The evolution and characteristics of ancient marriage system, what is the difference between ancient marriage and modern marriage?

The difference between ancient marriage and modern marriage is that most ancient women rely on their husbands after marriage, and because of the feudal thought of three obedience and four virtues, the status of ancient women is very low. Although the status of women had been greatly improved in the Tang and Song Dynasties, it also depended on the power of husbands. After the Ming Dynasty, women's status was still in the stage where men were superior to women, so in ancient times, marriage was a constraint for women, while for men, it was a way to emphasize male power.

Modern marriage is in a society where men and women are equal, so after the woman's status is greatly improved, even if the two sides can't get along, they can divorce. Marriage is not binding on women, and because of their equal status, women now have the right to speak after marriage, while ancient women have no right to speak.

In ancient times, a man could take a concubine after he got a wife, but in modern times, monogamy was practiced. Therefore, if a husband marries another wife, he commits bigamy and goes to jail. But for ancient women, because they were in a patriarchal society, their careers were arranged by their husbands, and their status in the family was very low. Even if their husbands want to take concubinage, as wives, they can't object. If you object, you will be considered jealous. In ancient times, when men and women got married, they always had a marriage certificate and three matchmakers and six wives, while women mainly lived by their husbands. At the same time, we should also bear the responsibility of having children. In modern marriage, although there is a marriage certificate, women can divorce freely without worrying about their children, and women can support themselves without relying on their husbands. Compared with ancient women, modern women have more autonomy in life and personal feelings, because they don't need to rely on people to support them. However, women in ancient times were bound in boudoir because of the influence of feudal thought, and they regarded boudoir as a symbol. A woman without talent is a virtue? In fact, it is a kind of pressure from male power on female education.
