As we all know, the ancient ruling class had very high requirements for appearance and appearance when selecting talents or officials. That is to say, if a person is ugly and has obvious physical defects, then this person will definitely not be favored and reused. He didn't even have the chance to be an official. Pang Tong during the Three Kingdoms period is a clear example.

Although there was a saying in ancient times that " people should not be judged by their appearance, and sea water cannot be measured by their appearance", it only advised people not to underestimate people, underestimate their abilities and talents, and not to deny a person based on his appearance. In ancient times, people's intuitive impression was very important under normal circumstances, especially when two people met for the first time.

If the other person feels that your appearance is different or different, they will basically give two completely different conclusions. Either they think that you are born with different looks and will become rich and powerful over time; or they think that you have a good appearance. No, he is definitely not a gentleman, because the relationship comes from the heart.

There is a saying in the saying: " If you don't say it, you will be a demon if you lick your lips, and if you look androgynous, you will be a monster." What does this saying mean? What does it mean to be male and female? This article will talk about this topic. In fact, this proverb should be understood separately. The first half and the second half of the sentence are not directly related.

Why is it that licking one’s lips without saying it will lead to demonization?

In most cases, this refers to women. Many people probably know that due to the influence and confinement of etiquette, women in ancient times almost never left the house, stayed at home, and rarely interacted with strange men.

But when they first come into contact with a man, if they lick their lips before speaking, they will definitely be considered by the other party as a woman with a romantic personality. In many movies and TV dramas, we have mostly seen scenes like this. The women in brothels are accustomed to using such actions: licking their lips and giving a wink, looking extremely charming and coquettish.

You must know that in ancient times, women relied on their parents or husbands as the code of conduct. If a woman licked her lips without saying anything, it not only represented her personal character, but also indicated that the family tradition of this person was extremely bad.

What is androgyny?

The male and female faces represent the difference between the two eyes, that is, one large and one small, also known as " Yin and Yang eyes ". In ancient times, if you had a pair of male and female eyes, you would be considered sinister and treacherous, and you would be a villain who has no profit and cannot afford to die early.

The reason why the ancients had this view is mainly caused by two reasons. The first is backward thinking and lack of scientific understanding. Male and female eyes, or yin and yang eyes, is a biological phenomenon, mostly derived from the genetic gene , and is not something they can decide by themselves.

The second is the ancient people's theory of balance and symmetry. The most harmonious way and phenomenon is the balance of all things in the world, such as the balance of yin and yang, the balance of heaven and earth, etc. Symmetrical balance is not only beautiful, but also a good sign that everything will go well.

On the contrary, it will be regarded as a bad omen that is not good for people. Take the male and female eyes as an example. Because this kind of person destroys the symmetry and balance, not only will his appearance be ugly, but he will also be evil in his heart. This proverb actually contains a certain degree of prejudice, and it is mainly caused by a strong backward thinking.

When we look at people and things, we must not only know what they are, but also why they are so, so that we can have a clear mind and clear logic. In this way, we will not treat and evaluate people and things with subjective bias.
