An Overview of Rural Gender Differences in China

The differences between rural men and women in China are summarized as follows:

1, Native China is a sociological work created by contemporary sociologist Fei Xiaotong, which was first published in 1948. This is a book about rural areas in China. The author describes the structure, customs and traditions of rural society in China in a simple way.

In this book, the difference between men and women is an important theme.

3. In Native China, the chapter "Differences between Men and Women" expounds the gender concepts and social roles of rural men and women in China.

4. Firstly, the author points out the concept of gender in rural society in China, that is, the different roles and positions of men and women in family, social and economic life.

In the family, men usually play a leading role, while women take more responsibility for housework and raising children.

6. The formation of this gender concept is closely related to the traditional customs of rural society in China. Traditionally, the social roles of men and women have been strictly divided.

7. Men are usually responsible for farming, hunting and trade, while women are mainly responsible for housework, textile and cooking. This division of labor is natural, thus forming the different status of men and women in the family and society.

The author also points out the different social structures between men and women. In rural society, men and women are usually divided into different groups and have different social circles.

8. Men usually get together to exchange topics such as agricultural production, trade and politics, while women get together to discuss topics such as family and parenting.

9. The author also emphasizes the influence of this gender concept on rural society in China. This strict gender division of labor not only limits the career choice and social status of men and women, but also affects their psychological state and quality of life.

10 "Native China" deeply analyzes the traditions, customs and gender concepts of rural society in China, and shows the strict stereotypes of men and women's social identities at that time, as well as how they restricted the possibility of individuals in society and family.
