“Guang Ming Daily criticized male celebrities for being effeminate, as they piled their faces with eyeshadow and lipstick instead of putting on masculine and determined images.”

Have this writer seen how determined those heavily made-up boyband members and idols are? They practice dancing and singing for hours everyday. Being determined does not belong to one gender.

I really don’t like this strict rule of what a man must look like and what a woman must look like. Let people be themselves. What makes a man a man is his action and conduct, not whether he puts on make up or not.
I’ve seen one video in youtube criticising effeminate male celebrities and put Lu Han as an example. Lu Han is the celebrity who rather lost thousands of fans than keep his girlfriend a secret. He once said he will let people know when he is in a relationship and he kept his words. He lets everyone know. When interviewers asked him why he did it despite knowing the risk of losing fans, he said he wants to be responsible to the girl.
Doesn’t this show him to be a true man? But he does look like a girl in many pictures and like other idols he wore make up.
