Chinese dramas have been feeding their female audience a steady diet of feminist slop.
Men in C-dramas are basically second-class citizens now. ππ Reverse harems have become the norm, even in historical settings where the exact opposite would have been the norm.
I've also noticed that the less personality or dignity an ML has in front of the FL he loves, the more fans call him "the standard." (The standard for simps. π)
At the same time, the colder and more indifferent the FL is toward men, the more viewers seem to love her. They enjoy watching the ML suffer, chase her endlessly, while a bunch of other simps compete for her attention.
Almost every episode, she's surrounded by another guy trying to win her over. They all get their turn to save her and play the hero, but in the end she chooses the MLβwho, even if he's a prince, spends most of the drama acting like a loyal puppy, hoping for the smallest bit of affection in return. π this was the plot of a recent cdrama ended couple of days ago π π
Well, the C-drama writers all have a Master's degree in how to make FLs look incompetent (even the ones supposedly…
and a PhD in how to make men simps without dignity , that love a woman that reject them many times and an ml simp that tolerate all that and just get jealous and can't say anything because she don't give a dam about his feelings , and fight with his brother and her ex husband and his brother and every man saw her fall in love so he has to low himself and act as a dog to get her attention and at the end she start like him because he's a good boy ππ π π
so you telling me she didn't let other men close around her and ml jealous most of the time !? and she stopped…
Is it really enjoyable to watch a couple of simps fighting over one cold-hearted woman while the ML is insecure, jealous, and forced to tolerate everything because he can't do anything about it?
Now imagine the opposite: a bunch of simp women fighting over one ML while he doesn't give a damn about them, stays cold-hearted, and directly or indirectly takes advantage of their love for his own benefit. Then one or two of them die because they couldn't have him, and the one who finally ends up with him has to do everything in the relationship while he just relaxes because he has "more important things" to do. She's basically his reward for all the hardships he went through in the past, and he doesn't even really like her until two-thirds of the drama is over. ππππ
I'd bet my house that it would become one of the lowest-rated dramas. π
There were differences between drama and the novel. instead of Changqing,it was Changying who died. the emperor…
so this fl is the anime ml version when everyone love him just because he's the ml πππ
and ml has to deal with the jealousy and tolerate being in second or third on her priority list, don't ask much from her because she gave everything for her ex-husband and she's don't need him he needs her so he has to do everything and wait for his chance π and he has to do everything in the relationship later also because she also did that once for her ex, so it's ml's turn even when it's not his fault , and act as proud because he get a scratch from her , when she did that for her ex husband more π waw, what a love story πππ and they don't make fl, as you said, cringey and cutesy, but they change it to ml, so he's the one who plays that role in a slightly different way, but still he's just a support character whose whole role is to love fl and die trying to make her give him a chance, and he competes with many other men she keeps around, in a way. π
This drama has a little bit of everything. The two leads are total red flags, but they aren't like that from beginning…
How ml change from red flag being a simp without dignity, running after fl because he fall in love!? Is not he was in love from start!? And I said it: writers in cdrama world always make mls suffer because of fl past emotional baggage, and he should be a simp, doing everything and loving her unconditionally so she give him a small chance to prove himself more, while she don't even like him till the last third of the drama. π π While in past she was doing everything for her ex who betrayed her love, so ml should suffer because of her ex even when ml didn't do anything bad. And her love for him at the end is just a one-sided relationship, and she chooses the one who benefits her very well, and she don't care if he's in her life or not because she don't need anyone, she's that independent. And if he's around, it's okay, she can give him some time. ππ π
In this kind of drama, the last thing you can see is fl love ml even one third as much as he love her or do anything in the relationship. It's all on him to make the relationship work. Unfortunately, no equality, like in anime where mc have a harem of simp fls that fall in love with one look from him and have no dignity, except anime is just anime, but this should be real to a degree. So why they make mls simps without dignity? All their role is to fall in love with the independent, strong, smart, undisputed fl, the one no one come near because she's perfect all around. π ππ Like mcs of anime exactly.
