　　历史景点以及历史事件重现活动正逐渐受到这些有意重拾本国历史的女性追捧。

　　The interest may be a backlash to the emergence of a group called “herbivorous men” who are gentle, foppish and unaggressive, prompting some young women to seek out at least the notion of the historical equivalent of the traditional male action hero.

　　这种兴趣转移可能是受日本国内新近出现的“草食男”群族影响而产生的。“草食男”们温顺、优雅，无任何攻击性，使得一些年轻女性想要在历史中寻求传统男性的典型形象。
