I happened to be reading a book on social development and the development of gender relations recently. The book uses a lot of data and historical facts to review the social system and various behavior patterns at that time. I am not a feminist, but matriarchal society was indeed the mainstream of clans a long time ago. , the man protects the woman and provides sperm to prolong life. The patriarchal society was formed many years later.
The female teacher in the film came to the famous women's college to give lectures to everyone. At first, she wanted to teach from a traditional perspective. The first class was "taunted" by everyone, because everyone had already previewed those courses as usual, and everyone Almost all the works in the picture can be said one, two or three, and the teacher is almost embarrassed. Students think that they will get an A in the exam if they study well according to the textbook.
The "tradition" here can be seen everywhere. In the apartment where the teacher lives, the hostess of the same room warns her to obey the rules: "No men are allowed to stay overnight." (I understand it to mean the syllabus) to teach the class", the implied meaning is "put away your new style of free-style teaching, we are all traditional spokespersons"; one of the school's female students was engaged to marriage, and her Mother has been following the tradition "You should let him read your favorite poems," whether the girl likes it or not, because it is a traditional expression; after the girl is married, her husband often goes to New York in the middle of the night or suddenly, claiming that he is busy with work , In fact, it was later found out that it was an "affair". The girl was disheartened and wanted to go back to her home one night, but was persuaded by her mother, "You have to go back to your home and wait for your husband to come back, this is for your own good"; even if Later, when the girl decided to divorce the man, her mother talked to her, "Mrs. XX and I have reached an agreement to let you adjust for a period of time, and then live a new life together, and your husband also agreed"; the mother never wanted her to make things worse , want to be at peace with each other, after all, in the traditional concept, "family ugliness should not be publicized".
A female teacher is defined by the school as a representative of rebellion. She is unmarried at an old age. She encourages female students to realize their career dreams. She said, "Family and work can be balanced", but in that society, people rarely accept women to come forward For work, they think that women look after their husbands and children at home, prepare meals, wait for their husbands to come home, and pamper them. Her "forward thinking" was accused by female students of being openly hostile to women's vocation to "give husbands and children" and instigated girls to be feminists.
My personal favorite is when the female teacher was accused by the school magazine. She was full of anger and helplessness. When she showed the pictures to everyone, she said, "You don't have to talk, just watch it", and then she couldn't control it. His emotional shouting is an anger towards the students, but also a revolt against the entire social system and a small denunciation. The last "corset" was frozen on the big screen, "Where did our freedom go?"
Although the status of women in today’s society has improved, they still “are not paid for equal work, are discriminated against in the workplace, are sexually harassed, and are considered unable to become senior executives”. The opening of the two-child policy means that a woman may have to take two maternity leave, and after taking maternity leave, she is likely to lose her job and become a woman who is unemployed at home. A woman who is too good will be considered "too domineering and too authoritarian" and is still hindered by various rules and public opinion. Even if you are fortunate enough to be in the top executive position in the workplace, there is still a big gap between the salary level and that of male leaders at the same level.
We have been talking about equality and freedom, but this road may take a long time to go. I hope women can continue to adhere to their ideals, and after "husbands and children", they can bravely face their hearts and find their position, and Not being "labeled" one after another.
In "Game of Thrones", the little devil accepted the public trial of being framed for killing King Joffrey. He said to everyone, "I was born a dwarf is the original sin, and I will be tried."