Gosh I dont think I can ever find a more strong, independent, and clear communicating woman in another drama.…
so you telling me she didn't let other men close around her and ml jealous most of the time !? and she stopped other smls from misunderstood her and think they have a chance!? and she shows her love to ml so there no misunderstood!? I will be shocked if they write a fl in this kinyof drama as this
so she really in a relationship with his brother and have sleep with!? and ml stitlove her and want to be with…
ah good, I thought fl playing with his brother's heart and in real relationship with him while ml also love her still . of they only acting they in relationship it's not that bad towards ml I think, I wait to see if it's happy ending to try watching it. thank you
okay, heβs DOWN bad for her.... he can keep her secrets, her plans, even her hidden agenda... but hurting his…
but he didn't so je still hurting his brother and it's π€’ that he still want her even when she's playing with his brother's heart, and it's will be crazy if it has a happy ending with both of them while the brother dead or give them blessing
The scene with the photos of Murongβs severed tendons was honestly one of the most gripping moments so far.…
so she really in a relationship with his brother and have sleep with!? and ml stitlove her and want to be with her!? is it really this cucumber ml they write!? thank you
Ohoo bro, she didn't really like either of them. She only said Prince Li is a good person because he's straightforward,…
so forced a kiss now is not bad it's only a mistake and him doing a little good thing made him a good person!? waw they making ml in cdrama more and more simps tolerate this kind of fl that don't have any problem with someone did everything mentioned above but still she see the good in him but when he did everything for her she see the bad in him, later when someone force himself on her physically let's see if she will say he has six pack so he's good,
and you said he respect her boundaries after all. what je did waw what a gentleman, if ml did even half of what he did he would have apologizing half of the drama and most fans would call him red flag toxic shit πππππ. this double standard and plot armor only working with sml that making mls jealous and fl still be friends with them and go alone with them even if they forced kissed her or try even more πππ
Where is the plot for finding the person that poisoned him, ML is too simp at this point and story is dragged…
what you expect from mls in this kind of cdramas!!? they only compete who's more simp not about anything else, I said it couple of days ago mls I'm cdramas are support characters that not even have deep role than fl ex or other love interest as sml, mls only fall in love after it their life become how they get fl accept them and tolerate everything she doing even if it's make him. suffering he will accept it, and especially in this reverse harem that fl ruthless and cold you see potential being with many men not only ml but because he's the simp he will win at the end when she start like him a little, she even saved her ex what do you waiting moreπ πππ
what mutual!? she will never love him as he love her or do what he did for her, yes she maybe will like him but…
In novels, the male leads also have some dignity and masculinity, at the bare minimum. But in C-dramas, they change it, and write male leads into supporting characters whose only goal is to fall in love with the female lead, love her unconditionally, and do everything for her. That's it. Meanwhile, the female leads get revenge arcs, past relationship trauma, or dreams of becoming independent businesswomen. Unfortunately, I can't remember a recent costume C-drama where the female lead loved the male lead as much as he loved her. Maybe I watched some in the past, but in recent years it's mostly been one-sided love for two-thirds of the drama, and then in the last third she decides she likes him because he did so much for her or because he's not like her ex. π
ML had exes in the time skip. but that arc wasn't explored then,it was revealed in eps 19 that he also dated other…
Ah, C-drama writers still haven't changed much. π The FL's ex is still around, he's her boss, she's always with him, and the ML has to deal with it and tolerate everything. Meanwhile, the ML's ex doesn't even show upβshe's only mentioned. π ππ
And the worst part is when they write the FL as not caring about how much he's suffering because of how close she is to her boss, while she keeps making him jealous.
he dated 2 actually but mentioning 1 in the drama only
good thank you, because it's frustrating how they only write fl dating others while ml still single after a decade time skip, I read, that she's with her ex working or something but she mad or something because mo. ex around!? is why have double standard or what's her case!? thank you
is ml also dated another woman in time skip or it's just the fl!? and why fl jealous of sfl but she can't see herself with her ex working as normal and not even say it till he said it to make ml suffer π is it like always ml only loves fl even when she was dating others!? and he stayed single waiting for her!? thank you

Thanks. I guess it's not for me after all because I really hate these clichΓ©s. I was just surprised they gave the ML a past ex. Then I started thinking they might later reveal that he never actually dated anyone and only said it to tease the FL, or because of some situation where he had to pretend he had an ex. πππ
