[Preface]
As the Spring Festival approaches, more and more young people who go out to work have begun to book train tickets back to their hometowns, and some of them have left their jobs early and have been staying at home for some time now.
They either eat or sleep every day, and the clothes they wear are always the same, as for what they are wearing, everyone should be able to guess if they look at the clothes on their bodies, yes, they are pajamas.
Although it is pajamas, it is better to say that it is home wear in terms of the frequency of use, and it is generally only when you go to bed at night that you will change into loose and comfortable pajamas.
It is true that when the pajamas first came out, everyone followed the "instructions" to use, but with the gradual opening of people's minds, the use of pajamas is no longer limited to the bedroom, especially in winter pajamas.
There are also many people who find it difficult to understand this phenomenon, for them, pajamas are pajamas, and outgoing clothes are outings, these two cannot be confused, not to mention that pajamas look ugly and dirty, no matter how you look at them, they are not suitable for wearing out.
So how did the "pajama craze" become popular? Why do they like to go out in pajamas? Does pajama culture have any adverse impact on society?
【The Rise of Pajama Culture】
Since the beginning of winter, people have begun to wrap up in thick down jackets and coats, and they are worried that they will catch a cold and fever because they have not taken good measures to keep warm.
When we live in the city, we all pay special attention to our dress, as long as we go out, we will definitely dress ourselves well, but in the countryside is different, we see not serious outing clothes, but various styles of pajamas and cotton clothes.
Sometimes when the villagers go out to work, they all wear pajamas to go out for convenience, and even go to work so casually, let alone when they are at home, they must be how comfortable they are.
Pajamas were originally just for people to have a more relaxed and comfortable environment when sleeping, and pajamas, as a personal privacy wear, are not suitable for appearing in front of outsiders.
However, as people's way of thinking has changed, they are more and more inclined to meet their own needs and feel happy, even if the pajamas can only exist at home, it does not prevent me from wearing them out of the house.
Of course, like some more developed first-tier cities, this phenomenon rarely occurs, basically only in rural areas, will generally appear to wear pajamas to go out, it can be said that pajamas have become the daily wear of rural people.
When we returned to the countryside, it was okay not to go out, but when we went out, there were old people and children walking around in pajamas, and there were many young people who came back from working abroad.
When they first came back, they were dressed up in a very fashionable way, but when we looked back a few days later, these young people also wore cotton pajamas and transformed into authentic "village girls" and "country boys".
This phenomenon may be a bit unacceptable for some people who like to be conformist, they may understand that you wear a little more casually when you go out, as long as you go out in clothes, but if you want to go out in pajamas, you really can only say that you don't want to understand and don't want to accept.
We have also asked the old and young people who go out in their pajamas why they like to go out in their pajamas, and don't they feel embarrassed?
【Reasons why I like to go out in pajamas】
The answer is actually very simple, the reason why they choose to wear pajamas to go out, first of all, is because cotton pajamas are relatively warm, although they don't look good, but the materials are really real, even if it is cold in winter, as long as you wear this set of pajamas, you can effectively resist the cold.
The phenomenon of wearing pajamas is not found in rural areas across the country, mainly concentrated at the junction of the north and south, and those rural areas where there is no floor heating indoors, and even ordinary air conditioners are not installed, heating has become their biggest problem when winter comes.
The cotton pajamas have become their best tool to keep warm, thick pajamas and comfortable and loose fit, not only can you add clothes to it at will to enhance the warmth effect, but even the scope of application has gradually expanded, even if you need to go out, you don't have to take off the pajamas on your body.
It is also because the design version is relatively large, people will not feel constrained when carrying out activities, people have a higher and higher impression of pajamas, so that they wear pajamas more and more often, whether it is going out to the market or chatting on the street, pajamas are their best only choice.
Especially when it rains or snows, going out wrapped in thick pajamas makes people feel a kind of warmth at home, because only at home, can they be themselves as they like, and when they go out, they can only put away their own hearts and work hard to move bricks.
Secondly, they like to wear pajamas because its price is very cheap, if compared with those down jackets and coats, it can be said that it is a heaven and an earth in terms of price.
