Xiong Sidong, president of Suzhou University of the National People's Congress, said that at present, many boys are timid, dependent, quiet and afraid of moving, timid and independent, lacking adventure, courage and exploration spirit, and lack of self-confidence is equal to the temperament characteristics of traditional male chauvinism, which has attracted the attention of society and families. Xiong Sidong believes that students' gender differences should be fully considered, and students' personality quality should be improved to make boys more like boys and girls more like girls.

He also said that attention should be paid to targeted curriculum. According to students' gender characteristics, we should set up targeted courses and formulate more targeted teaching plans and strategies. Physical education class, for example, should offer differentiated courses for different genders, guide more boys to participate in highly antagonistic sports such as football, basketball and rugby fencing, and guide girls to participate in rhythmic gymnastics, rope skipping, yoga and other sports that help to enhance flexibility.
So, should we pay attention to gender difference education? Netizens are talking about it. In this regard, Zhu Yongxin, member of the Standing Committee of Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and Deputy Secretary-General, said in an interview that due to the uncoordinated proportion of primary and secondary school teachers, the proportion of male teachers is declining, which actually has a great impact on children. Students' masculinity will be affected to some extent.
He also said that masculinity has masculine beauty, femininity has feminine beauty, and gender itself is equal, but if they are all feminine, it is definitely not conducive to people's growth. Moreover, sexualization is not only physical sexualization, but also psychological sexualization. Although there are strong women in society, solving social problems requires a certain balance between masculinity and femininity, which is the law of natural and social development. However, if we deviate from this law and feminize all people in society, society will lack a real vitality and harmonious power. Moreover, some courses should be set up, some for boys, some for girls and some for boys and girls. Help children better face self-identity and better gender awareness.
The super-sweet combination of candy that exploded on the Internet recently instilled too many feminine thoughts into boys, which made me feel that gender difference education is imminent. Therefore, I think we should attach importance to gender difference education and put it on the agenda as soon as possible.
