      Since I don't wish to offend, distract, or otherwise bother you might not want to read whatever else is in this comment (time is precious)
      I think Chinese women are starting to feel less compelled to have/want white skin. I also think Chinese women still want an oval face, with large cute ears, and a tiger tooth, which are not Western beauty standards. I generally don't talk about race because people can be horrible, why fixate, let alone encourage. Women the world-wide became more muscular during the past 50 years, though of course in murrica many others became overweight, to put it politely.
      White skin is an adaptation to the absent sunlight in northern climate: it arose from the fact we absorb vitamin d through the skin. I am reasonably certain white people are more likely, even much more likely to get skin cancer; I am old enough that this fact (use sun screen to avoid skin cancer) was not known in my childhood.
      I don't think there are any beauty standards about noses, which is interesting since that is where physiognomy varies most.
      Yeah, westerners don't know about double versus single eyelids. I personally have no preference, and hope that this desire to change one's face with surgery disappears as racism declines, which is also a world-wide trend.
      Btw I'm old enough that literal race segregation was still a reality during my childhood. You probably don't know either how bad it was, or how much improvement has happened.
      I should be less lazy and write this in Chinese.
      btw Hanfu is wonderful, which is a thing that arose fairly recently, just in the last 10 years or so.
      I can tell you about Russian beauty standards. Expect lots of Chinese-Russian marriages with Chinese men and Russian women. Basically Russian life kills of the men, and sex selection killed of Chinese women, so they both have a population imbalance, but in the opposite direction.
      Like we see I am not a diplomat.

    It's a lot of wasted energy isn't it? I tell my daughter as long as you eat right and exercise to be fit and healthy that's your best version. In the world there are tall beauties, petite beauties, big eyes beauties small eyes beauties, light skinned beauties and dark skinned beauties etc etc. Don't fall into the trap of trying to be something unnatural to yourself. If you see a different type of beauty you can appreciate it and if you are confident there will be people who can appreciate your type of beauty as well. If you encounter a boy that wants you to change to be a different type of girl he needs to chase that type instead of trying to change you to be something you're not. Anyway my first time watching your channel. I'm trying to improve my Mandarin and this kind of content helps!

    I love the series Chinese Unfiltered because it teaches us more than just new words; it shows how to maintain a conversation with native Chinese speakers. Thank you!
    A good topic idea would be the language gap between us (30years+) and the younger generation. I’ve been living outside my home country for over 12 years, and when I talk to my nephews or watch something on TV, I often have to figure out certain words from the context, because just hearing them wouldn’t be enough for me to understand. I imagine you might feel the same. This would be interesting because it reflects the everyday Chinese spoken by the younger generation, which hasn’t yet made its way into the textbooks created by our generation. So, it would not be video about teaching expression, rather how language is alive and how it marks each generation. Because, sometimes reading Weibo is like reading Confucian, need a lot of interpretation to suppress the generation gap.

    I think you are all beautiful. Do not get hung up on physical beauty. A man wants a lady who who is loving, kind and emotionally supportive. Compliment a man like you would want to be complimented. Tell him he is nice and kind and fun to be around. There is a double standard. But it works both ways.
    There is a saying; girls get flowers on birthdays and valentines and on dates, but a man gets flowers from a girl for the first time at his funeral and on then on his grave.

    When I was in China everyone was so obsessed with beauty standards and everyone could talk about it like you. I am from Germany and If I would make such a video I would not know what to say. We dont talk about beauty that much like chinese.

    Hi Rita laoshi, in the future can you also put the subtitles in the video, not embedded so that we can use migaku to study your video?

    Rita! 同为汉教人,特别喜欢你的内容,也推荐给了我的自己的学生。小小的反馈:感觉剪辑切得有点儿快,视觉上有些晃眼,不知道其他小伙伴同样的感受。

    I appreciate listening to the Mandarin no matter what the content. These two women do well at that. According to stats 42% of Americans are obese. I don't think there is a word in mandarin that differentiates fat and obese.

    Pale European's skin may be a weak point. It's almost transparent and very sensitive to sunburn and wrinkles more easily.
