In order to collect more data, understand the current situation of Chinese women and the possibility of feminism development, I interviewed several audiences.
1.Renbo Tang is a international students, male,25 years old.
When I first found him through WeChat and wanted to discuss feminism with him, he was very embarrassed at first, thinking that this topic is more sensitive and prone to debate.Then I told him I need to hear different voices, real feedback and only for academic research，He started to make a point.He admitted that China is still a patriarchal society with male privileges, and this is a serious problem in the whole world and it is not easy to change.When I asked him if he would support feminism, even though feminism sometimes threatens male interests.He cleverly avoided the question.
During my project research, find that whenever I discuss feminism with Chinese men, they are always very resistant. Because in their cognition, feminism seems to be rural feminism in China today.
2. Xirong Ren is a senior，Female ，21 years Old
I asked some of her views on feminism, and she said that she rarely heard this word, although she knew some women’s problems in society, she didn’t pay too much attention to it.At the same time, he believes that some social problems in Chinese society have always existed because the patriarchal society has been passed down from generation to generation, and women have not risen up to resist.
When I asked if she would be interested in using art to spread feminism, she said that for her and many of her classmates and friends, feminism and art are unfamiliar to them, and a more direct and simple way may be needed.
3.Juanjuan Zheng and Dandan Wang are both from more traditional areas of China, Minnan and Chaoshan.
When I ask them about their experiences growing up as women.Dandan Wang tell me that In her hometown, Chaoshan ,patriarchal thinking is still very serious. Generally, each family must have at least two boys. Parents think that it is useless for girls to study and they should get married when they reach the age. Even in the inheritance of family property. Daughters have no inheritance.
Juanjuan Zheng said that the older generation would be more traditional in their marriage customs, but now young people are gradually changing.
