The performance of consumer culture,which formatted in the different periods,have different ways.In the 1960s,in the West,the consumer society gradually taking shape.In the consumer society,on the one hand,the businessmen has promoted commodities culturalization and aesthetication.Symbolic value of goods received increasing attention.On the other hand,Formed a mechanism for the operation of the market in accordance with the cultural production systems.Lost its cultural independence,Arts and cultural were forcibly incorporated into the commodities production system.The business principle becomes the leading role which controls the cultural product.Compared to the West,China's consumer culture with Western consumer culture in addition to the basic features,but also have with unbalance,mixing,separation characteristics.Along with consume doctrine consciousness of through public,contemporary consumer culture began as a "quasi-ideological," to assume the self-construction of contemporary society and the important function of cultural identity.The French feminism thinks the female's body decides the female's destiny.Caused women in the "silent" or "aphasia" situation long-term because of their language and their physical separation, and their desire to phase separation.Due to the strong patriarchal culture,the desire of women has been written by men,so that women become the symbol of male desire.The female body with a strong desire has been under the control of patriarchal society,deprived of their liberty writing powers.Therefore,Helene Cixous put up the deconstruction strategy-"Body Writing",with a body language to express the women's all experience of overall resistance to logocenterism.In the 1990s, Chen Ran and Lin Bai,two representative of a group of women writers,and boldly to women has long been accumulated in the body and suppress all taboos in the end of the discourse on the aesthetic.They fully tap the female body revolutionary and let the body writing become an important trend in female literary writing,extended to the beginning of the 21st century now,until it became a kind of fashion writing.Under the consumptive culture erosion,the body writing has exhausted any ideological resistance in female body and eventually became the most tempting symbol of consumption and consumption strategy in consumer society.In the context of contemporary Chinese consumption,writers station was changed from the traditional to interpretation,the female body writing commonly write the contents of fashion:urban life and body desire.The work dissemination has became from "Writers - media publishing - readers accept" to "media publishing- Writers- readers accept".The reader's interest,a fondness for,the reader's consumption becomes work value to carry out most basically strength.Faced with the impact and compression of consumer culture,the female body writing should abandon the desire to physical and creative principle at the core of physical aesthetics,absorbed the positive factors of Feminist,pay a attention to examine oneself and construction since the deconstruction,let the body get a respect.
