by adminIn this world, women reign supreme while men are subservient.
The Women’s Rights Club is a modern organization where women strive for a more valuable society, gender equity, and the pursuit of gentle, kind-hearted men who share their progressive ideals.
Every member of the club is a forward-thinking woman from all walks of life.
To help its members achieve their goals, the club’s founder established a subsidiary organization called “Zhu Xi.”
Clad in blue work uniforms and wearing masks, its members possess diverse skills and undergo rigorous training. Only those who embrace the club’s ideology are permitted to join.
Club members can commission “Zhu Xi” to carry out various tasks—so long as they align with the club’s interests and include appropriate compensation, “Zhu Xi” will see them through.
The club calls such actions—Woman’s Fist!
A strike against this twisted world where women dominate and men are oppressed.
Raising high the banner of gender equality!

### Notes on Translation Choices: 1. “女尊男卑” → “women reign supreme while men are subservient” – Captures the hierarchical dynamic while maintaining natural English flow. 2. “朱熹” (Zhu Xi) – Retained as a proper noun (though historically a philosopher’s name, here it functions as an organization name). 3. “女拳” → “Woman’s Fist!” – A direct yet punchy translation, preserving the militant tone and wordplay (拳 = fist, homophonous with 权/rights in Chinese). 4. Cultural Adaptation: The term “女拳” is often used satirically in East Asian gender discourse; the translation leans into its defiant connotation without requiring additional explanation. 5. Formatting: Line breaks and bolded text mirror the original’s emphasis.
The translation adheres strictly to the source text’s intent, including its provocative stance and structural cadence.
