Exploring Hong Kong's unique culture of the mistresses
"As a world financial centre, Hong Kong is a society that can legally and legally double milk - it should be known to the whole world, which is Hong Kong."On June 28, Hong Kong's former prime minister, Lin yili, launched an unprecedented "double milk" demonstration in Hong Kong.Despite the unappealing nature of the day, the storm blew up on the day of the parade, but it did not deter Hong Kong's original wife from carrying water.
After the wind and rain, more than 60 original wife took that read "monogamy in name only," "mistresses is a social problem, the government cannot ignore" banner, Shouting all the way from Hong Kong zhonghuan chater garden to the chief executive's office.In front of the flash and camera, they cover their faces with banners, as if they can reduce a little awkwardness and helplessness.
"It's not easy.This is the first time that Hong Kong people have marched in the streets to urge government legislation to stop the milk.The call was strong, of course, after I had been standing in the jotun district for three hours, collecting signatures from more than 4,000 supporters.If it hadn't rained, there would have been more people marching."
In an interview with reporters, she was hoarse.She says she sleeps almost two or three hours a day, almost every day.Despite the fact that the signatures and demonstrations have successfully mobilized many women in Hong Kong to actively fight against and strive for rights, the expectation is that the legislation will be effective and the resistance will remain high.
The most subtle of these is the attitude of the Hong Kong media.The unprecedented "pack two milks" parade, domestic web sites and media reports and buzz, even in the foreign media attention, but in Hong Kong, has not been an official mainstream media coverage of the event.
"All the media in Hong Kong are covered.'some people don't want to see us doing this, and the government doesn't want to see Hong Kong jokes around the world.'"I know who did it, but I'm not afraid of him," she said.
This phenomenon is not unique to Hong Kong, but the prevalence and openness of Hong Kong people's milk is the highest in the Chinese region.She said she did not begin to pay attention to and call for legislation to ban the milk."Since the 1980s, the ethos of 'whole people' has been hurting women in Hong Kong."
In 1998, Hong Kong was seen as a landmark event that caused serious social consequences.
Is that Hong Kong man jian-kang Chen's wife, because of dissatisfaction with her husband had mistresses in the mainland for a long time, and will be a small salary all spend on mistresses, one day in Hong Kong estate to morning floor scales will be ten years old, and the two sons of 6 years old left from the 14 floor, then jump off a building suicide.After the tragedy, jian-kang Chen the death of his wife and children do not feel sad, not only refused to arrange their affairs, also continue to travel to the mainland pleasure, and in the media on sexual comments, uproar from the Hong Kong society, and is referred to as the "modern" chen2 shi4 mei3 media.
"It's a typical case, and you'll find that it's not a privilege to have a few rich people in Hong Kong.Instead, they include ordinary wage earners, such as Chen's health, even lower-income pewers and container drivers.
In general, to build a second home in the long-term city is a financial threshold.To put it bluntly, "double milk", rich and talented people with capital, can not make up the majority of the total social family.But Hong Kong is an exception.
In the early years, the gap between income and consumption in Hong Kong was huge.Such as container truck drivers, mud workers and so on, during the economic boom, the monthly income of about hk $20, 000, in Hong Kong, is a low income and status group;But in the eyes of shenzhen's migrant workers, they are rich "king".The salaried people can keep a young mainland girl in the suburbs of shenzhen for only about 4,000 ~ 8,000 yuan.
Phoenix TV has made an incomplete statistics, in one of the shenzhen "second milk village" the huanggang community, the "er milk" of the Hong Kong people to keep the "second milk" there are 50,000 people.
"They (muddy water workers) one day, often take a bath without washing to catch up with shenzhen, smelly very!"Lin said that at the lo wu pass, there was a glimpse of Hong Kong men who were rushing to get their second milk.
In Hong Kong and Hong Kong, many men and women at the bottom of the Hong Kong society have the same status and enjoyment as the rich and powerful.
"Desperate housewives"
After Chen's health, Ms. Lin went on a long road to calling on Hong Kong's government to legislate against the ban.In 1998, she was elected to represent the National People's Congress in Hong Kong. For the first time, she put forward a proposal to prevent the Hong Kong people from taking second milk in the platform.
"I look at the Hong Kong news and find that on average two or three women in Hong Kong have committed suicide each week because their husbands have been breast-feeding, and the situation is really serious."
The cause of death in Hong Kong court in 2001 announced a statistical support according to Lin li observations: Hong Kong housewives suicides rising since 1998, 1998 to 1998, 1999, 116, 2000, 157 people, or an average of every two or three days there will be a housewife who committed suicide.
Spain ABeiSai newspaper had reported that the shenzhen famous er nai village, dahuang mistress phenomenon, pointed out that in shenzhen mistresses for Hong Kong businessmen, more middle-class clerks even van driver.Men spend thousands of yuan for mistresses rent apartments, with convenient to shenzhen during a meeting with mistresses, mistresses can earn thousands of yuan is the highest ten thousand yuan per month income, income is almost as their appearance, figure, sexy, and even "obedient" degree.
Foreign media for the first time, it may be to clear space report mistresses phenomenon in shenzhen, in shenzhen has a long history, in fact the word "er nai" "dahuang" celebrity also for shenzhen this immigration city "reputation" the country.Shenzhen economy developed, talented people, a large amount of wealth gathered here, the surplus property of the great creation also formed a large amount of surplus labor force.The boss and the migrant worker, the foreign sister and the native, the Hong Kong and the mainlanders, the rich and the poor, the former has a lot of idle assets to support the latter.In this a city may play a may get, "mistresses", "er nai" phenomenon has common, "more money, mistresses more and more cars on the street" has become the interpretation of dahuang village, shenzhen population sex ratio of 1:10, dahuang "er nai" and miss nightclub packed is the mainstream of the spare part women.
