| The three types of youth have their own fans. "Pu" fans enjoy a low profile, ordinary life; "wen" fans prefer a more romantic outlook, while "er" fans love to be frank, unique or idiotic, as the mood takes them. |
三種青年都有各自的擁躉者。普通青年是正常、低調的代名詞，文藝青年偏向浪漫情懷，而二逼青年往往直白坦蕩、特立獨行，或者說是喜歡“犯二”。 |
| The new classification has certainly caught the imagination of Internet users. A netizen called "Tuzichou" from Tianjin wrote: "Since pu-wen-er was invented, I couldn't help classifying everything I can see into three types." |
這種新的分類當然激發了網友們的奇思妙想。天津網友“兔子抽”感慨道：“自從有了這個活動，看什么都自動分類的有木有！” |
| However, an article in the China Youth Daily pointed out that it's not easy to place individuals into one, fixed group. For instance, a person might be ordinary when facing strangers, outgoing among close friends and sentimental when alone. |
不過，《中國青年報》的一篇文章指出，將一個人歸類到某個特定的群體是很難做到的。比方說，一個人面對陌生人就可能是個普通青年，在親密的朋友面前會有點肆無忌憚，而一個人獨處時又會多愁善感。 |
| "Everyone has a moment of pu, wen or er respectively, and everyone could have pu-wen-er characteristics at the same time," wrote a netizen named "Chunfeng chunyu youshihao." |
“每個人都有普文二的瞬間，每個人都是普文二三青一體。”網友“春風春雨有時好”如是說。 |
| "The three types reflect three aspects of a person," said Hou Ruihe, a psychologist and counselor at Renmin University of China. "The ordinary type adheres to common social principles, the idiotic type attempts to fight against conventions and pressures, while the artistic type seeks a balance between his or her social role and sense of individuality." |
“三種青年就好像三個自我。”中國人民大學心理健康專職咨詢師侯瑞鶴老師認為，“普通青年更多地表現屈從于大眾規則的社會自我，二逼青年則在壓力之下采取一種過度補償的方式反抗規則，直白天真，沒心沒肺。文藝青年在社會自我和個人自我之間求得一種平衡，但多少有點回避壓力的意味。” |
| According to Xiao Beiying, an associate professor at Huaqiao University, pu-wen-er fans tend to behave frivolously and the phenomenon might lead to the misunderstanding of Internet culture. |
華僑大學副教授肖北嬰表示，熱衷給普文二青年分類的這些人往往輕浮，可能引發網絡文化的誤讀誤導。 |

However, Li Zhen, a professor at Zhejiang Normal University, disagreed with that assertion, commenting that the creation and spreading of pu-wen-er is an important way for young people to deal with pressure and stresses and improve social focus.

不過，浙江師范大學李震教授持有不同意見。他認為，“普文二”青年這個名詞的出現和傳播是青年緩解壓力和力圖獲得社會聚焦的重要手段。
