What is the significance of feminism in China traditional culture?

There are only two kinds of people in this world, one is a man and the other is a woman, and women always seem to be in a relatively low position in our cognition, because many people are influenced by the feudal thought that men are superior to women and think that women should teach each other and should not develop their own careers. This idea is actually wrong, and everyone should be equal. Feminism is still of great significance in traditional culture. Women always play the role of loving mothers, and our society is matriarchal from the beginning.

1. The first significance of strict father's maternal feminism in traditional culture is that it appears as a mother image. In our present family structure, it seems that father always plays a strict role, while mother always plays a more kind role, and often stands out when family conflicts break out. This division of labor and responsibility has also become a fixed family model in China for nearly a thousand years, so the first meaning of women in traditional culture is to play the role of loving mother.

Second, matriarchal society Although in our traditional concept, the status of women always seems to be lower than that of men, in fact, when society just appeared, the whole society was dominated by matriarchal society. In the early stage of society, women's fertility greatly improved their status because of the need to rapidly expand the population. At this time, the society was dominated by women, and the status of both men and women was reversed. But later, with the gradual improvement of men's working ability, women's status gradually weakened and became a patriarchal society.

Third, equality for all If we want to pursue equality for all, I am afraid we have not really achieved it. Although influenced by Confucianism since ancient times, the idea that men are superior to women has been greatly improved, in many people's ideas, women should still play the role of housewives. Although there are more and more professional women in today's society, more women still return to their families. This is not a compromise on the idea that men are superior to women.
