Despite government resistance and the promotion of traditional gender roles, Chinese feminists are making strides in stand-up comedy and film, using humor to challenge gender norms. For example, the recent success of women-led movies like Her Story, Yolo, and Hi, Mom reflects a cultural shift, with audiences embracing stories about women’s lives and struggles. Furthermore, stand-up comedians like Alex Wang and Yang Li are bringing attention to stigmatized women’s issues, such as menstruation and gender bias, despite government censorship and backlash.
