What traditional cultures have deteriorated? Are the dross produced in modern times regarded as traditional culture by the public?

Bridal gift. In fact, the bride price is not only produced now, but has existed since ancient times. But now the meaning of the "newly created" bride price is different from the previous bride price.

In the traditional sense, the bride price money refers to the money spent by the man on buying the wedding room, furniture, daily necessities and various wedding ceremonies after marriage. Bridal price is an ancient marriage custom in China, which is paid by the man to the woman. The money can be used to buy furniture, home appliances, the bride's clothes, and also to pay for the bride's banquet.

In my parents' generation, there was not much bride price, that is, the money for the banquet was borne by the man and then some clothes were made for her. Then the woman also has a dowry.

Significantly, the woman's family is a little more difficult, and she may ask the man for a little more bride price, but not too much. After all, the woman is also proud, and she doesn't want others to say that she sells her daughter or something.

It's completely different now. Some people gather in Germany, and the daughter wants a high bride price, which shows that her husband's family attaches importance to it. The question is, what does a high bride price mean? Daughter is not a commodity that can be sold by weight. How much the man pays does not necessarily mean that he values the woman, and there may be no other way.

Some people are going to make a fortune with the bride price, and some people only have daughters at home, and they have suffered all their lives, just waiting to exchange their daughters for the bride price to enjoy their old age. There are many boys in other families, and then they want to marry their daughters in exchange for a bride price and marry their sons with their daughters' bride price.

This kind of bride price for sons used to exist, but now it is not so blatant and shameless, and some people still feel particularly honored. In the past, it was difficult for some families to have two families, and then maybe my daughter married to your family and your daughter married to mine, just like changing relatives.

In the past, changing relatives was mostly a matter for the poor and also a matter for the poor. Most people don't want the bride price so much, let alone deduct it for their daughters. Many people still think that this is a tradition, and the traditional bride price is not defined in this way.
