1. Contradictions and love between mother and daughter, women's changes and breakthroughs, pain is also a kind of inheritance, because of the differences caused by the times, neither mother nor daughter can express their love and understand each other's love. Feeling that she is not loved by her mother, she resents. The mother longs for the love of her daughter, but she is afraid that she is not a good mother and replaces care with strictness. The ancient problem still exists today, and every mother and daughter are probably very immersive.

2. Sense of self-worth and low self-esteem, lowering yourself in front of your lover, not understanding your own value, and constantly devaluing yourself makes both parties unable to be happy. Unequal love will only make both parties miserable. First of all, you must understand your own value and cherish your own. love, self-identity.

3. Expressing one's own needs, the tradition of Chinese people, being humble and courteous, taking care of others who wronged oneself, but expressing one's own needs and satisfying oneself is what people should learn the most. First, I will express my needs, knowing that my needs can be expressed and need to be satisfied, and then I will respect the old and love the young, and be willing to give up my needs because of love and kindness.

4. Thanks for the progress of society, the development of science, the rise of feminism. ?Ignorance is terrible. And, hopefully, sex education textbooks are back in the classroom.

    When I saw it on the plane back home, I couldn't help but burst into tears at the end. As an Asian, each of us has Asian palm prints in our skin, and we can't escape it at any time. As an Asian, we have been burdened with too much and we have felt too much, and it seems that the more we live, the more clear our indelible characteristics as a Chinese.

    The hodgepodge has brought out all the typical characteristics of the Chinese people for a walk. Good and evil blend together, black and white.

The Joy Luck Club quotes

  • June's Father: She thought: better not die next to my babies. Nobody saves babies with such bad luck. Who wants two babies with ghost mother following them? Very bad luck, very.

  • Jing-Mei 'June' Woo: [opening naration] The old woman remembered a swan she had bought many years ago in Shanghai for a foolish sum. "This bird", boasted the market vendor, "was once a duck that stretched its neck in hopes of becoming a goose. And now look, it is too beautiful to eat!" Then the woman and the swan sailed across an ocean many thousands of lei wide, stretching their necks toward America. On her journey, she cooed to the swan, "In America, I will have a daughter just like me. But over there, nobody will say her worth is measured by the loudness of her husbands belch. Over there, nobody will look down on her because I will make her speak only perfect American English. And over there, she will always be too full to swallow any sorrow. She will know my meaning because I will give her this swan, a creature that became more than what was hoped for." But when she arrived in the new country the immigration officials pulled the swan away from her, leaving the woman fluttering her arms and with only one swan feather for a memory. For a long time now, the women had wanted to give her daughter the single swan feather and tell her; "This feather may look worthless, but it comes from afar and carries with it all my good intentions."
