In modern China, which achieved national prosperity at an unprecedented pace, slogans such as "Chinese Youth" and "New Youth" became indispensable in depicting the new China. Since the Republic of China, educational novels depicting the growth of young people have become popular. However, subconsciously, these "youths" and "teenagers" often referred to men. Girls were sometimes encouraged to grow into useful members of society; at other times, they were required to return to the family and become a kind of support force at home. It can be said that women were a group that had been obscured by culture and politics for a long time.
在以空前速度实现国家富强的近代中国,“中国少年”“新青年”等就成为用来描绘崭新中国时不可或缺的口号。中华民国以来,描写青年成长的教养小说变得盛行起来。但潜意识里,这些“少年”“青年”往往指的是男性。少女们有时会被鼓励成长为可用之材;有时又会被要求回归家庭,成为后方的某种支援力量。可以说,女性是长时间以来被文化政治遮蔽的群体。
