女神
释义 DEFINITION
在中文互联网语境中，'女神'主要有三层含义：
- 原始宗教意义：指女性神祇，如希腊神话中的雅典娜
- 完美女性象征：形容外貌出众、气质优雅的理想化女性形象
- 网络亚文化定义：特指让男性产生崇拜感的女性，常见于宅男文化（2020年B站调研显示83%的使用场景集中于此）
当前最常用的是第三种含义，常带有'可望不可及'的仰慕意味，但需注意语境差异——在女性社交圈中也用于闺蜜间的互称表达欣赏。
词源故事 ETYMOLOGY
2012年是中国'女神'词义转折的关键年份。当时湖南卫视《我是歌手》节目让邓紫棋爆红，弹幕中'紫棋女神'的刷屏标志着该词从传统媒体向网络亚文化迁移。
真正引爆现象的是2014年的'奶茶妹妹'章泽天。当她在哥伦比亚大学留学期间与刘强东的恋情曝光后，虎扑社区出现经典热帖《我的女神被土豪摘走了》，获得23万讨论量。这确立了'女神'作为直男文化符号的三大要素：清纯形象（奶茶）、阶层差距（学生vs富豪）、求而不得的叙事。
随后词义继续泛化：
- 2016年Papi酱短视频以'女神经'自嘲，反向助推'女神'正统地位
- 2018年IG夺冠时，电竞解说记得在直播中大喊'Rita是我女神'，拓展到电竞领域
- 2021年抖音#女神变装挑战 达到18亿播放量，女性开始主动使用该标签
例句1（仰慕）：'新来的数据分析师简直是AI女神，她做的可视化图表让我看跪了。'
例句2（调侃）：'别叫我女神，昨天没洗头现在是个女鬼。'
DEFINITION
The term nǚshén (goddess) has evolved into a three-layer meaning in Chinese cyber culture:
- Mythological context: Literal female deities like Aphrodite
- Social compliment: A hyperbolic praise for women with exceptional beauty/talent (similar to 'bombshell' but more respectful)
- Otaku culture: Specifically refers to unattainable female idols in anime/gaming communities, carrying a mix of admiration and self-deprecating humor (e.g. 'My goddess replied to my DM!' on Reddit-like forums)
Cultural note: Unlike Western 'queen' emphasizing empowerment, Chinese 'goddess' focuses more on aesthetic perfection and perceived distance.
ETYMOLOGY
The evolution of nǚshén mirrors China's internet culture shifts. The term gained modern traction during 2012's I Am a Singer reality show, where fans spammed 'G.E.M goddess' for Hong Kong diva Gloria Tang - marking its migration from literary use to pop culture.
The 2014 'Milk Tea Sister' incident became pivotal. When tech tycoon Richard Liu married Columbia student Zhang Zetian (known for a viral milk tea photo), a now-legendary post My Goddess Was Taken by a Billionaire on Tigerhoop basketball forum sparked 230k+ discussions. This cemented the term's association with unrequited admiration in male-dominated online spaces.
Recent developments show semantic expansion:
- 2016: Influencer Papi Jiang's 'goddess vs crazy woman' parody videos drove self-deprecating usage
- 2018: Esports caster Remember's live outburst 'Rita is my goddess' during IG's world championship brought it into gaming
- 2021: Douyin's #GoddessTransformationChallenge hit 1.8B views as women reclaimed the label
Example 1: 'Our new data scientist is an AI goddess - her visualizations blow my mind!'
Example 2: 'Don't call me goddess, I forgot dry shampoo today!'
