In China, sex is a custom highly constrained behavior. People not only on the open, lawful sexual relations showed great interest, norms and customs of trying to infiltrate every crevice of our lives.
In the Book of Songs, we talked about the many women eloped with lovers story, at least in the time of Confucius, the upper social strata, the confusion of sexual relations between men and women how much like the fallen Roman times. Was very easy to divorce, remarriage is not difficult, the girl's virginity is not of particular concern.
However, with the rise of Confucianism, especially after the flooding of the Song Dynasty Neo, women were considered the social and moral responsibility, the Neo forced the lives of women in the world of confinement, widow remarriage is a moral evil, and have cherished women The chaste.
Since then, the Chinese people for the worship of women's chastity became a psychological obsession. This obsession is a bad example is the so-called "bridal experience Zhen". This custom of the bride's virginity or not, into a spot inspection and all testify to the side naked virgin test, sad yes, the groom do not think this is the insult, a gob of own emotions, the bride do not think it is an insult to their own personality. The custom has distorted people's hearts.
Bridal customs inspection Ching is called in the civil experience red "granted towel, existed since ancient times. Wedding day by the mother of the bride gave her daughter or son-in-law, white handkerchiefs, thinking that with the beginning of the line intercourse, civil society, also known as "The Joy Pa".
Old dynasties set wedding, has granted the gift of the towel. Some places such as Guangdong, after granted towel, the bride and groom to close burglary, clouds and rain to make love to the groom's parents and friends wait at the door, romantic groom holding Zhu plate, placed within the granted towel, covered with Red Pa, as shown in the bride for the virgin new red, everyone happy, and have congratulated and roast pig to send the bride and her family. Prior to this, her family has been surmise anxious unrest, fear of the bride but not virgin red.
The sole criterion for testing the virgin because the hymen is broken, once seen red, groom and family will have to be attributed to the bride of unchastity, at least psychologically to produce great suspicion and discord, the formation of the diaphragm. The light so that the bride speechless and humiliated for life, no position in front of the husband's family and her husband, re-deported by the matchmaker woman returns to her parents.
Emphasis on virgin red, is the general concept of the Chinese society. Text good at observing people again to give a romantic ambience.
Wang Shih-fu's "The West Chamber" in the account of Zhang Sheng and Cui Yingying's tryst with particular reference to the napkin, he wrote:
Backyard flower "(later) spring Luo children pale, early to see the red cedar, point tender color, lamp low eye spy, chest meat, hides, Chang Qizai covered Winton, I do not know the spring from where to."
Playwright Tang Xian Zu its Handan Dream "that the dialogue of very bright colors, saying:" husband and wife Jin Dongfang Anthurium, ...... river made off Cha, Meng catch, no media Weaver capacity recruit married Hugh meter hanging, no sigh! multi-dipped hi Tan Lang eye scared the red at first glance, beautiful smile blowing silver wax. tonight sleep Bi screens, the Ming Dynasty to see take the Hong Ropa.
Tao Zongyi cease cultivation "recorded a Bride no virgin red scholar Yuan potential gift a dream to make a" Tonight hold a Banquet feast, quasi intended Ling Fong again, spring has gone, and asked very red crimson shallow gone, gone, also party Sclerotium.
Today, in the rural areas of Shanxi, customs inspection red rare. But some places are often in the wedding the next morning to see red, white towel on the conspicuous place outside the new house to show outsiders that the bride was a virgin.
