Farmers often say that one daughter is inferior, two daughters are middle-class and three daughters are superior. Why?
The picture comes from the internet.
Of course, the old farmer told this example, not to tell you whether your hometown has accumulated virtue, but to talk to you about our rural people's concept of fertility.
In the past, the concept of fertility of Lao Li and his son may represent the vast majority of people. In the past, for us farmers, the concept of raising children to prevent old age was deeply rooted. Therefore, even if family planning was strict in the past, people would still commit crimes against the wind and have children until they could have a son.

However, in recent years, old farmers have often heard these words from farmers and shared them with everyone. In recent years, farmers often say: "One daughter is inferior, two daughters are middle-class, three daughters are superior, one son is inferior, and two sons are not human".
What does this sentence mean? How to understand it? Listen to the analysis of the old farmer and everyone.
In other words, we farmers only have one son or daughter, and life must be very dull; If he only has two daughters, his life will be very comfortable; If he only raised three daughters, he would be able to live a well-off life and be so happy. And if he has two sons, then this day will not go on, he will be exhausted all his life and live an inhuman life from now on.

Of course, the above statement may be slightly exaggerated, but the old farmer thinks it is very reasonable. Why?
In fact, the reason is easy to understand. If nothing else, judging from the situation of rural children marrying in recent years, no matter what the boys in rural areas are like, the high bride price will make us farmers unbearable. Under normal circumstances, marrying a son will make parents very tired. If there are more sons, parents have to work day and night to earn money. Daughter is different, no matter what kind of daughter, don't worry that she can't get married or buy her a house.
Therefore, although the explanation is somewhat exaggerated, it profoundly reveals the reality. It also shows the changes of our farmers' concept of fertility in recent years. Isn't it? Two children, for women, one more is harmful to the body. After the child is born, it will not grow up at once. It takes money and energy to raise them. It is also a big flower for children to go to school. You have to have that economic foundation. Children feel cute when they are young, and they will be rebellious and tired when they grow up to teenagers, not to mention three. If children grow up and have the ability, it will be easier when they are old. If you rely on the elderly, you will be very tired. If the child is capable and filial, it is your blessing, hehe, otherwise. The more, the sadder it is.
