China's Advanced Gender Culture

Theoretically speaking, the gender culture in socialist society should be the most progressive culture so far. However, consistent with the characteristics of cross-parallel development of capitalist society and socialist society in the world, gender culture in these two social forms also has the characteristics of cross-development.

In nature, capitalism adjusts gender relations on the basis of inviolability of private ownership, while socialism carries out gender relations revolution on the basis of public ownership and equal possession of property by men and women. Institutionally, it took hundreds of years of struggle for capitalism to establish the legal norms of equality between men and women, and the principle of equality between men and women was legally established at the beginning of socialism; From the process of promoting equality between men and women, it takes a long time and a great price for women to pursue equality in capitalist society, but in socialist society, women's development has been won in a short time at a relatively small price, which has promoted the process of equality between men and women.

From a vertical perspective, the gender culture in socialist society is obviously advanced, and its core is to establish a social system of equality between men and women, which is manifested in political civilization and institutional civilization.

From a horizontal perspective, the current gender culture in China is still diverse and at different levels, which can be divided into: the existence of multiple gender theories; The legal policy system is not perfect; There are three complex gender concepts in the field of popular culture. There are many advanced elements in gender theory and popular culture.

In addition, from a global perspective, gender culture between countries influences and promotes each other, which is characterized by permeability and interactivity. Feminism-feminism, gender awareness and gender equality was first put forward in western developed countries, and it has been further improved and promoted through the practice in different countries.

At present, the diversity of gender culture is not only manifested in the whole cultural institution, but also in everyone. It is hard to say that a person is full of advanced cultural factors in theory, thought and behavior. He may have established the gender concept of equality between men and women in the mainstream understanding, but he still stays in the thinking system of inequality between men and women.

We try to define the advanced gender culture in China at this stage: the definition of advanced gender culture with China characteristics should be guided by the Marxist concept of women and Theory of Three Represents, with the goal of equality between men and women, facing the world and the future, with nationality, scientificity and popularity.
