Why is it that the old saying goes, A good woman has fat, but she doesn t have four ?

When it comes to folk village culture, we have to talk about proverbs. These "local cultures" contain many of the essence of life summarized by the ancients, just like the sentence "good men have hair, good women have meat" is very unique on the earth. Actually, this sentence is best understood separately:

Good men have hair, good women have fat; Good men have hair, good women have flesh.

Good men have hair. This means that if he has thick hair, he is healthy. This "hair" refers specifically to hair, beards, and other hair that should be very long.

Why does long hair represent health? Having said this, we should praise the wisdom of the ancients. There is also medicine in the proverb.

In human organs, the lungs are responsible for fur, so one sign of healthy lung function is the vigor of fur. The lungs are healthy, the whole body is full of gas, and the physical strength is high. In the past, most people did manual work.

Health is human capital. An unhealthy body and great strength are one of the criteria by which a "good person" is judged.

Good women have fat, not that the fatter a woman is, the better, but that a woman should grow meat where it should be, such as breasts and buttocks. Nowadays, people choose a daughter-in-law to look at their face as well as their body. Most people believe that "the thinner, the prettier".

But in the past, obesity was considered a sign of health. When a woman is fat, she is less likely to get sick and not have children. Recently, rural women have had to work in mountainous areas with heavy farm work.

If a daughter is too skinny, even if she looks good, she is not as popular as a fat girl. In the eyes of people, being too thin is a disease. No one wants to marry a sick seedling back home.

The combination of these two sentences means that a good man must not only be physically strong, but also self-motivated. A good woman should pay more attention to connotation and family, which is also applicable in modern society. Now I know the meaning of the rural proverb:

Good man, good woman". However, these rural proverbs still need to learn their connotations, and the dross will be eliminated!

It may be that in the past, people thought that girls were fatter and better in mate selection.

This sentence actually has three meanings related to good men and hair, and is used to identify good women.

The so-called "don't have four" means that women must pay attention to the fact that they can't have a 40th birthday.

Good women have fat That is in ancient times, people thought that women were plump as beautiful. In the same way, when a woman reaches the age of forty, her appearance gradually gets older, and the burden on her body is getting bigger and bigger, the children have to be raised, and the in-laws have to take care of them.

Because this sentence is talking about those who are better, it is a word of praise.

The meaning of this saying is that fat women are also blessed. They should not be disliked.

This is also the characteristic of good girls handed down from the older generation.

This is just an old man's words, there is no scientific basis, please believe in science.

This is the words of the ancient Chinese, a description of a good woman.

As the saying goes: "A good man has hair and has three, and a good woman has fat and has four", what does it mean? Does that make sense.

"A good woman has fat and has four" means that "a good woman should have a plump body, preferably no more than forty years old." ”

"Don't have four" means that a woman is only forty years old, a woman's forty is the arrival of menopause, and it is also a symbol of aging, fertility declines, physical strength declines, and the value of a woman is gradually lost, and people are very taboo to say that they are past 4.

A good woman should have fat, not that the fatter a woman is, the better, but that someone should be "bumpy and plump". This view is mainly related to the concept of childbearing in the past in the countryside. In the past, people's positioning of women was mainly to pass on the lineage, and the task was to give birth to a son for the family.

Therefore, the older generation has concluded from long-term experience that if a woman is slightly chubby and plump, then she is more likely to have a son.

As the saying goes: "A good man has hair and has three, and a good woman has fat and has four", what does it mean? Does that make sense.
