Comment by Oui_wissal on Symbiotic Relationship Between the Sun and the Moon - Chapter 1

@Oui_wissal that's high key true. I hate how all civilizations have at least once portrayed being a woman as negative

@Oui_wissal as a Chinese person myself, it's actually kinda interesting cause I've never heard of ying energy being seen as negative. (Maybe it's the difference between some parts of Chinese culture? .)   Always heard that it's gotta be balanced. There's actually a joke in Chinese gay culture that you can feel the ying energy radiating off of the homos. What you guys are saying is true though. I'm glad things have changed now, especially in how Chinese people view women.

@Love 8  as a person who is not Chinese but reads a lot of Chinese work I've always heard that one of them is negative and the other one is positive and that's why they have to be balanced

You are right I'm planning to come study in China in the future and as a feminist I'm really upset about how the World Views women but I can say that China is definitely one of the countries that I've seen respect women and see them as equal the most

@Oui_wissal well, I can tell you that Chinese culture is very vast. I did see/read  some articles about the positivity/negativity thing, but It may not be the main focus. I think something got lost in translation.(Maybe only in the cultures I've personally experienced? But I'll just tell you the general thing) 

Ying refers to something passive, and yang refers to something that is active. These are moreso linked to traits, and are seen as both bad or good if there is too much. 
 I think painting something as strictly negative gives a bad connotationand taichi/wuji is actually also quite prevalent in it's understanding. One is "light" the other is "dark" essentially heat and coldness. What's more important is actually not to paint either one as bad, but to focus on the fact that too much of both isn't good for you.

@Oui_wissal that's actually really great. I'm so glad you want to go and study in china in the future. TT. I wish you goodluck!

@Love 8 and actual Chinese people wouldn't ever see ying energy as negative, (for clarification.) and it is actually bad to reject ying energy. (Sorry for the info bomb. I got excited that someone is interested in Chinese culture. I'm very happy about that.

@Love 8  I'm really interested in grateful thank you for telling me this
