    Crackdown on streaming influencers because of the unhealthy body standards that were spreading.

    So another instance of (probably deliberate) mistranslation.

    It has more to do with the chinese male beauty ideal being different than the western one. In the west chisled muscles are the ideal, in China (and east asia in general) its the androgyne twink with flawless skin.

    The only video I've seen that discusses male beauty standards in China in any capacity was pretty contradictory and I thought the creator's conclusions betrayed (to a certain extent) the evidence that they presented. Video ->https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SMLURXHfFtw

    That being said, this video, your comments in this thread, and the relative lack of information on prolewiki about (specifically) masculinity in China leads me to ask about where I could go to learn more about Chinese masculinity.
