American male stars are not like this. Most of them are tough guy style. In other words, the feminization of male stars is only a problem in East Asia, which does not seem to be the case in European and American entertainment circles.
So, what is the reason for this difference?
In fact, the root of all this comes from the United States. The beginning of the feminization of male stars is because jenis firm, an entertainment company established in Japan in the 1980s. The founder of the company is hidokawa. Hidokawa is the initiator of the feminization of male stars in the entertainment circles of China, Japan and South Korea. But all this was not caused by hidokawa alone, but he succeeded in creating this trend with the help of Americans.
It has to start with Japan after World War II.
After the defeat of the Second World War, Japan was a puppet of the United States from politics to economy and culture. However, at the beginning, the control of Japan by the United States was not so smooth. At that time, there were two major powers in the world, the United States and the Soviet Union. Japan was also one of the arenas of the struggle for power between the United States and the Soviet Union. At that time, the Soviet Union controlled the whole northern part of Japan. In this struggle in Japan, the United States was at a disadvantage at the beginning.
After all, in World War II, the US military dropped two atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan, and the US soldiers stationed in Japan after the war often committed crimes and bullied the Japanese. So Japanese people can say they hate Americans! In addition, in order to enhance its international influence, the Soviet Union sent many Japanese prisoners of war back to Japan after the war and vigorously promoted socialism. Therefore, compared with the United States, the Japanese had a better impression of the Soviet Union.
However, the United States will not wait to die and allow the Soviet Union to expand its influence in Japan. At that time, the United States put forward a bold idea: to control the Japanese in terms of ideology and public opinion, in order to keep Japan away from the Soviet Union and close to the Americans.
The first person to put forward this idea was George Cannan, an American diplomat.
He suggested that the control of Japanese public opinion should be left to "experts who understand Japan". Then who is the expert who understands Japan - the answer is Japanese war criminals.
At that time, intellectuals and officials in Japan were fanatical nationalists. They could not help the United States and cooperate with the United States. Only the war criminals who committed heinous crimes in World War II had blood on their hands and had to work for the United States in order to survive.
A CIA cable revealed what the Americans wanted at that time:
The left side of the telegram is the password table and the right side is the name of the person. It can be seen that almost all major Japanese media have been attracted by the United States, and many class a war criminals of World War II are full of them. The war criminal Xufang Zhuhu, who once advocated the September 18th Incident, escaped the death penalty under the shelter of the United States and served as the general manager of Asahi Shimbun. Another war criminal, Masayoshi matsutaro, once encouraged countless young people to invade China and escaped sanctions. The Americans supported him to establish Yomiuri Shimbun, Japan's largest newspaper
