I think the American culture and the Japanese culture influence Taiwan most deeply
Following are the women and men on TV in Taiwan:
The women (beauty): have well figures (slender bodies, good breasts and hips), beautiful hairs (are usually long hairs), good faces and skins (most Taiwanese think white skin is more beautiful than black). And they’re young. They’re dressed fashion clothes which is famous brand, or some clothes that can highlight the woman’s figure (mini-skirts, mini-pants….)
The men (handsome men): have good figures (strong, muscular), tall, good faces and skins. They’re dressed fashion clothes. Their ages and aren't so important if they looks good.
But, Japanese stars are different from American stars especially the male stars, they’re thin and not tall, beautiful, cute, we call that is the flower like handsome boy; and the female stars are skinny and look cute.
I think the stereotyping of sexual on TV is still being Taiwan but not so obvious, we accept many kinds of people, like the cute flower like boy or the muscular man, women wear mini-skirts, they also can wear loose jeans, they wear neuter clothes, I think it’s very fun, and it’s better than the past.

well, I don't think that the stereotyping of sexual on TV in Taiwan isn't so obvious. If it is, why all the society is effected by those foreign countries so deep.
i think it is. you don't see as many taiwanese female stars doing things that they would do in america. taiwan is still a very conservative place. that's why so many people were shocked by the edison chen scandal. everyone wants to appear clean cut. it's like anything they do with a little attidude will be bad for their image.
