The Tang Dynasty was so powerful, why were there so few chaste women?

Personally, I think this situation is normal. Do you really think it is a good phenomenon that there are many chaste women? I can tell you responsibly that the appearance of chaste heroic women represents the bondage of ideology and culture. The concepts of chastity and female Xia appeared in the Song Dynasty and were put forward by Zhu, a Neo-Confucianism scholar in the Song Dynasty. Although Zhu put forward the concepts of chastity and heroic women, he is not very upright, but a little mean. Zhu put forward this concept, but he is a pickpocket, that is, having an affair with his daughter-in-law. You can imagine what kind of person Zhu is.

Therefore, I personally think that it is precisely because of the strength of the Tang Dynasty that its ideology and culture are so open. In addition, if you travel to ancient times and become a woman, you are betrothed to a man. But before you married that man, he was very ill and died. Because of the concept of chastity, you had to marry them. Even if that person is dead, you have to be widowed for life to meet him. This is an extreme concept, but it can also explain some problems.

The ancient virgin and the virgin we understand now are not the same concept. The chastity women in ancient times tend to be conservative, and then the chastity women we are talking about now have their own integrity and are not debauched. And ancient refers to widows. This is why I would say that the ideology and culture of the Tang Dynasty are open and inclusive. Chastity and heroic women in ancient times have been extreme. Interested friends can go and have a look. Although this concept has certain positive significance, its side effects can not be ignored.

Ancient women were bound by this concept. Originally, this concept was good, but later the operators of local officials went to extremes. Because under the governance of those local officials, there are also folk customs assessments in this regard. So some local officials force women to be widowed, so I prefer the open Tang Dynasty.
