I want to know something about Japanese sex culture? Who has been to Japan?

Japan's unique geographical conditions and long history have given birth to a unique Japanese culture. Cherry blossoms, kimonos, haiku and samurai, sake and Shintoism constitute two aspects of traditional Japan-chrysanthemum and sword. Japan has a famous "three paths", namely, Japanese folk tea ceremony, flower path and book path.

Tea ceremony, also known as tea soup (tea tasting), has been loved by the upper class as an aesthetic ceremony since ancient times. Nowadays, tea ceremony is widely accepted by the general public to train concentration or cultivate manners. Many schools in Japan teach the techniques of various schools of tea ceremony, and many hotels also have tea rooms, where you can easily enjoy the performances of tea ceremony.

The flower path was born as a technology to replicate the flowers in the wild in the teahouse. Because of the different rules and methods of exhibition, pattern science can be divided into more than 20 schools, and there are also many schools in Japan that teach various schools of pattern science techniques. In addition, in hotels, department stores, public facilities halls and other places, you can enjoy the beautifully decorated art of flower arrangement.

Sumo originated from the religious ceremony of Japanese Shintoism. People hold competitions for the god of harvest in temples, hoping to bring a good harvest. In Nara and heian period, sumo was a court sport, but in Kamakura and the Warring States period, sumo became a part of samurai training. Professional sumo began in the18th century, which is very similar to the present sumo competition. Shinto ceremony emphasizes sumo, and the purpose of stamping before the game is to drive away the evil spirits in the field and also to relax the muscles. Salt should be sprinkled on the ruins to achieve the purpose of purification, because Shinto believes that salt can drive away ghosts. Sumo is played on the table. The whole table is square, with a circle in the middle and a diameter of 4.55 meters. In the competition, two lux stood almost naked on the stage with their hair in a bun and pocket belts. During the game, Lux must not touch the surface of the table or cross the circle except the sole of the foot. You can decide the game in a minute or two or even a few seconds. Sumo referee * * * consists of six people. The referee is the "secretary" with a folding fan, and the other five people are in the front row, east, west and referee's seat respectively. The highest rank of Hercules is "Yokozuna". Here are the Grand View, Guan Wei, Summary and Neck Front. These four grades are called "in-screen" and belong to the upper layer of soil. Again, there are twelve scenes, in addition to which there are three subordinate items and three sequences. The bottom layer is called preface. An ordinary lux needs a lot of efforts to get a higher level; It is impossible to get the lowest score without hard work.

Kimono is the name of traditional Japanese national costume. It is also called "persistence" in Japan. Kimono is modeled after China's Sui and Tang dynasties clothing styles and Wu clothing, so it is called "Wu clothing" and "Tang clothing" in Japan. Kimono is what westerners call Wu Fu, and now the Japanese have accepted it, but many shops selling kimonos still say "Wu Fu". In the 8th and 9th centuries, Tang Feng was once popular in Japan. Although it changed later and formed a unique Japanese style, it still contains some characteristics of ancient Chinese clothing. The different styles and colors of women's kimonos are the signs that distinguish age and marriage. For example, unmarried girls wear tight sleeves and married women wear wide sleeves; Comb "Teru Shimada" hairstyle (one of Japanese hairstyles, bowl-shaped). The girl is wearing a red collar shirt and a bun, and the housewife is wearing a plain shirt. Kimono doesn't need buttons, just a knotted belt. There are many kinds of belts, and the method of knotting is different. A widely used method of tying knots is called "Taikoo Knot". There is a paper or cloth core in the belt where the waist is tied, which looks like a square box. This is the decoration behind the kimono that we often see. Because tying knots is very troublesome, there are ready-made "improvement belts" and "cultural belts" after the war. Although today's Japanese daily clothes have long been replaced by suits, kimono is still recognized as a must-wear dress for weddings, celebrations, traditional flower patterns, tea ceremonies and other grand social occasions.

Judo enjoys a high reputation all over the world. The basic principle of judo is not to attack, but to use the opponent's strength to protect the body. The grade of judo players is expressed by the color of their belts (primary: white/advanced: black).

Kendo is a Japanese fencing sport, which originated from samurai's important martial arts fencing. According to strict rules, the contestants wear special protective equipment and stab each other's head, body and fingertips with bamboo knives.

