There are TWO different questions that I have to answer for this task:
—How have constructions of Chinese Masculinity changed in recent times and what traits make up the ideal Chinese male today? (Feel free to give examples from popular culture). Include in your discussion insights from If you are the One (Louie talks about it in the PDF reading that I attached called “Chinese_Masculinities…”).
—What do the two short pieces on Indonesia tell us about how the ideal woman is constructed in Indonesia and what the consequences are for those who fall short of the
ideal?

Please read the three readings (two in the links that I gave above and one attached) and make reference to the readings! I have also attached the marking rubric and a sample journal so you would know what format that this task is in.
