Though the weather in Nanjing is very cold these days, the emergence of "neutrally dressed" men and women surely has brought some warmth to the city.

This winter, many women in Nanjing have stowed away their beautiful skirts and colorful scarves in their wardrobes, and put on suits instead. They want to show their faith in the equality of men and women by these clothes. In fact, they don't only dress like men, but also have proved that they are no inferior to men in every aspect.

Many men in Nanjing put on neutral-style clothes, too. To them, being "neutral" is of course different from being "sissy". They are very gentlemen-like and polite. While they are deft-handed when doing housework, they are no less manly when going in for sports. Their confidence comes from their excellence.

The pursuit for "neutrality" actually reflects the new tide of equality between the two sexes, which is an advancement of the society.
