From what I mentioned in last project, in this project, I’ll continue digging people’s attitude toward feminist. This time, instead of people who I know them directly, I choose to investigate people who has indirectly connection with me, like friends and relatives of my friends and my family, etc.
Friends and relatives of my friend and my family,
schoolfellows, classmates, co-workers, even strangers.
After linking people who have a connection with me, I spread a questionnaire via WeChat to collect their attitude towards some social facts and hot topics on feminism to collect their answers. It only takes one minute to finish this small survey and it can collect data on Age, Gender, Geographic location…
And this is a anonymous survey, so I suppose that the results can be relatively objective.
Also, I asked them if they would like to share their stories with me.
By finishing this survey, I successfully found people who are willing to share their stories with me.
The project is separate into two parts: “monologue” and “conversation”.
And for better understanding, I made a sub for each of them.
“MONOLOGUE“
#1: Disrespected labor
a old lady (67 years old), talking about her marriage
Unhappy marriage; Cold violence from husband; Bear the stress of childcare alone.
#2: Age Discrimination
A 26-year-old woman talking about her story of forced blind date
Pressure of single; Lack of understanding of friends and family; Age discrimination;
“older women are devalued”
#3: Voice from Male
From a male social media influencer, who is self-recognize as “anti-feminist”
“Chinese female failed to deserve Chinese male”
“Conversation”
A talk between a couple, talking about their futures.
This conversation was created by me in conjunction with a hot social issue and covers many controversies about women’s rights in China.
The conversation takes place in the context of a couple’s fight, they have just been dating for three months but the man has already planned to get married, while the woman is not.
And thanks to my friend Chen and Isa for dubbing.
This conversation contains age discrimination of female; stress/pressure from the society; gender discrimination in the workplace…
