"In December, the country's education authorities responded for the first time to a controversial proposal raising alarm about a perceived deterioration of masculinity in Chinese boys.
In the "Proposal to Prevent the Feminization of Male Adolescents," Si Zefu, a delegate to China's top political advisory body, said that Chinese boys are becoming "weak, timid and low self-esteemed," traits which he summed up in one word: feminization."
Literally rambling about "chinese boys losing their masculinity due to "sissy pants artists"". Very LGBT friendly LMFAO
I'm sure that the word of the law explaining the restriction and crackdown on wealthy, bourgeois lifestyles and social media presence is the exact same as a single person saying "effiminate men are icky" -/s
Noone said its the same thing. But if CGTN, an official organ of the chinese state, can write an article with such blatant disgusting homophobic drivel, then its clear that homophobia is a big problem in China.
Of course homophobia is a problem in China, I take issue with people claiming that the law is specifically targeting effeminate and lgbt men. I've read stories and posts from actual LGBT comrades in China that have said that the law doesn't mention effiminate men or that the media circus surrounding it exagerates things.
China never banned "sissy men" that was a mistranslation.
It was not a mistranslation. Read this CGTN article about this same topic in 2021:
