Tian Ru Movement in the Republic of China: Women streaking for the liberation of breasts.

At the beginning of 1927, the national government moved from Guangzhou to Wuhan, and Wuhan became the center of the national revolutionary movement. The rapid development of the national revolutionary movement shocked the hearts of women in three towns in Wuhan. On March 8, the National Government organized more than 200,000 soldiers and civilians to hold an international women's conference in Hankou. March 8th is National Day. Then, suddenly, the military and civilians held a grand parade. The famous prostitute Jin and others were naked, waving colorful flags and shouting: Long live the women's liberation in China! Such as slogans, rushed into the parade. They all think that the most revolutionary women's liberation is naked parade. On March 28th, the cavalry training ground at the south foot of Sheshan Mountain was very lively, and the Women Soldiers Association of the Propaganda Group took to the streets to give a speech. They introduced themselves, rolled up their trouser legs and complained about being tied barefoot. Gu Lingzhi, a member of the propaganda group, shouted loudly: We must resolutely put down our feet and cut our hair, and resolutely oppose girdling! Stabbing the chest is the most inhuman! The corset is a poisonous snake! It haunts our women's bodies and souls. Speaking of excitement, she took off her coat and held her plump breasts in both hands and said, you see, this is the real liberation. He cried with tears in his eyes: Long live the women's liberation in China! Under the call of women, women get rid of buying and selling marriage, cut their hair, oppose corset and advocate free love. In July this year, at the thirty-third meeting of the Guangdong Provincial Government Committee of the Kuomintang, the proposal of girding the abdomen put forward by Zhu Jiahua, acting director of civil affairs, was passed. All women in this province are not allowed to wear corsets for three months. If there are still over-limit corsets, once verified, they will be fined above 50 yuan. If the criminal is under the age of 20, his parents will be punished. Subsequently, the breast liberation movement spread throughout the country. In the old society, it was unthinkable to wrap your feet and chest. However, women's liberation in China really started with the liberation of breasts. In the classical aesthetic consciousness of fashionable China, beautiful breasts are like You Sanjie, with a trace of snow preserved, but not exposed; Good breast milk is small milk, which was also called clove milk in ancient times. Therefore, women are not breast implants, but corsets. Zhang Ailing once described the classic beauty of breasts in Red Rose and White Rose: her undeveloped breasts are like a sleeping bird in her hand, like her own slightly beating heart and pointed beak, pecking at his hand, hard and tender, and tender is his palm. From the Song Dynasty to the Opium War, social control over women was gradually strengthened. A woman's clothes are covered, her breasts are tied and her feet are tied. One is not afraid of heat and the other is not afraid of suffering. In order to protect the festival name, the chest chooses not to be treated, although it is glorious to die. Speaking of it, it was also a fashion before the Republic of China. These traditions were interrupted in the early 20th century, and the western breast worship came from the ocean and took root. Even so, in the early years of the Republic of China, women's bodies could not be exposed. Even when she sleeps, she has to wear a long vest that is longer than her knees. An aesthetic that makes flat breasts beautiful and lets women tie their breasts with silk. However, some women who are pursuing individual liberation have begun to try small vests instead of cloth straps to tie their chests. Pony was first popular among prostitutes, and later good women gradually followed suit, so that it became a social fashion. The front piece of the pony's armor is decorated with a row of buttons, which tightly buckle the breast. This is also a mode of piercing the chest. Women who pursue openness can also show their amorous feelings in tight vests, because they use thin gauze to make vests and cover them with gauze to expose their arms and skin, so they are attacked by conservatives. 19 18 Summer, Shanghai Councillor Jiang Quesheng wrote to the General Office of Jiangsu Provincial Government: It is really indecent for women to wear lewd clothes. The sleeves of the coat are exposed about a foot, while the trousers hang over a foot. When it's hot, you wear a vest with red gauze inside and a hole in the outside until your muscles are exposed. He thinks this is a kind of obscenity, which has its other side.

