Women in Shanghai gather in bars, salons and bookstores to reclaim their identities as the country’s leader calls for China to adopt a “childbearing culture.”

First off, terrible headline. The “ruled by men” is totally unnecessary and biased.

Second, there are certainly much worse events going on in the world right now. This is hardly the most important.

It’s an interesting article though about how some women feel in China about government policies and how they’re meeting to discuss feminism and women empowerment. It’s disappointing to see that the Chinese government has adopted a similar stance to US Republicans.

    No I agree with you, it is an accurate take, it just feels unnecessary in a headline and a bit biased.

    That said, it was probably unnecessary for me to mention too. I tried too hard to preempt criticism in my description. I’ll just delete that and let the article stand for itself. Ironically, I’m doing more editorializing by saying all that.

    Edit: As for the actual subject matter of the article, Jesus < 8% representation is low for ~49% of the population. It’s unacceptable.
