How did men and women express their love to each other in the Zhou Dynasty?

Compared with Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, the Zhou Dynasty is a distant era. Many things in this era are backward, and it may be precisely because of this backwardness that the constraints on people's thoughts and behaviors are relatively small. In the Zhou Dynasty, many men and women seldom restrained themselves and boldly expressed their love.

When it comes to the Zhou Dynasty, many people may think of the word "war drama princes". For this allusion, many people will choose to understand it from the perspective of Zhou Youwang's smile on beautiful women regardless of the national righteousness, but this allusion not only illustrates this problem, but Zhou Youwang's smile on Beaumont may also be a kind of love for praise. Zhou Youwang's way of expressing love may be wrong, but we can also see love from another aspect. Judging from this story, Zhou Youwang may not be a good king, but his direct expression of love and reckless bold expression are enviable.

People who can have love are happy, so there are many poems describing love stories in The Book of Songs. For example, Guan Yu, who is familiar to many people. In this poem, we can literally interpret a man's pursuit of the girl he likes, and fully understand his inner feelings. In this poem, I directly realized my feelings and reflected people's direct expression of love at that time. Compared with people's expression of love in Ming and Qing Dynasties, this expression is direct enough. At that time, people's thoughts were free and their spiritual level was rich. There are many poems describing love in The Book of Songs. Moreover, if people read the Book of Songs, they will find that women also had status at that time. When they meet men they like, they will boldly confess, which shows that in this era of Zhou Dynasty, not only men but also women boldly confess. From this, we can also see that the status of women in the Zhou Dynasty was higher than that in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

The Zhou Dynasty was a dynasty with a long ruling period. Although this dynasty finally perished, its traces in history are indelible. There are many celebrities and history in the Zhou Dynasty, but in many historical documents and poems, we can all see the pursuit of love in this era. In that relatively open era, men and women's bold expression of love was envied by many people in later generations, and they envied the courage of men and women in that era to boldly pursue love. Even if they were not accepted, they would still boldly pursue it.
