歪国仁如何看待中国男士帮女士拎包

Purse Strings, GuysIt's Time to Cut Those

文Murray Greig

Where I come from Canadian northwest—there are only two acceptable reasons for a man to carry his lady's purse: 1) she is holding a baby (preferably his); 2) she is holding a gun.

End of discussion.

But take a stroll through any Beijing shopping mall or trendy hutong, and you will quickly discover the exact opposite holds true here.

Y ou'll see veritable legions of young men enthusiastically contorting themselves into pathetic①pathetic 英 [pə'θetɪk] 美 [pə'θɛtɪk] adj. 可怜的,悲哀的;感伤的;乏味的 同义词:poor , sad , melting , stupid"I suppose every filmmaker has the naive, even pathetic dream that his film could be the one that finally stopsa war, " said Maoz., panting pack mules ... weighed down by backpacks and 1 0-gallon Prada purses while their sweethearts sashay alongside, texting on their cellphones.

Trust me, young Chinese men. I'm riding into the sunset now, and I have no desire to see you succumb②②succumb 英 [sə'kʌm] 美 [sə'kʌm] 短语succumb to 屈服于;死于;屈从;屈从于 Most of us are known to succumb to persuasion through the media.to the same insidious social malaise that has infected much of North America over the past decade.

A lthough I couldn't understand a word, a recent CCTV docudrama about the life of Genghis Khan was mesmerizing in its sweeping③sweeping 英 ['swiːpɪŋ] 美 ['swipɪŋ] adj. 彻底的;广泛的;扫荡的 Sweeping Day 清明节 原形:sweep英 [swiːp] 美 [swip]vt. 扫除;猛拉;掸去 sweep away 清除;一扫而空 sweep off 大量清除;拂去;扫去;扫清portrayal of the great conqueror as the ultimate A ssertive Man - and not once was he depicted toting his concubine's saddlebag.

So make a solemn resolution for 2016, guys: Cut those purse strings, and watch more TV. No need to thank me. Your salvation is my reward.

我来自加拿大西北部在我们那里只有在两种情况下男士才会为女士拎包:1.她怀里抱着孩子(如果是他的最好);2.她拿着一把枪。

没有其他商量的余地。

但当你在北京逛商场或者胡同里溜达,你很快会发现在帮女士拎包方面跟我们那里截然不同。

你会看到大批充满活力的年轻男生总是积极地争做可怜的驴子,背上背着沉重的双肩包和大大的Prada包,而他们旁边的女友边走边扭地在手机上发着信息。

中国的男士们,相信我!我年纪已经很大啦可能离开中国之后就再也不回来啦,但是我不希望看到你们也陷入令人不舒服的社会怪癖之中,就跟北美大部分地区在过去10年里所经历的一样。

尽管我一句话也不懂,但是最近中央电视台播出的关于成吉思汗的纪录片里描述了成吉思汗作为一位坚毅勇敢的伟大征服者的戎马一生,里面就一次也没出现过他背着侍妾的鞍囊的画面。

所以,男士们,从2016年开始,不要再为身边的女士拎包啦,还是多看点电视吧!不用谢我,你对自己的救赎就是对我的奖励。