1923 On April 29th, Zhang Jingsheng published an article "The Law of Love and the Study of Ms. Chen Shujun" in the supplement of Beijing Morning Post, which triggered the first big discussion on love in China history and attracted famous figures such as Liang Qichao and Lu Xun to attend. During the two-month discussion, he was criticized by most people, but his reputation spread from then on. 1924, Zhang Jingsheng gave a speech "Beautiful Outlook on Life", printed by Peking University. This is a speech full of petty-bourgeois ideas. In the beautiful part of sex education, he advocates nudity: walking naked, swimming naked, sleeping naked and so on. Sex education is a kind of entertainment. Like today's American couples talk show, he introduced the meaning of sexual intercourse and the function of sacred sexual intercourse in detail. This made China, who was shrouded in Neo-Confucianism, tremble, and Zhang Jingsheng became the public opinion direction of breast liberation: corset made a woman's virtue and sexual characteristics unable to be displayed, and her breasts were as flat as men, which not only made her lose her attraction, but also made the society lose a lot of interest. For a time, a good family began to quietly let the breasts breathe freely and grow independently. At that time, the news media called it the Tian Ru Movement. During 1926, there were two sensational news events in Beijing and Shanghai. First of all, Zhang Jingsheng published A History of Sex, which talked about the beauty of sex. Secondly, Liu Haisu, president of Shanghai Academy of Fine Arts, urged the 17th Western Painting Department to adopt nude models and make these nude pornographic paintings public in the exhibition. There was an uproar in the society and newspapers denounced it one after another. As a result, sexual history was banned, and Liu Haisu was almost arrested by Sun, a warlord who occupied Shanghai at that time. They are indeed several steps ahead of the times. Lin Yutang once described the grand occasion of the sale of sexual history as follows: the buyers and sellers of books were so busy that the police had to use water pipes to disperse the crowd. After being banned, there are countless pirates on the market. The supplement also began to introduce the beauty of curves. 1927 streaking, the breaking of any moral constraint, always changes with the breaking of political structure. 1927 is destined to be an extraordinary year in the history of China! At the beginning of the year, the national government moved from Guangzhou to Wuhan, and Wuhan became the center of the national revolutionary movement. The rapid development of the national revolutionary movement shocked the hearts of women in three towns in Wuhan. On March 8, the National Government organized more than 200,000 soldiers and civilians to hold an international women's conference in Hankou. March 8th is National Day. Then, suddenly, the military and civilians held a grand parade. The famous prostitute Jin and others were naked, waving colorful flags and shouting: Long live the women's liberation in China! Such as slogans, rushed into the parade. They all think that the most revolutionary women's liberation is naked parade. On March 28th, the cavalry training ground at the south foot of Sheshan Mountain was very lively, and the Women Soldiers Association of the Propaganda Group took to the streets to give a speech. They introduced themselves, rolled up their trouser legs and complained about being tied barefoot. Gu Lingzhi, a member of the propaganda group, shouted loudly: We must resolutely put down our feet and cut our hair, and resolutely oppose girdling! Stabbing the chest is the most inhuman! The corset is a poisonous snake! It haunts our women's bodies and souls. Speaking of excitement, she took off her coat and held her plump breasts in both hands and said, you see, this is the real liberation. With tears in her eyes, she shouted: Long live the women's liberation in China! Under the call of women, women get rid of buying and selling marriage, cut their hair, oppose corset and advocate free love. In July this year, the 33rd meeting of the Guangdong Provincial Government Committee of the Kuomintang passed the proposal of Zhu Jiahua, Acting Minister of Civil Affairs, on prohibiting women from girding their bellies. Within three months, all women in the province were forbidden to gird their bellies. Once it is found out, it will be fined above 50 yuan. If the criminal is under the age of 20, his parents will be punished. Subsequently, the breast liberation movement spread throughout the country. The ban has been imposed, and the Millennium ethos cannot be changed overnight. When Ms. Wei Qingfen was 90 years old, she still clearly remembered her experience of tightening her abdomen and loosening her chest: I developed earlier than other girls, and my chest was particularly big. My mother has been pricking my chest since I was fifteen.

At first my father-in-law kept his mouth shut: I can. If I punish him, I can't afford it? One day, a woman came to check at home and found that she was still tied up, and fined 50 yuan. Now my father-in-law is worrying about money again, so T asks my daughter-in-law to prick her chest again. Its corset is a traditional custom in China, which is good for women. Under the attack of radical cultural masters, under the influence of western thoughts and the surging revolutionary wave, it was gradually completely subverted and became the biggest revolution for women. Since the ban on foot binding, the United States has been liberated. At this time, Hu Shi had just returned to China and delivered a famous grandmother's speech at the graduation ceremony of Chinese and Western girls' schools. He suggested: without a healthy grandmother, you can't raise a healthy child! The newly established fashion magazine "National Daily" in Shanghai published a special topic about bras, introducing the styles and usage of European women. It is very popular among fashionable women. The department stores in Shanghai introduced these imported goods and put them in the most conspicuous position in the window. Young ladies, new women and celebrities rushed to snap up and sell out. Bras were then called artificial breasts. 19 14, Carresi crosby, an American woman, made her first bra with two handkerchiefs and a narrow ribbon, which not only tied her breasts but also highlighted them. Ruan, a famous movie star of the Republic of China from Zhongshan, Guangdong, dressed in cheongsam, left a stunning moment for future generations. Ruan is the first woman in China to wear artificial breasts. Her chest is round and perfectly combined with the curve of cheongsam. The charm of this curve is highly sought after by trendsetters. In Shanghai, women's wear pursues sexy amorous feelings and is keen on the design style of three-dimensional figure. Topless and bare arms have become a fashion trend for women. Zhang Ailing likes to parade around the city in strange clothes, which always gives people the feeling of unconventional. Mao Dun's Book Friends describes the open atmosphere of Shanghai in more detail. Swimsuit Shower In public swimming pools in Shanghai, Tianjin and Beijing, some modern girls in swimsuits have appeared on the beach in Beidaihe. 1930, Hong Jun, the daughter of Zhu Guishen, the chief interior minister of the Republic of China, swam in Beidaihe in a western-style bathing suit, which caused public outcry. Movie stars are at the forefront. Hu Die, Bai Yang and others put on swimsuits one by one and walked into the swimming pool to show their healthy bodies and ideas in the sun. An aristocratic family and professional woman who accepted western ideas took this small step, which was also a big step to declare war on feudal ethics. 1937, Mermaid Yang Xiuqiong risked his life to swim across the river in the Battle of Songhu, sent eight hundred heroes to guard the fourth-line warehouse, and a blue sky and white flag inspired eight hundred heroes to bravely resist the enemy. 1935, Yang Xiuqiong caught up with the international fashion of swimwear and put on a two-piece swimsuit. Her swimsuit photo was published in Midnight magazine. She is from Dongguan, Guangdong. She won two freestyle championships when she was 12 years old. 1933, she swept all the gold medals in women's events. Song Meiling, Chiang Kai-shek's wife, recognized her as her adopted daughter while watching the war. Advertising can always reflect the aesthetic trend of the times at the first time. At this time, a semi-naked beauty appeared on posters and monthly cards, covering her breasts with gauze and cloth, showing a plump and sexy aesthetic taste. Even many advertisers use naked women in famous western paintings as the basis, and replace them with the heads of beautiful women in China to attract business. At that time, Lin Yutang marveled at the year of China: the imprisonment of women is gone forever. Its speed surprised those who just came back from China ten years ago. Habits are always born in surprises again and again, so that today, people are no longer surprised that women wear sexy clothes. This is the times!
