We also have a dialect of "Men have no ugly faces". As far as I know, men are superior to women in the old society seems to be a local proverb inherited from the feudal system. The sentence "Men have no ugly faces" is not about men's looks, but about being born as a man, and one should bear the male role of one field with one hand. Tian Li deserves to be called that everything a man does in this range is not ugly, which is probably what it means.

In modern society, men and women are equal. Women can read and write, and they can also carry their own fields. Therefore, the sentence "Men don't have ugly faces" is often taken out by the older generation to teach those boys who feel inferior and don't work hard because of their lack of conditions, so this sentence is still alive. I forgot to mention that my family is from Changsha, Hunan.
