They want you in competition with other men to look masculine instead of looking at the man behind the curtain. When the population is busy oppressing each other it tends to keep eyes off those in power.
Same reason why Republicans are constantly finger pointing at immigrants and trans people here. If you actually look for the people fucking things up you tend to pretty quickly find out it's the people selling you out to corporations, not the poor immigrant family with no power and money.
Being effeminate is often associated with weakness, recessive, yielding, etc.
Maybe as society they want their men to be strong, which usually comes from some sort of competition (hunting, fighting, earning, etc) rather than yield to other cultures? To me Bogies take makes much more sense. China wants to be dominant and promotes dominant traits.
