Milk (Milk) - man or woman?

After saying "I'll be back", amid the gunshots and helpless shouts, looking at the opera house that touched you the night before, Milk died and never came back.

Like many great people, he died at the hands of a filthy villain.

All those who fight for the good of the people are great, and although the wording is a bit Marxist-Leninist, it is a truth.

"This is a gay-themed film", the film introduction said, if it weren't for the Oscars, if it wasn't for the title of Best Actor, I wouldn't watch it at all just by reading this introduction. However, after watching it, I really want to say to the editor who wrote the film introduction, if I were the editor, I would definitely not start the film introduction with "This is a gay-themed film".

I didn't know anything about Harvey Milk's life story before this film. As for those calls to fight for rights and freedom, that's not what I want to say, I just want to say - is it a man or a woman?

What is the difference between men and women?

Adam's apple? sound? Chest? reproductive organs? Think about it, in addition to those innate secondary sexual characteristics, how can we distinguish?

You said that you can accurately distinguish between men and women without the use of secondary sexual characteristics, so how do you distinguish between men and women?

When Milk was coquettish on the subway and flirted with Scott, who was just passing by, was he a man or a woman?

When Milk was teasing with Scott and covering his mouth with a chuckle, was he a man or a woman?

When Milk faced Scott's rejection of not dating people over 40, he said softly, "I'm still 39, it's 11:15pm", is he a man or a woman?

When Milk feeds Scott a nice bite of cake, is he a man or a woman?

Was Milk a man or a woman when he posted his life's first threatening letter on the refrigerator and comforted his lover?

Leading comrades, took to the streets, shouting: "Let's march through the streets of San Francisco and unleash our anger," Is Milk a man or a woman?

When Milk stood on Castro Avenue and shouted for the first time, "I'm Milk, I'm recruiting you now", was he a man or a woman?

Is Milk a man or a woman when he watches his new lover dance and flirt in front of him?

When Milk, knowing that his life was threatened, resolutely stepped up to the podium to give an impassioned speech, was he a man or a woman?

Are you unable to tell the difference? Even if you only have one sentence left to explain: "He is gay!"

Regardless of whether he is gay or not, who told us to distinguish between men and women outside of secondary sexual characteristics? What is a man and what is a woman? How to be a man, how to be a woman? Is it our own discernment? No, it is the accepted philosophy and norms of most people in this world. Should a man be masculine, strong, decisive, and fighting? Does a woman have to be feminine, weak, hesitant, dependent?

These ideological differences are nothing more than labels one after another, labels that people put on themselves. Apart from secondary sexual characteristics, being a "man" or a "woman" is completely a role-playing game.

Mulan can be a father to join the army, Wu Yi can be called the Iron Lady, more and more female entrepreneurs and leaders are standing at the forefront of society; more senior chefs are men, senior tailors are more men, senior More painters are men, and senior accountants are more men. The roles that should be women are played by men, and the roles that should be men are played by women. The transformation of professional roles seems to be acceptable. But when it comes to life, the result is quite the opposite. Men are scorned when they are weak, and women who are masculine are more praised, except that it is slightly difficult to find a partner. It is shameful for a man to depend on a woman, and it is right for a woman to depend on a man.

The distinction between men and women of a normal person has already made this society full of contradictions. The shackles of inherent ideas make men and women blindly follow. Looking back, even the transformation of a normal role as a man or a woman is difficult for most people to understand. How can they be tolerant of homosexuality? Homosexuality and heterosexuality, if the secondary sexual characteristics are removed, are they still different?

When we can correctly deal with the transformation of the roles of men and women, we can treat "people" relatively fairly and treat each "person" who is our own. When we can delete the word "homosexual" from the dictionary, the world will be able to It's really free.

Leslie Cheung played the "man" of a woman in appearance and a man in heart, which makes us unforgettable.

Dawn played a very moderate "man", let us forget.

Sean, Penn, played the role of a woman when it should be a "woman" and a man when it should be a "man", the best actor Oscar, well deserved.

ps: The subtitles that appeared at the beginning of the film source contained the following content: "Gays are also mortals", no matter whether we are gay, men or women, we are simply people, but play different roles.