A down jacket costs hundreds or thousands of yuan, and the same is true for wool coats, although the price of ordinary cotton clothes is not expensive, but there is only one piece, how can there be a complete set of pajamas cheap?
We only buy a complete set of pajamas for dozens or hundreds, and the most expensive ones in the countryside are only two or three hundred, and pajamas in this price range are the most economical choice for farmers who rely on farming for income.
And even if the pajamas are dirty, or not a small hole, you can continue to wear them, as long as they do not affect their warmth and integrity, as long as they can be worn, you don't need to buy another set.
In such a situation, the durability of pajamas has become one of the important factors for villagers to choose it, and of course, the convenience of pajamas cleaning is also one of the reasons why pajamas can dominate the rural market.
Farmers sometimes have to go out to do farm work, and it is not suitable to wear ordinary outdoor clothes, which are not only difficult to wash if they are dirty, but also damage their clothes, but if they go out in pajamas, there is no such problem.
Although the pajamas are thick, because the price is relatively cheap, people basically don't feel distressed when they wear them to do farm work, after all, with their own economic situation, they can still afford to buy one or two sets.
What's more, as long as the villagers work, there is no time to rest, and sometimes the clothes are piled up for several days, and they can't find time to wash them, so most people will prepare a washing machine at home in case of emergency.
However, because the cleaning ability of the washing machine is weak, the generally dirty clothes are cleaned by themselves, but only when they are not busy, they can do so.
But if the villagers wear pajamas to go out to do farm work, there is no such trouble, the pajamas are dirty, the dirty ones are not bad, you can continue to wear them tomorrow, if the dirty ones can't stand it, just throw them into the washing machine, let it be cleaned, which saves time and effort.
Even if we wash two or three times a week, the warmth of pajamas still does not change, compared to other winter warm clothes, pajamas can be said to be the most ideal warm artifact.
[How to look at the phenomenon of pajama ruralization]
It is true that pajamas are very warm, but people from all walks of life have different opinions and attitudes on whether pajamas can go out to see people, and some people believe that pajamas as a kind of intimate clothing are usually only suitable for wearing at home, if you want to go out, you still want to change a set of suitable clothes.
For the "fastidious people" who live in the city, a large number of people have this idea, pajamas cannot be used as outdoor clothes, but the "honest people" living in the countryside are another view.
They think that wearing pajamas is a very normal thing in rural areas, and there are a few people in almost every family who will go out in pajamas, and pajamas refer to more specifically home clothes, which can not only be worn when sleeping.
For those villagers who have hardly been out of the house, they don't know why people outside will always point fingers at them in pajamas, they only know that they can live well in this cold winter when they wear this set of pajamas, pajamas are not just an ordinary home clothes, but have become a part of people's daily life.
Of course, it is not that pajamas can replace outdoor clothes, but for those economically backward rural areas, pajamas are their best tool to keep warm in winter, whether indoor or outdoor, as long as they wear pajamas, they will not feel cold.
If you look at it from a rigorous point of view, when you go out to meet friends in the city, wearing pajamas will naturally damage your image, and most of the pajamas are relatively bright in color and relatively single in style, which does not seem very respectful compared with regular outing clothes.
Especially walking around in public in pajamas, so that others feel that this person is a little too unconcerned about personal image, and he doesn't know how to clean himself up when he goes out.
However, we should not laugh at others because they are unkempt, which is impolite and impolite, because what others wear is someone else's business, and we are not qualified to discuss it.
Of course, we also need to be clear that as a member of society, we should abide by social norms and etiquette before doing anything, and try to avoid bringing bad atmosphere to society.
Although pajamas are very comfortable and warm, they have a certain scope and region, and when we live in some big cities with complex interpersonal relationships, it is best not to wear pajamas to go out.
However, because everyone has their own way of life and social values, we can't force others to do something, or not to do something, in terms of dressing, some people like to dress up a little more exquisitely, and some people want to dress freely and comfortably.
These are their own personal choices, and when we discuss this phenomenon, we should first understand some cultural Xi and lifestyles between different regions to avoid making wrong judgments.
【Conclusion】
In general, going out in pajamas is not an "unsightly" thing, but because everyone's concepts and ways of thinking are different, the understanding and attitude towards this phenomenon are also different, but this is the meaning of social existence.
