What are the contradictions between college students' love view and feudal thought at that time in the Republic of China?

During the Republic of China, with the introduction of new western ideas into China, women could also receive education. Influenced by the new ideological trend, many women in China began to oppose the traditional concept of marriage and love, and began to advocate the establishment of a new concept of society, love, marriage and family. They call for women's social openness, freedom of love and divorce. They criticized the decadent feudal concept of chastity and called on everyone to change this traditional thought.

Specifically. The first contradiction is that the freedom of love they advocate is contradictory to the arranged marriage in feudal society. In feudal times, women could not see their husbands before marriage, let alone have any feelings, which caused many tragedies. Maybe two people are not suitable, but women should submit to humiliation, so they advocate falling in love first, understanding each other's personality, and then getting married when it is suitable.

The second contradiction is that the freedom of divorce advocated by them contradicts the "three obedience and four virtues" in feudal society. In feudal society, once a woman got married, no matter how the other party treated her, she had to live with her husband for life. Women are very passive in marriage and have no choice but to submit.

The third contradiction is to encourage women's social freedom. As we all know, women in feudal society could not leave the house without leaving the second house. However, college students in the Republic of China encouraged social freedom and women to leave the house, which was very contradictory to the past.
