What do Japanese women carry on their backs? What is the cultural connotation?

The back of the kimono worn by Japanese women is a belt knot, commonly known as a "pillow bag".

1. Japanese kimono was originally learned from China. In the third century AD, when Japan was still a vassal state of the Han Dynasty, it began to learn the clothes of the Han Dynasty. During the Three Kingdoms period, it even imitated the clothes of the Wu Kingdom, so Japanese kimonos were also called "Wufu" in ancient times.

2. During the Nara period of Japan, Japan sent many Tang Dynasty envoys to China to study culture and the costumes of the Tang Dynasty. They brought a large amount of gorgeous cloth and clothing from the Tang Dynasty, making the kimonos brighter and more gorgeous.

At that time, there were no "pillow bags" on the front and back of the kimono.

3. During the Toyotomi Hideyoshi period, Japan’s maritime trade prospered, and a large number of European missionaries entered Japan to preach.

Japanese women’s kimonos imitate missionary robes and are also tied with a rope-like belt to reveal the curves of the waist.

Because the belt is very long, and the extra knots are tied after three or four turns, the kimono in the Edo period learned from Korean clothing and became a wide belt.

The belt knot was tied in the front first. In order to look good, the knot got bigger and bigger, but it was inconvenient to walk, so it was moved to the back and decorations were added to make it more beautiful.

4. There are 289 types of kimono waist knots. Different knots have different meanings and represent everyone’s beliefs and prayers. It is also a representation of the distinction between married and unmarried women.

5. Generally, outsiders are not allowed to touch the kimono knot. It is jokingly said that it is a detail that Japanese men check whether their wives are cheating on them.

6. There is also another saying that Japanese women carried a futon behind their kimono in early years. During the Toyotomi Hideyoshi period, he launched a war, which was defeated by both the Ming Dynasty and the Korean Empire, and they had to bear the indemnity treaty.

Due to war and reparations, there are fewer and fewer Japanese men. The Japanese government requires Japanese women to wear blankets on their backs and be with men at all times to reproduce the population more quickly.

Japanese women wear a small backpack on the back of their kimono. Before the Han and Tang dynasties, Japanese society was basically a primitive society. In the early days of slave society, the Japanese basically wore animal skins and lived in stone caves without any clothes. Starting from the Tang Dynasty, Japan was influenced by many Tang Dynasties and began to promote clothes. However, the nationalism, cultural centrism and great-power chauvinism of ancient countries were very strong, so the style of clothing given to the Japanese barbarians by the Tang Dynasty was not the official uniform of any level in the Tang Dynasty, but the mourning clothes of the Tang Dynasty. If you understand ancient clothing culture, especially the clothing culture of the Tang Dynasty, you can take a closer look at the differences between Japanese kimonos and mourning clothes of the Tang and Ming Dynasties, and you will definitely find many similarities. The mourning clothes of the Tang Dynasty and the Japanese kimonos originally did not have a small bag on the back, and even now the Chinese mourning clothes do not have a small bag on the back. The small bags at the waist of Japanese women's kimonos appeared in large numbers after the Toyotomi Hideyoshi Japanese Rebellion in 1592. The Japanese rebellion launched by Toyotomi Hideyoshi in 1592 ended in complete failure due to the joint attack of the Ming Dynasty and North Korea. At that time, the small vassal states of Japan had just been unified (because they had just been unified, so Japan felt that its national power after unification was very strong, so it launched the Toyotomi Hideyoshi Japanese Rebellion in 1592). The country was very backward and could not afford a war. indemnity. However, as a completely defeated party, Japan also had to pay any form of demands from the victorious nation. At that time, the Ming Dynasty and North Korea were distracted by the long-term insurrection of Japanese pirates, so they decided to adopt a policy of slowly wiping out the Japanese pirate nation. Therefore, the requirements The war claims are: 1. 3 buckets of intact testicles (bucket - an ancient rice container) every year 2. 6,000 intact human skins every year (no scars allowed) Japan was forced to hand over these 60 years of war Claims, Japan's population immediately dropped sharply, especially the number of men. After many years of civil war and several years of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's Japanese Rebellion, Japan's male-to-female ratio has become seriously imbalanced. After several consecutive years of war claims, the number of Japanese men can be described as almost a handful. After seeing this situation, the Japanese government at the time found that the men who defended their country would become extinct in the long run, and the Japanese nation would become extinct, so they issued an order: All fertile women must carry bedding when they go out. As long as they meet a man outside the house, no matter they are familiar with it, is still unfamiliar, as long as the man is willing, the woman must sleep together in order to increase the chance of pregnancy and childbirth. From then on, the habit of Japanese women carrying futons when going out was passed down. Because the climate in Japan is relatively warm, the bedding that Japanese women bring is not very large or heavy. Japanese women do not feel it is a big burden to carry an extra quilt on their backs, so as time goes by, Japanese women gradually regard the backpack on their backs as a necessity for their clothes. In modern times, after Japan's population pressure, especially that of men, eased, futons gradually became smaller and became decorative clothing.

