleeves = too hot = communism demands you stay inside when it's warm = totalitarianism.
And if it was the other way around it would "show" that the Chinese government is a regressive fascist government who pushes traditional gender roles on young children to train boys to be soldiers and girls to be brood mares or something, yadda yadda, roll Parenti quote.
socialist wokers
