The Rise of the Writers of the Republic of China

Shanghai, Yi Ding Pan Road.

This place was not originally a leased land, but the public concession crossed the boundary ten years ago to build a road, and occupied this place as well.

The famous Chinese and Western Girls' School is located here. It is the most famous girls' school in Shanghai. The three sisters of the Song family all studied here. Later Zhang Ailing was also an alumnus of the Chinese and Western Girls' School.

At nine o'clock in the morning, female students ran wildly to the auditorium in groups, laughing and laughing, youthful and lively.

Those who can study in Chinese and Western Girls' Schools are all wealthy, because the fees are too expensive. The schooling period is ten years, and the annual tuition fee is 80 yuan. You can buy a house by the time you graduate.

"Why isn't Mr. Zhou here yet?"

"His underwear is so beautiful."

"Hey, what's your cup size?"

"Cup B, what's the matter?"

"Oh my god, you are actually a B cup, and our entire dormitory is A."

"What can I do? I don't want to be that big either."

"What do you think Mr. Zhou will talk about today?"

"It must be about underwear, hahahaha."

"Ah, here we come. Look at the one next to the dean, it must be him."

"Mr. Zhou is so handsome, I wonder if he is married."

"Oh, someone's heart flutters."

"..."

Amidst the chattering of the female students, Zhou Hexuan walked into the auditorium. He looked down and was a little surprised, because the girls were wearing neither cheongsams nor civilized new clothes, but school uniforms similar to western-style maid clothes.

Khan, this situation is reminiscent of an island country action movie.

"Students, please be quiet!"

Lu Guchun raised his hand to signal, and said: "Today, I am honored to invite Mr. Zhou Hexuan, a famous scholar, to our Chinese and Western girls' school to give a lecture. Everyone must abide by the rules and do not interrupt indiscriminately. After the lecture, students can raise their hands to ask questions...Mr. Zhou ,please."

At this time, the Chinese and Western Girls' School used English textbooks except for the Chinese class, and even the principal was a foreigner. There are even home economics classes, which teach girls how to do housework, take care of children, and get along with their husbands and in-laws, so married women from some wealthy families are sent to the class.

The girls sitting under the stage at the moment ranged in age from their teens to their thirties, and those who were too young did not come.

Zhou Hexuan opened his mouth and asked, "Have you let your chest go?"

"Let go! Hahahaha." The female students replied in unison, while using laughter to cover up their shyness and embarrassment. There are also some girls who didn't show their breasts. At this time, they lowered their heads in shame, feeling very ashamed, thinking about going back and showing their breasts.

"Since I'm letting my chest out, I won't talk about grandma doctrine anymore," Zhou Hexuan said with a smile, "but what should I talk about?"

Suddenly a girl shouted: "I have a dream!"

Zhou Hexuan said: "Dreams have to be realized step by step. We are all girls, so let me talk about the dream of women's liberation. Excuse me, what is women's liberation? Everyone can answer by raising their hands... Very good, the third from the left in the second row The students are very active, so go ahead and talk about it.”

The girl stood up and said: "Women's liberation means that women no longer look at men's faces, and men and women are equal in society."

Zhou Hexuan nodded and said, "Yes, equality between men and women is the ultimate goal of women's liberation. But why are men and women unequal? ​​The student in the middle of the sixth row please answer."

"Because men are inherently stronger and smarter than women," the girl replied.

"This answer is very one-sided," Zhou Hexuan began a long speech, "Inequality between men and women is actually a part of social inequality. Although our constitution stipulates that all citizens are equal, it is obviously impossible. Governors and military governors, they will Is it equal to a rickshaw driver? No. Because the governor and the warlord hold power, status and money. Similarly, men control most of the resources in this society, and women need to rely on men to survive, which will inevitably lead to inequality between men and women."

Suddenly another girl interrupted and said, "Mr. Zhou, why do some families depend on the husband's face even though the woman earns money to support the family?"

"This question is a good question, and it has risen to the moral level," Zhou Hexuan said. "Men control social resources, thus forming a patriarchal society, and then deriving patriarchal thoughts. Patriarchal thoughts are the moral principles of a patriarchal society, so even if A few women are very good, but they are still oppressed by this kind of patriarchal thinking. From the perspective of human history, we can see that as far back as the matriarchal clan era, it was a feminist society at that time, and men had to listen to women."

As soon as this remark came out, there was an uproar in the audience, and many girls didn't know that there was a matrilineal clan.

Zhou Hexuan continued: "Why was it a feminist society at that time, because the productivity was insufficient. Human beings could not obtain food stably, the hunting casualty rate was high, and many people died of disease. Humans need to rely on women to reproduce, plus breeding, gathering, textiles, etc. The stability of the society makes the status of women more important. Again, whoever controls the social resources has the final say. With the improvement of productivity, especially the development of planting, human food is becoming more and more abundant. This At that time, the most important things for the primitive tribes became agriculture and war, and both of them were mainly dependent on men. Thus, a patriarchal society was formed, which has continued to this day!"

The girls suddenly realized.

Research on matriarchal clans probably started in the 1860s, but did not receive widespread attention until the 1920s. What Zhou Hexuan said was a cutting-edge scientific speech, which was enough to make the students of the girls' school suddenly enlightened.

Zhou Hexuan also said: "If you want to achieve equality between men and women, there is one most direct way. That is to fight a world war. Adult men are almost dead, and factories must recruit a large number of female workers. When women have enough social resources, they can start. Participating in politics, so naturally becomes gender equality."

The rise of women's rights in Europe is because too many men died in World War II. At that time, it was normal for women to support their families, especially in Germany, France and other countries, from government schools to company factories, there were women everywhere.

So those fighters clamoring for women's rights, please work hard, there is no gain if you don't pay.

At this moment, Zhou Hexuan's words are obviously too shocking. After all, a large number of men in a country have died, which is really unimaginable. He smiled and continued: "If you don't rely on fighting, you can only rely on women to fight. You must always remember that you are not a man's vassal. You must be self-respecting, self-improving, self-loving, and self-reliant. What is self-esteem? That is yourself You have to look up to yourself. There are many women nowadays who just don’t have self-esteem and take discrimination for granted. What is self-improvement? That is to dare to say no and dare to fight. What is self-love? That is not to be too indulgent. Women’s liberation does not mean that they can do everything. The necessary social moral bottom line must be observed. What is self-reliance? That is, you can support yourself without relying on men to survive."

"Self-esteem, self-improvement, self-love, and self-reliance! These eight words are really good, and they sum up the ethics of progressive women so thoroughly." Lu Guchun's eyes lit up when he heard it.

Zhou Hexuan said with a smile: "I guess you don't like to listen to long speeches. Then I will talk about love alone, which you should be more interested in."

love?

As soon as the girls heard this word, they immediately pricked up their ears, which was indeed what they were most interested in.

Zhou Hexuan turned around and picked up the chalk, and wrote the words "To the Oak Tree" on the blackboard:

"If I love you—

It's not like the climbing skyflower,

Use your tall branches to show off yourself.

if i love you-

Never learn from lovebirds,

Repeat the monotonous song for the green shades..."
