<< review queue entry 49050 - submitted by 'miles' >> The current definition is too vague. It must mean to treat women as deserving preferred treatment or protection, or to treat a particular woman affectionately. See http://www.zdic.net/c/c/29/63176.htm http://jukuu.com/search.php?q=%E6%80%9C%E9%A6%99%E6%83%9C%E7%8E%89 -------------------------------------------------------------------- Editor: I agree that the current definition needs to be sharpened, but I don't think it's quite right to say that it indicates "having a soft spot" (a sentimental fondness) for a particular woman. M ~ 香、玉，比喻青春美麗的女子。憐香惜玉比喻愛憐、善待女性。... 亦作「惜香憐玉」、「惜玉憐香」。 Some Web examples: - 你们的身材会让有些男人顿生怜香惜玉之情，他们也许会保护你终生。 - 女主角李心潔現場抱怨連連，稱導演老公彭順和戲裡的老公劉青雲，毫不憐香惜玉，讓她很郁悶。 - 不是所有的男人都懂得怜香惜玉所以我们必须得强大起来 - 让男人怜香惜玉的女人: 第一种，长得优雅动人却又安静忧郁的女人。这种女人就有点像林黛玉，但又比林黛玉要强一点。 第二种，受了伤还假装坚强的女人。 第三种，神秘莫测却又脆弱的女人。 第四种，对别人很好而对自己很残酷的女人。 第五种，表面开心快乐而内心孤独寂寞的女人。 |
