Traditional dragon boats are not allowed to be touched by women.

It is not a "bad habit" not to let women touch the dragon boat, but to combine the real life and culture of Cantonese people. In the five elements, male is yang, female is yin, and yin and yang are a pair, but there is a relationship between them.

The dragon boat corresponds to the phoenix boat, the dragon boat is yang, and the wind boat is yin, because dragon boat racing is also regarded as a struggle between yang and things.

In other words, this is a power contest between men, so women can't be taken at this time, so it's normal not to allow women to go on the dragon boat, which is the same reason that women can't be taken in ancient wars.

Guangdong people's dragon boat races are all family-based. Women appear on a family's dragon boat, which shows that there are not enough men in this family or all the men are dead. Otherwise, how can women take turns to play?

The competition based on dragon boat racing has this potential significance, so people don't let women get on the dragon boat, or even let women touch it, just to let their families prove that their men are not dead and they still have the strength to fight again.

Therefore, they are very taboo about having a woman on their dragon boat or being touched by a woman, because to some extent, they think that being touched by a woman means that the man in their family is dying, which gives them a very unlucky feeling.

As we all know, Cantonese people usually like to have a good start in everything, so when they do something slightly important, they should draw a lottery or get lucky in the hope that everything will go well, so at this time they are very shy about some unlucky words or things.

Because of this, the dragon boat boarded by women will definitely be abandoned, because the dragon boat has been marked with symbols that sacrifice and competition are impossible for men, which does not bode well for a family.

People just don't let women go on traditional dragon boats. There's nothing wrong with that. In fact, women in many places can board the dragon boat. Even in Guangdong, there are women's dragon boat teams, and the organizers also say that women are not allowed to board the traditional dragon boat.

So don't continue to speculate on this problem. The traditional dragon boat in Foshan is a competition between men of one family and men of another family, bearing a strong local cultural tradition.

This kind of culture is only in a relatively narrow circle and will not have a negative impact on society. On the contrary, this kind of culture will make the male characteristics of that place more obvious, which is harmless to society.

Men should shoulder the burden of defending the country and not let women rush ahead. If many women think that it is wrong for men not to let themselves take the lead, then forget that I said anything. Now women's rights must fight for everything. If we have to fight for this, I can only say that the safety of our men will be left to the ladies in the future.