Karate is a fighting sport introduced to Japan from China via Ryukyu Kingdom (now Okinawa). Karate does not use any weapons, only fists and feet. Compared with other fighting sports, karate is a practical form of sports.

Aikido was originally just a kind of exercise to practice "shape", and its basic idea is not to use force against power. Compared with judo and karate, Aikido, as a mental exercise and fitness exercise, is very popular with the elderly and women.

Calligraphy, when it comes to calligraphy, I believe many people will think it is a unique art in China. In fact, calligraphy is not only popular in Japan, but also one of the ways people cultivate their temperament. In ancient Japan, calligraphy was called "Tathagata" or "calligraphy", and the word "calligraphy" did not appear until the Edo period (17th century). In Japan, the popularity of writing Chinese characters with a brush should be after the introduction of Buddhism. Monks and Buddhists imitated China and copied scriptures with a brush.

Noko is a traditional Japanese drama and one of the oldest extant dramas in the world. Nengju originated from ancient dance drama forms and various festival dramas held in Japanese shrines and monasteries in the12nd century or13rd century. "Neng" means talent or skill. Actors hint at the essence of the story through facial expressions and body movements, rather than showing it. Now this kind of drama still has tenacious vitality in Japan.

Sushi is a kind of food made of sashimi (さしみ), raw shrimp, raw fish powder and so on. Mix with white rice, vinegar, seafood, horseradish, etc. Knead into a rice ball. There are many kinds of sushi, not less than hundreds, and sushi in different regions also has its own characteristics. Most of them are prepared with rice and vinegar first, then wrapped with fish, meat and eggs, and wrapped with laver or bean skin. When eating raw fish sushi, drink Japanese green tea or sake, which has a special taste.

Japanese cultural history

Does Japanese culture have its own roots? The answer is yes. Although Japanese culture always takes foreign culture as the medium in its formation and development, it has its own roots after all. Japanese culture is like a tree, and its roots are deeply rooted in Japanese customs. If we investigate its origin, it can be traced back to the rope-grain era thousands of years BC. "Rope culture, Yayoi culture and tomb culture are three periods of Japanese primitive culture."

Japanese history began with the appearance of stone tools, and the rope-grain age is Japan's stone age. The pottery of that period excavated by archaeology has a colorful straw rope appearance on the surface, which is called rope pottery in history. Rope pottery has a long history, its appearance is more and more complex, and its patterns are more and more colorful, which shows the maturity of pottery-making technology and the development of stone processing at that time. Although Japan was already in the Neolithic Age, due to the geographical position of the island country, the advanced culture of Eurasia failed to enter Japan at that time. Rope people live in hard caves and still make a living by fishing, hunting and gathering, but they don't know how to farm. The lag of productivity also made its society stay at the stage of matriarchal clan commune at that time. Witchcraft dominates people's primitive social life and spiritual life.

From the 2nd century BC to the 3rd century AD, Japanese history entered the yayoi era. Archaeologists unearthed new pottery with different rope patterns in Yayoi Town, bunkyo-ku, Tokyo, which is called Yayoi pottery in history and Yayoi culture in history. Yayoi pottery is simple in shape and uncomplicated in pattern, which is quite different from rope pottery and embodies a new aesthetic taste. It is generally believed that Yayoi pottery was imported from overseas, that is, people who moved in from the mainland may have brought a new Yayoi culture. Although the new culture overcame the original rope pattern culture and became the mainstream of Japanese culture, foreigners were eventually assimilated by indigenous people, and the Japanese nation was not interrupted. During the yayoi period, the productivity was greatly improved, because the advanced continental civilization spread to Japan through the Korean peninsula, which prompted Japan to enter a farming society dominated by rice farming economy, and the Stone Age entered the Iron Age. Yayoi people engaged in farming, growing food, and gradually formed a large village with labor force. Patriarchal social system replaced matriarchal social system, and class differences and political rule gradually formed. At that time, nature worship and witchcraft superstition still dominated people's spiritual life, especially the prevalence of farming sacrifice activities, which became a major feature of Yayoi culture.

