在“反手祈祷”风潮中,参与者纷纷把自己双手合十到背后作“祈祷”状的照片上传到社交媒体上。

继3亿人参与的反手摸肚脐挑战,以及锁骨硬币挑战之后,中国女性又开始用这项最新挑战来展示苗条身材。

The new physical challengeappeared on China's popular microblogging website Sina Weibolastweek and like the belly button challenge, the new 'reverse praying'posture is about howflexible the body is。

上周,这项新的身体挑战在中国的人气微博网站新浪微博上发起。类似反手摸肚脐挑战,新的“反手祈祷”姿势考验身体柔韧度。

反手祈祷要测的是手指离颈部的距离。手越举越高,表明身体柔韧度越高。

One user even went as far as to make a chart demonstrating the success of a 'reverse prayer'with a 'goddess' seeing the fingertips reach the top of the neck。

一个用户甚至用背影做了一张图表来阐释“反手祈祷”的成功程度,指尖能到达颈部的是“女神”。

The practice has been slammed by several users, some opposingsetting a standard thatmany would be physically unable to match,leaving them feeling inferior, and others objectingto the term'reverse praying'。

这一行为受到了一些用户的抨击,有人反对设定这样一个很多人根本无法达到的身体标准,这让她们觉得自己很差劲;还有人则反对使用“反手祈祷”一词。

One online user posted on China Weibo: 'It is certainly irreverent and insulting to those towhom religion is a key part of their life. Those posting these images should be ashamed ofthemselves.'

一名网友在新浪微博上写道:“对那些有着虔诚宗教信仰的人来说,这是一种不尊重甚至是羞辱。那些发照片的人应该感到羞愧。”
