Why is it that in ancient times marriage could be kissed and married, but in modern times it cannot?

The reason is simple, ** to regulate the population. That so-called "theory" cannot be believed. In fact, it was legal for cousins to marry in China a few decades ago, but then the population grew too fast, in order to curb this momentum, it was necessary to reduce the marriage rate and marriage time, and the ban on cousins from marriage reduced the marriage options.

In ancient and modern times, the Chinese population was not large, and they paid attention to a man with many sons and many blessed children and grandchildren, and paid attention to a pro-family and fat water without leaving outsiders in the field. Population is an indicator of national strength, so China's traditional concept and state support naturally do not have so many bluffs. And in the world, the vast majority of countries now allow cousins to marry, is it true that Chinese scientists are literate?

Other countries are fools? Cousins are forbidden to marry, forbidden second children, etc. are just means of regulation, as long as there is a way to get married, if you have a cousin and cousin wishful thinking and nothing to care about, maybe the older generation is still very happy (this kind of thing is very common in the older generation).

The reason is that the farther the blood relationship between men and women, the smaller the defects in the birth of offspring, because the genes of close blood are the same, including genetic defects, so the offspring of close relatives who marry are more congenitally stupid! However, the distant blood relationship can be genetically recombined, effectively avoiding the overlap of gene defects, so the disadvantage of consanguineous marriage is that it is not conducive to the eugenics of offspring.

Because now we pay attention to eugenics, and we are afraid that close relatives will give birth to fools, and the ancients only pay attention to pure blood. Fools don't care.

The ancient marriage customs were very cumbersome, so let's take a look at the steps of getting married in ancient times!

We all know that the ancients were very particular about marriage, and the ancients put the important matter of marriage in a very important position.

Ancient people believed that dusk was an auspicious time, so it was common to celebrate marriages at dusk. This is where the "faint prayer" comes from.

So how did the ancients get married, and see below.

In ancient times, men at the age of 20 performed the "crown ceremony" to indicate that they had reached adulthood. And the girl is 14 years old and the adult performs the "and the ceremony". Indicate that you have reached the age of marriage. Therefore, the rite of passage is inextricably linked to marriage and wedding.

After the marriage, the woman needs to change the hairstyle to indicate that she is no longer a girl, but a bride to be married. "Upper head" is not only to comb the hair and pull it up, but also to dress up the whole head, but also to open the face thrush, apply grease and powder, etc.

At this time, it is cloudy and rainy at this time, and I don't know where the dream of the new year is.

The red makeup leaves the corridor, and it is difficult to distinguish people under the crown of the bead curtain.

This poem is about the scene when the woman is on her head. At this time, the woman was very conflicted and uncomfortable. I don't know if the person I wanted to marry in my dream was **.

After putting on makeup and leaving, I am no longer a person here, can I still recognize the person I was thinking about in my heart under this beaded curtain?

There are generally two ways to say that the hijab is a marriage custom:

One of the theories is that the hijab is for shame; Another theory is that it originated from the ancient plundering marriage, which means that the bride will never find her way back after wearing a hijab.

In ancient times, when marrying, the man had to go to meet the bride. "Welcome" is the most solemn of the six rites.

If there is no bridegroom, there is no bride. In ancient times, there were those who walked and those who used cars, and it was more common to use an eight-person sedan chair to greet relatives.

The person who carries the sedan chair must be physically strong, and when encountering someone else's sedan chair, he must not meet them, and must walk around. When you come back, you have to go back the most way to get the meaning that you won't go back.

If you pass through temples, ancestral halls, tombs, wells, rivers and other places on the way, you must be covered by a red felt hand by the man who marries the man, as the meaning of "warding off evil spirits".

In ancient times, there were many wedding ceremonies, and the worship ceremony began one after another after the woman entered the door.

First, after the bride gets off the sedan chair, the ten-mile red carpet is spread on the ground, and on both sides are the people and neighbors who greet relatives, and then enter the upper hall with the groom, which is the so-called hall.

The ancients performed in order.

Heaven and earth are great, and the parents who sit in the high hall are secondary, and the last is the ceremony of husband and wife.

In ancient times, women married men, and many of them were arranged by their parents, so that men and women never met.

And when a woman marries into a man, no matter whether the man or the woman is ugly or not, she cannot and cannot regret it.

After entering the cave room, there is a very important etiquette, that is, the gift of handing over the cup.

The ancients thought very thoughtfully.

On the day of the wedding, the whole house was red, ten miles of red carpet, red candles, red window flowers, red wax, red paper, accompanied by candlelight under the moon.

The Spring Festival is worth a thousand gold, and the candles in the cave room are beautiful, what do you think?