From the 3rd and 4th centuries to the 6th and 7th centuries, many ancient graves with high graves, represented by the former round graves, were built in various places, marking the era when Japan entered the ancient grave culture from Yayoi culture. Building an ancient grave requires recruiting a large number of laborers, and exquisite handicrafts such as mirrors, swords and gouyu are also buried in the grave, which symbolizes the great power of the deceased before his death. This is in sharp contrast to the simple burial after death of ordinary people, which shows that a powerful autocratic centralization has been formed, that is, Yamato, with Ju Chi as the center, finally unified Japan in the early 5th century. During this period, Japan not only introduced material civilization from the mainland, but also began to introduce spiritual civilization from the mainland. On the one hand, Han Chinese and Koreans who immigrated to Japan, the so-called "naturalized people", began to use Chinese characters to record. On the other hand, China's knowledge of Yin and Yang and astronomy was introduced into Japan. In the 6th century, Confucian classics and Buddhism were also introduced into Japan through the Korean Peninsula, which opened the curtain of Japanese spiritual culture.

As can be seen from the above, the germination and formation of Japanese primitive culture has gone through a long historical period. It can be seen from the research of rope pattern, yayoi and ancient grave culture so far that the primitive culture of Japan was produced by the Japanese in primitive society in the process of fighting against the external nature, seeking and enriching their own material life, and once the island country of Japan came into contact with the outside world, foreign advanced culture was introduced immediately and became the growth hormone of Japanese culture. Secondly, spiritually and culturally, witchcraft and sacrifice dominated the social life of Japanese in primitive society, which provided a foundation for the formation of Japanese national religion-Shinto. Thirdly, the formation of Japanese primitive culture is almost synchronous with the formation of Japanese nation and country, and they are closely related and inseparable. That is, taking the Yamato region as the center, integrating all ethnic groups and forming a "Yamato nation"; The "Yamato State" finally unified "100 countries" and established an emperor state.

After Japan was reunified, it not only absorbed China's advanced production technology, but also began to absorb China's political system. Especially in the process of promoting the reform of ancient dynasties (554-628), the reformists headed by Shoto Kutaishi (574-662) carefully studied China's classics and absorbed all kinds of advanced ideas and cultures imported from China and North Korea, especially the Seventeen Constitutions formulated by Shoto Kutaishi adopted China's laws, Confucianism, Mohism and Buddhism. In the reform of Dahua (646), Emperor Kotoku (587-654) imitated the official system of the Tang Dynasty and carried out a comprehensive political system reform, thus pushing Japanese society to a centralized feudal country with a complete legal system. The 7th century to the middle of19th century was the historical period of Japanese feudal society. Houfei (593-7 10), Nara (7 10-794), Ping 'an (794- 1 192), Kamakura (11)

The culture of the early Japanese feudal society (Flying Birds, Nara and Heian Period) was embodied in the culture of Baifeng, Tian Ping and Heian. The so-called Baifeng culture refers to the culture from Dahua to Nara, and Tian Ping culture generally refers to the culture of the whole Nara period. During this period, Japan actively established close relations with the Sui and Tang Dynasties, actively absorbed the culture of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, especially the Tang Dynasty, and effectively promoted the development of Japanese culture. After Buddhism came, it was used by the court, protected by the court, and even became the state religion. Buddhist art, represented by Yakutski in Nara, became a major landscape in Japanese cultural history at that time. In addition, on the basis of memorizing sounds with Chinese characters, Japan borrowed the sounds and meanings of Chinese characters to mark Japanese sounds and created a "pen name of Wanye", and created a collection of harmony songs, Wanye Collection. At this point, Japan ended the history of language without writing, which is an epoch-making event in the history of Japanese culture. With the emergence of pseudonyms, Japanese literature gradually occupied the mainstream position. Architecture and sculpture, painting and music, calligraphy and tea ceremony. , all show their "gentle breeze", showing the unique characteristics of Japanese culture.

