In our country, it is a common phenomenon that men play the role of defenders of the family of origin in the family, and wives often become victims of such maintenance. Behind this phenomenon is the shackles of the traditional concept of the Chinese family, as well as the limitations of the division of gender roles.
Traditionally, men are the breadwinners of the family and the guardians of the family's social status. Therefore, they tend to devote more energy to the maintenance of their family of origin, such as taking care of their parents, supporting siblings, etc. The wife, on the other hand, is expected to be the head of the family, responsible for household chores and children's education. This division of labor, to a certain extent, has caused the wife to be marginalized in the family, and even become a victim of the maintenance of the man's original family.
However, with the progress of society and the improvement of women's status, this family model has become less and less suitable for the development of modern society. Women are no longer just vassals of the family, they have their own jobs, they have their own social status, and they also need to be respected and equal in the family.
So, how to solve the current situation of Chinese families where men only maintain the original family, and wives become victims? What we need is a renewal of the traditional concept of family, from"Family of origin"to"Shared family"of transformations. This means that both men and women need to abandon the traditional division of roles and share the responsibilities of the family. A man should not only be the defender of the family of origin, but also the guardian of the wife's family. Nor should a woman be just the main one in the family, but also the one outside the family.
This shift requires us to re-examine the role of the family and redefine gender roles. Only in this way can equality within the family be truly achieved and the interests of every family member, including wives, can be truly protected.
In general, the man only maintains the original family, and the wife becomes the victim, which is a microcosm of the current situation of the Chinese family. To change this situation, we need to carry out profound reflection and reform of the traditional concept of the family, and achieve equality and harmony within the family. Marriage
