In ancient myths, why did fairies always marry poor people?

This is the beautiful yearning for love in ancient China, the ancient class class was even stronger, and the poor had no chance to turn over, so there are these cross-class love stories in mythological stories.

Because these stories are all made up by those poor scholars, I hope that a white rich beauty will fall in love with her and work hard. Cao Xueqin also talked about this phenomenon in ancient dramas through the mouth of Jia's mother in "Dream of Red Mansions".

Because it is better to find a sense of presence around the poor. The poor are less knowledgeable and have much more sincerity than the rich.

Male immortals don't look down on mortal women, because mortal women have too short lifespans, and if they fall in love, the final result will only be that male fairies live alone in the world, but their wives are changed one by one, and they experience the tragedy of the death of their wives and daughters again and again.

Because female fairies like secular life, and male fairies are relatively strong, almost all of them already have wives in the sky, and there is another kind of girl who likes to watch, and the female character is set up as a fairy.

Because the feudal ideology is at work, and the patriarchal ideology is more serious, the ancient legends will be so different.

Because in ancient times, there was a legend of the Seven Fairies, saying that the Seven Fairies married Dong Yong, which made us believe in love, but ordinary mortals, they would not marry immortals, only immortals married mortals.

It's because male fairies generally have a lot of work and tasks in the heavenly court, and they don't get bored like girls, so they don't always go down to the mortal world to play, and they can't meet ordinary people they like.

Because the ancient ** article is mostly men, the majority of the educated are men, and the aristocratic women will be educated, but even so, this part of the group also serves the patriarchal rule, that is to say, the whole society is still dominated by men, even if there are aristocratic women who are educated, they are still unable to get rid of the limitations of the times, even if the individual has thoughts, they are also suppressed by all aspects of the spirit, it is impossible to publish it, or it is difficult to publish it, and even if it is published, it is not recognized by the mainstream of society.

Because in the legend, women are the symbol of love, many men are the symbol of heroes, and male gods do not have so many love brains.

Because male gods are generally high-ranking now. They looked down on these mortal women, and they were not willing to go down to the mortal world, after all, wine was enough for them to live.

The image of a female fairy is often fluttering, full of light, and there can be many different images, but what about men, if you think about it, he is Superman or barefoot Immortal or Spider-Man, it seems that Pan An's men are often just rich, and beautiful men are afraid that there are only foreign stories!

Because it was a matriarchal society at that time, and the social status of women was higher, inviting fairies to come down was in line with the hopes of most people.

Because the people who write these things are men, just like yy** now.

I think there are two reasons for this:

1. It entrusts the wishes of the literati. I think the people who write the stories are all men, weak scholars, and their love may not be happy, so they put good hopes in mythological stories. Of course, women also marry the wrong man, but in ancient times, the words of the matchmaker of the parents' orders were the most important, and in addition, in ancient times, women were virtuous without talent, and they did not read many books.

Not many people recognize the tragedy of marriage.

2. Women symbolize beauty. In "Dream of Red Mansions", it was once said that "daughters are flesh and bones made of water". Compared to men, women are subject to less social pressure and do not have to be put into a social dye vat. So the fairy is simple, and love is the crystal. It's more in line with people's imagination.

This is for those who create myths.

I've always wondered, hitchhiking.

Because fairies are rich, they don't care whether the other party has money or not, and they care more about the other party's character and ability, so fairies always marry poor people.

Because in this way they can embody their sympathetic and caring good gods, so fairies always marry the poor.

Honesty is also a precious and scarce quality, the Cowherd will never turn his back on the love of the Weaver Girl, he stands on the bank of the Tianhe River with his two children, looking forward to it, waiting for the annual meeting of the Magpie Bridge, the Tianhe River is surging and singing, their immortal love.

The fairies in ancient myths and stories are all poor scholars after going down to earth, firstly because they are knowledgeable and understanding, and secondly, they are kind.

Because the scholar has a bookish atmosphere, he is kind-hearted and his appearance is outstanding, in short, he is silly and cute.

After the fairy descends to the earth, she sticks to the poor scholar, so that the story will be more eye-catching and more ornamental.

It is very difficult for a poor family to marry a wife, but their character is good.

Even a woman as beautiful as a fairy will come to him in the end!

In fact, if you think about it, almost all of these myths and stories are **, and they are not groundless.

Only some high-ranking nobles and wealthy families can take one concubine after another.

In fact, this is the author's fantasy of showing society, hoping that he will be appreciated to a certain extent.

These are not like this, the reason why this is the case is a kind of longing and yearning of the author for these things.
