As children grow up, they will eventually go out into society and take charge of themselves. It is inevitable that the elders in the family will also have more or less advice.
The author found an interesting thing: that is, "when you are about to step into society, what will the elders in the family focus on warning you"?
Among them, the frequency of this "three don't touch" is still very high, next, let's take a look at what the "three don't touch" is.
1. A man's head
"Don't touch it three times when you go out, and there are many disasters when you touch it" The first thing that can't be touched is the man's head.
From ancient times to the present, from the original strict hierarchy system, to the current emphasis on equality for all. It has been a long time.
The emperor and his courtiers, officials and subordinates, landlords and slaves, these are the relationships between superiors and subordinates.
Superiors can play with people's heads at will. But the subordinate cannot be disobedient and transgressive.
When you see your superiors, you can only grovel, bow your head, and greet carefully.
A man's head symbolizes a man's dignity, and in that era of inequality, it was difficult for most people to live, let alone any dignity.
However, with the development of the times, human rights have gradually become equal, and this matter has begun to be taken seriously.
Don't touch a man's head when you go out, even if the relationship is very good, this is a matter of dignity, especially if men are good-looking.
Moreover, touching other people's heads is also a very impolite thing, and some people with bad tempers may also have disputes and even hands, causing unnecessary disputes.
But there is a situation where being touched on the head is also a manifestation of happiness, that is, the junior is touched by the elders in the family, which is regarded as the elders' spoiling of the younger generations.
Second, the waist of a woman
The second thing that can not be touched is the waist of a woman, China has been a country of etiquette since ancient times, everything is etiquette and etiquette, and the behavior must be decent.
Especially in terms of the relationship between men and women, the ancestors set an example very early.
When watching TV, we occasionally see in the play that because of his disobedience to women's morals, he secretly communicated with a man and sentenced him to "dip in a pig cage" or "hang a stone into the sea".
That's because the ancient women of good families attached great importance to chastity and paid attention to the difference between men and women.
Although society is becoming more and more open, a woman's waist is still not allowed to be touched at will, whether it is a single woman, a partner or even a married woman, this will be considered impolite.
Even rising to sexual harassment, the law now has various provisions in relevant areas to protect women's rights and interests.
If it is a married woman, it is considered a provocation, which is intolerable to any man.
In severe cases, physical altercations may even break out, resulting in injury or death. So be sure to pay attention when you're out and about.
3. Tools for "eating".
The third thing that can't be touched is other people's tools, and for some practitioners, the tools are the things that the person eats, and they can't be touched or even played with at will.
For example, this barber's scissors, sometimes we go to the barber shop and see the barber's scissors in the barber's hand flying up and down to finish a haircut.
It's so cool that some people just want to take a look at the scissors and see if there is a "hidden mystery".
If the barber sees you moving his scissors, you can observe it, and he must have changed his face immediately.
It is very rude to use other people's belongings without the permission of the owner, and it will seriously annoy the owner.
The barber is also afraid that you will use other people's tools to cut at will, which will affect the usability of the tools, and you will have to re-polish them and delay your efforts.
Moreover, the barber's scissors have been repeatedly polished to make them very sharp, and they can cut their hair with ease, after all, "if you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools".
Once you play with it rashly, in case you hurt yourself or others, this is also inseparable from the barber.
There is also the chef's knife, in fact, the principle is the same, you can't touch and play at will.
For these "three don't touch", there must be a meaning of existence, especially when you go out, you must learn to protect yourself, don't stir up trouble at will, and be a humble person who knows how to be polite and virtuous.
In addition to these, there is no need to pick up the metal on the side of the road, and if you touch the exposed items, you may even have a risk of amputation.
In 1996, a worker picked up a key chain, but he didn't know that it was a contaminated item, and he was injured by nuclear radiation for 23 years, and finally died in 2019 due to his deteriorating condition.
Of course, the author has only listed some of them, but what else do you know that you can't touch when you go out?