By the Muromachi period of the 14th century, in accordance with Japan’s traditional habits and aesthetic tastes, clothing with the characteristics of Sui and Tang Dynasties gradually evolved and finally took shape. There were no major changes in the following 600 years. As for the fanny pack, it was created by Japanese women who were influenced by Christian missionaries wearing robes and belts. The fanny pack was initially placed in the front and later moved to the back. Before the Meiji Restoration in 1868, all Japanese people wore kimonos. However, after the Meiji Restoration, men in the upper class began to wear suits, which are commonly known as "foreign clothes".

As for the connotation, this is just a Japanese inheritance

That is carrying sheets and pillows...

In ancient times, due to wars, diseases and other reasons, Japan had a small population. In order to expand population, so the Emperor asked women to carry these on their backs, so that any man could create people anytime and anywhere...

When a child was born, he didn’t know who his father was, so he named the child after the place of creation: Panasonic, Watanabe, Inoue, Yamashita, Shimada, Kobayashi, Matsui... you know... [a flash of inspiration] [wit] [wit] [face covering] [face covering] [face covering]

Japan is a militaristic country. Because so many men die in wars, the ratio of men to women is often imbalanced. In order to reproduce offspring, increase the reproductive rate. Carrying a quilt on the back makes it easier to sleep with a strange man. This increases the population.

The second is a love affair package. Japanese women have one of the highest infidelity rates in the world. When it reaches 40-50%, you can carry some necessities with a bag on your back, which makes it easier to have an affair.

Third, Japan is an island country prone to earthquakes. Add a bag to the back of your clothes and prepare your daily necessities. Convenient for use during escape. No rush.

The fourth reason is to hide their ugliness. Japanese women have bow-legged legs which are unsightly. Carrying a bag can divert your attention. Let men's eyes focus on the bag and think about what artifacts are inside, which can easily arouse the illusion of desire.

Finally, the Japanese admire our country’s Tang culture. He has sent "envoys to the Tang Dynasty" to study in China many times. But they can't act like a tiger and act like a cat. In fact, the kimonos they wore were "mourning clothes" from the Tang Dynasty. People in the Tang Dynasty would only wear them when going to funerals. When you are tired during the wake, you can take out the bedding wrapped in the back and take a short rest. The Japanese have always been unfriendly to China, so even if we saw it, no one would tell them. They thought it was so beautiful.

What she carries on her back is just a piece of cloth. If you don’t believe me, go and open it for her.

The Japanese were actually immigrants from China. At that time, there were only 3,000 boys and girls who came there. They adopted the policy of openness in order to develop the population and control the local area.

In this way, women wear an extra piece of cloth in order not to take off their clothes when having sex with others. In this way, they don’t know who the children they give birth to, so the population development is almost the same. Yes, it was convenient to count the population during the founding of the People's Republic of China, so people were required to register for residence, but when registering for residence, they didn't know who the biological father of the child was.

In this case, we had to ask her where she was born as a child, and use the child's birthplace as the child's gender. In this way, Watanabe, Inoue, Matsui, Genda, and Genda appeared. Wild and other sexual nature is gone.

In this way, the piece of cloth on her back has become a kind of makeup cloth for women for a long time, and they have also continued the tradition of sexual openness.

That is a wide obi that ties the kimono, and it is knotted at the back called a bag obi

In order to make the obi look longer, you can wrap the knots into a drum shape after knotting

< p> The thicker the bag, the more solemn it is

This tying method appeared in the Edo period and was usually worn on formal or formal attire when attending ceremonies

Tying methods in various places Slightly different

The obi of a casual kimono is relatively simple to tie with a belt or a waist cord and is not wrapped at the back

For a yukata, it is easier to tie a bow on the back

The belt of a male kimono is knotted on the front belly

It used to be a quilt, but now it is a decoration. It used to be convenient for doing things anywhere, but now I am telling you not to forget, you can still go on as usual! Fuck!
