两性战争:一个被“美丽”夸大了的命题——兼谈构建现代形态的两性美学

Sexual debate as an over-exaggerated proposition of beauty——Reconstruction of the modern morphological esthetics of sex

“两性战争”是现代女性文学研究中的一个关键词,然而也是一个被女性主义者所夸大了的命题。这一命题发源并植根于西方文化话语,中国文化的特质决定了两性关系建基于独特的家庭关系之上,总体态势是平等、和谐的。无论是古代还是现在,女性处于被动和妥协,这种事实上的不平等,也说明中国古典形态的两性关系中女性地位的低下,现代形态中两性之间的争战不是根源于人性,而是中国社会生产力和生产关系所决定的。建构现代形态的两性美学对于最终消除两性战争有着积极的意义。

As the debate over sexes is regarded as a critical issue in the modern feministic literary researches, it is more often exaggerated by feminists. This proposition is rooted in the western cultural discourse. In contrast the sexual relationship is a unique phenomenon and remains stable of family relations in Chinese culture. However, females are vulnerable and compromising throughout history. This inequality speaks for the lower status of women in old times. The paper reveals that the real cause is not humanism, but the social relations. So it is positive to reconstruct the modem morphological esthetics in eventually eliminating sexual debates.