The culture in the middle period of Japanese feudal society (Kamakura era and Muromachi era) was characterized by samurai culture. Samurai, originally meant to learn martial arts and be in charge of military power. It appeared in Japan as a new class after the middle of the 9th century. At that time, with the strength of the manor, a folk armed force was formed to suppress farmers, fight against the State Council and defend the interests of the manor, which was called the Samurai Regiment. The establishment of the Kamakura shogunate marks that the martial regime with samurai as the ruling class has become the actual power to dominate Japan. When the Kamakura shogunate declined, the imperial court tried unsuccessfully to regain power, and the Muromachi shogunate came to power. Compared with the aristocratic culture centered on the imperial court, samurai culture is more inclined to the masses and contains many new popular cultural factors. As far as the samurai class itself is concerned, the ethics formed by taking the master-servant contract as the principle of interpersonal relationship has both the inhuman side of trampling on creatures and the new moral vitality of loyalty to their masters; The morality of samurai also changes with the times, which must be analyzed in detail. Samurai literature with the theme of samurai's military life, the popularity of Zen, which is consistent with samurai's mood, and the emergence of various theoretical works are all new features in Japanese cultural history during this period.

The culture in the later period of Japanese feudal society (Anshi Taoshan and Edo era), that is, the culture in Edo era (also known as Tokugawa era). The edo period lasted for more than 260 years, and it was a period of maturity and collapse of Japanese feudal society. Due to long-term social stability, economic prosperity, and once closed to the outside world, pre-modern Japanese culture was extremely prosperous and mature. In a word, the main trends of Edo culture are as follows: First, China's Confucianism, especially Zhuzi Studies, gained exclusive status and became an official ideology, which promoted the development of Japanese spiritual culture. The second is the creation and prosperity of Japan's unique ideology and culture. Third, the acceptance and study of western culture.

China's Founding and Meiji Culture

At the end of Tokugawa (1845- 1867), Japan faced a national crisis and a feudal crisis. From the middle of18th century, European and American powers began to spy on Japan. 1854, Perry led the American fleet to knock on the customs for the second time, forcing Japan to sign the Japan-US Goodwill Treaty, and the door of Japan was opened. The subsequent signing of the "Five-Power Security Political Treaty" ended more than 200 years of political lock-up, leaving Japan in a semi-colonial position and deepening the national crisis of full-scale colonization. At the same time, after the opening of the port, various class contradictions in China intensified, and the struggle against the autocratic shogunate rose under the banner of "respecting the king and rejecting foreign countries". Although the shogunate carried out some reforms and tried to get rid of domestic troubles and foreign invasion, it eventually collapsed in 1868 due to the terminal illness of the feudal shogunate system, and the Meiji government was established. Since then, Japan has opened a new chapter in modern history.

Meiji era (1868- 19 12) was an era when Japanese capitalism was formed, developed and headed for imperialism, and it was also an era when Japan entered the turn of the 20th century from 19th century. From the perspective of cultural history, Meiji culture should not only provide the foundation for the new government to establish a modern capitalist state system in the early Meiji period, but also serve the later capitalist modernization. On the other hand, Japanese culture should also complete its own transformation and develop its own culture. Generally speaking, Meiji culture experienced three stages: enlightenment and westernization, criticism and reflection, compromise and creation.

In the early Meiji period, the new government, which had just emerged from the feudal system, put forward three major policies: civilization, industrialization and prosperity, and making Qiang Bing rich. Civilization means liberation of pre-modern society and modernization of capitalism. At that time, Japan had realized that it was necessary to learn from both western material civilization and western spiritual civilization. Fukuzawa Yukichi, an enlightenment thinker known as a national teacher, said: "Civilization has two aspects, namely, external things and internal spirit." The appearance of civilization is easy to get, but the spirit of civilization is hard to find. Therefore, he put forward the model of "transforming people's hearts first, then transforming government decrees, and finally achieving tangible things" to realize Japan's modern civilization. Then, centering on "Liu Ming society", a group of promising intellectuals set off their enlightenment thoughts, and the wave of Westernization hit the Japanese archipelago, rippling all aspects of society and shocking the hearts of the Japanese. However, the tide rises and falls. After the Westernization craze cooled down a little, nationalists made a comeback, trying to deny enlightenment and revive tradition. People of insight, while criticizing the retro trend and affirming the general direction of civilization, also reflected on the chaos in the early ideological and cultural circles, and explored the way to create modern Japanese culture with the imported western culture as the medium according to the needs of modern Japanese social development. It can be said that the culture in the late Meiji period has been transformed into modern culture, and in the process of flowing, colliding and blending with western culture, a unique road for the development of modern Japanese culture has been explored.
