What misunderstandings do we have about Chaoshan people?

1. Son preference. Take me for example. My mother gave birth to a boy and a girl. It was indeed because my first child was a girl that my parents wanted a second child. I am an older sister. My parents have pampered me the most since I was a child. Because I am a girl, I have always been the one who was pampered since I was a child. And as far as I know, all the girls around me are like this. Regarding the Chaoshan people’s concept of favoring boys over girls that is common among outsiders, all I can say is that it’s time to update it as soon as possible. It did happen in the past, and I can’t say it doesn’t happen at all now, but I guarantee it is definitely not as exaggerated as the outside world spreads. Moreover, in the land of China, who can say which family does not have the pressure of having a son to carry on the family line. 2. It was also a phenomenon before that those who married into Chaoshan had to have many children. From the generation I was born, it has become rare to have more than three children. My mother said that raising the two of us was already very stressful. Not to mention those who are married now, my cousin and cousin are now only children in every family. All I can say is, if you meet someone who dares to ask you to have many children, just marry him. He must have a lot of money. 3 Chaoshan boys are very chauvinistic and girls have a low status. Speaking of which, I feel sorry for my father. I have experienced since I was a child that my mother is definitely the first in terms of status in the family. The best example is that my father will definitely hand over all his salary. I remember one time when my father was found to have hidden two hundred yuan of private money (in fact, there is chauvinism among Chaoshan boys, but most of it is reflected in their decisiveness in major matters and "not having the same experience as you women") Open-mindedness and generosity are of course reflected in loving my wife. Hahahaha, you can tell by looking at my parents. 4 Chaoshan girls are very virtuous. When it comes to this, I can only say that I know it myself just by looking at the poster... Chaoshan girls. Xianhui, this is really a misunderstanding, let’s just leave it alone. (I can’t cook myself, and I don’t have enough money every month, so I can only coerce and induce my brother to recharge Alipay to buy snacks, clothes, and other things, blablabla. Hahahaha) The last question asked is whether to marry outsiders. This can only vary from person to person, and everyone has different ideas. However, most Chaoshan parents want their children to marry locals. You must at least be able to speak Chaoshan dialect. But if your children are with foreigners, their parents will not object, but it will take longer to get along in the future. After all, cultural differences, lifestyle, language, etc. cannot be ignored?< /p>
