These female writers were neither fragile self-admirer nor painful idealist, but described female's living status, surviving dilemma and desperately struggling in the sex consciousness in the duration of resist and overturn male rights. A kind of so-called "ersonal" and "rivate"female writing came forward to the literature field dignifiedly. They showed broadly the female experience and psychology thoroughly, describing the surviving and thriving experience. to an unprecedented extent.
