What Makes a (Chinese) Woman Beautiful? Professor Robin Wang

[Anthony Pollard]

     Thank you Professor Wang for a wonderful lecture. First of all, maybe it was not intentional, but there was a conversation that will be told over and over again. Maybe, it isn't exactly the way it happened, but this is the way it was heard: "...that movie Crazy Asians?" reply was "Crazy Rich Asians" comment "Oh, I forgot about the rich part." This dispels some stereotypes heard amongst our students.

     Lesson planning for American Literature, it is reality and image. There are several units about individuality and women's voices, so regularly, current events pertain to women's movements, and students like to have discussions about it. Professor Wang provided the three main characteristics for a Chinese woman's beauty, which can actually apply to other women too. Researching literature related to the corresponding time periods will be the challenge, unless someone reading this post would like to help (17th century to the present will work.)
