Ancient shackles that bound women

I remember when I was a child, I heard the elderly in the rural areas of Guizhou say: In ancient times, the preference for sons over women and discrimination against women caused the status of women to be relatively low. Today, I put it out and told future generations to remember that it is really not easy for women to have today.

1, after the woman marries her husband dies, she must be widowed. After returning to the west, the people of the clan will erect a chastity card! Reward it!

2, after the woman marries the husband dies, the woman wants to remarry, and the uncle is the first. The sister died, the brother-in-law remarried, first of all the sister-in-law. ballad:

The fork (red-billed finch) has a long tail,

Rich do not marry old harems.

The former mother killed the chicken and left the legs,

The queen mother kills the chicken and leaves the intestines.

Mountain fork red after the twist,

My brother died and I filled the house.

The meaning of this song: the brother is dead, there is a brother-in-law, the sister-in-law wants to remarry, first consider the uncle! If there is no uncle, you have to pay the in-laws' maintenance to remarry!

3, after the death of their parents, the funeral women can only be sent out of the village, not to the grave mountain. On the contrary, it will bring bad luck to the brother-in-law.

4, get married, after worshiping the heavens and the earth, entering the cave room must be before the boy goes, and the girl goes after the go. Meaning: long life before walking, short after.

5, into the cave the bride and groom are seated on the bed, and the man is going to try to pull the woman's clothes under his ass. Meaning: only after marriage can men manage women.

6, after marriage, sleeping men must sleep first after then, women sleep in front, women can not turn over from the man's body at any time. It means that women can easily get up before going to bed to do housework. Women flipping over from men can bring disadvantage to men!

7, women are not allowed to accompany guests to eat at the same table. When the guests finish eating, they eat the leftover soup in the fire room.

8, women can not go to the elders, larger than their own peers in front of the men to live. It must be said: so-and-so, borrow the past in front of you, the man nods, in order to pass. 9, eat with the family, women can not sit opposite the father-in-law. Eat vegetables first father-in-law, mother-in-law, men eat first, and then it is the daughter-in-law's turn.

9, wash clothes, women's clothes can not be washed in the same basin as men's. Washed, folded in basins and closets, women's clothes on the bottom, men's on the surface.

10, walking in the yard, meeting men, must stop, first the man goes, the woman goes. Men are in front, women are not allowed to overtake.

11, at home, there are men sitting in the yard to chat, women can not sit with men in a group, there is something, after the talk to hurry up and leave.

12, after the daughter gets married, it is forbidden to go back to the bed with the lover to the mother's house. It is not allowed to return to your mother's home for the Spring Festival. In special cases, I had to eat the New Year meal behind the gate with a broom with my legs.

13, ghost knot burning paper (bag), from processing to molding is forbidden for women to touch by hand. In this way, the load on the way will be increased!

14, children born to husband and wife can only follow the father's surname. The size of the children is in order. Boys and girls are rowed separately!

15, the ancient people really had a lot of restraints on women! Think about it today, can women really hold up half the sky?
