Qin Shi Huang was the first person to protect the rights and interests of women in China
Many people think that in ancient China, there was no right for women
I always feel that ancient society is the existence of all evils, an incomparably dark world
-----------------
For example, women cannot divorce, even if they want to divorce, they cannot take the initiative. Women can also have property rights
If your husband didn't pay for groceries today, and you stole it to buy groceries, this is [theft]
In short, there is nothing about women's rights, the dark extreme?
This must not be partially covered, for thousands of years in our ancient society
In fact, women's rights and interests have always existed in part in the form of laws
The first person to fight for the rights and interests of women in our country was Qin Shi Huang.
He established the first unified empire after the Zhou Dynasty. It has always been known all over the world for its strict law
It was he who for the first time enacted women's rights and interests in the form of a law.
[Marriages must be registered with the government, and marriages registered with the government are protected by law]
【Husband and wife should be loyal to each other】
[The dissolution of marriage must also be registered and approved by the government]
【The dowry of the wife belongs to the wife herself】
And so on, these legal provisions that protect women's rights and interests are formal national laws
All the people of the empire must obey
It was also something that the Qin Empire had not had for more than two thousand years
It also predates the Western Law on the Protection of Women's Rights and Interests by thousands of years!
This is also one of the embodiments of Qin Shi Huang's historical merits
These legal provisions on the protection of women's rights and interests were used until the Tang and Song dynasties.
There are still many additions and subtractions in the middle, and the overall improvement is continuous, and it can also be well implemented.
But after the society entered the late Ming and early Qing dynasties,
Society enters an environment and climate in which cultural civilizations have regressed tremendously
Because of those in power, their culture is relatively very backward. There are legal provisions to protect women's rights.
There is only an empty line of text left, and it is not effectively executed.
Make it one of the darkest dynasties for women
It was not until the early days of the Republic of China that it returned to the peak of women's rights and interests in the Tang and Song dynasties, and after that, it received greater development.
