The TV series The Legend of the New White Snake was all the rage in the 1990s. The kind and beautiful image of White Snake is deeply rooted in people's hearts; The story of Xiao Gan falling in love with someone is a beautiful story in China culture. Influenced by various cultures, writers also deliberately use the world view hidden in readers' hearts to describe the goblins in their works.
Snakes are cold-blooded animals and mysterious animals that people can easily contact. At this time, various artistic treatments will portray them as psychic things. Although their gender identity is uncertain, it has a lot to do with the social aspects when they were born.
In ancient society, men dominated and the cultural audience was mainly men. In order to meet the requirements of the audience, the "supernatural" events related to feelings are naturally portrayed artistically, but in reality, most of the tempters are men, so women who are snake monsters are more acceptable than male audiences. The softness of the snake was deliberately enlarged and turned into a beautiful and charming woman.
At the same time, we are talking about most cases, and some snake spirits appear as male images. For example, the snake spirits in The Legend of the Sword and the Chivalrous Man are all male images. It can also be found that in the era when there is no gender inequality, monsters have also begun to infinitive gender.
In fact, the image of snake essence is very good in more ancient times. ..... Snake essence is the embodiment of Nu Wa, the mother of mankind.
In TV series or movies, why are snake spirits all women? At first, I felt the same way. Why are snake spirits all women, not men? In fact, when it comes to goblins, they all mean extraordinary beauty in China's cultural heritage. In real life, extraordinary beauty refers to women. It is easy for the public to accept playing goblins with ladies, which has a certain public cognitive basis.
In addition, for people in real life, snakes give people the feeling that they are cold-blooded species, and often let the protagonist play the white snake. First of all, it does not conform to the characteristics of snakes. It is said that men are masculine and women are feminine. Therefore, it is generally impossible for a hero to perform snake essence, which will make people feel that way.
Speaking of goblins, they may be monsters. In fact, in China's cultural heritage, they all mean extraordinary beauty. In real life, extraordinary beauty refers to women. Playing goblins with ladies is a very acceptable fact for the public.
Beautiful, soft and colorful. Water snake waist snake represents softness, not rigidity. It seems that tigers, lions, orangutans and other powerful types are basically men, while butterflies, flowers, snakes, foxes and other beautiful and flexible types all represent women.
Qiu Xinzhi's White Snake, Singaporean White Snake, Fan Wenfang's Green Snake and White Snake, The Legend of the New White Snake, Tamia Liu's White Snake, New Shi Tian Unit 2 Zhong Kui, Green Snake with Tears, Chen Meiqi's Fantasy World and I Have a Date with Zombies all have short stories. The role of snake essence is suitable for women, not for men.
I'm glad to answer this question. I feel that some ancient fables or fairy tales have been handed down slowly, forming a fixed impression. Like the white snake, besides, the snake represents softness, cold blood and dexterity, so it is more appropriate to describe the snake essence as a woman.
