-Come together for the common revolutionary goal.
"We all come from all corners of the country and come together for a common revolutionary goal", which is a common leader's quotation when people gathered in the 1960s, including dating only for men and women.
With the outbreak of the Cultural Revolution, human nature was distorted, and political beliefs and class positions replaced the love between men and women, which led to the second divorce climax in the history of * * * and China. /kloc-During the "Cultural Revolution" in 0/0, thousands of couples separated due to reasons such as "drawing a line" and "turning against each other", and the specific figures are still difficult to count. By the end of the Cultural Revolution, personal feelings and bourgeois feelings were completely equated, and love itself became synonymous with bourgeois world outlook and outlook on life. A large number of novels, movies and plays containing love content are banned as poisonous weeds. On the stage of literature and art, there are only two kinds of relationships between men and women: class feelings or class struggle, family is a revolutionary family, and husband and wife are revolutionary couples.
Love is an instinctive pursuit and yearning of human beings, which cannot be stifled and changed by political inclination and revolution and chaos in the superstructure field. Objectively speaking, although many virtues in China's traditional culture were denied in this period, people's attitude towards love was generally simple and persistent, coupled with the strong suppression of personal feelings by ideology. As far as the whole society is concerned, the attitude towards gender relations is quite serious and conservative. This is why people still deeply miss the not-so-beautiful 1960s, when the concept of sex is becoming more and more open and the consciousness of persistence is becoming more and more indifferent.
Time element: family element
Poverty is not important. Anyway, there were no rich people in China at that time, and ugliness didn't matter. Anyway, the concept of handsome boy was far from there at that time. On the contrary, beautiful men lack the true colors of working people, and poor family composition is the main reason why most of them are single-don't blame lesbians, marry a descendant of the landlord, and your next generation or even generations may be unable to lift their heads.
Age custom: there is no custom
All the old traditional colors have been denied, even the word custom contains derogatory colors, and worship of heaven and earth has long been abolished. A couple expressed their loyalty in front of the leader's portrait, and then recited the quotation: "People in our team should care and care for each other …" Lively, please sing "Quotations Song" and dance with "Loyalty Dance".
Sequential document: marriage application
The general format is as follows: the great leader Chairman Mao taught us that there is no love and hate for no reason in the world ... and then showed the party organization who he wanted to marry (I don't know what the relationship between two people getting married and the party is very tiring), why he wanted to get married (basically everyone is the same: better resist personal criticism and actively participate in class struggle), and finally showed the determination of two people to get married (the organization should be thorough in this matter).
Characteristics of the times: separation of the two places
Large-scale organized population migration, such as supporting the construction of the third line, has caused many couples and couples to live far apart. Divorce was unimaginable at that time, so many people spent a lot of effort in the difficult and long mobilization afterwards, and spent a large part of their meager salary on the railway year after year.
Love in the 1970s.
-beautiful Xishuangbanna, can't keep my father.
As one of the most direct and important historical events affecting young people in the 1970s, going to the countryside and the large-scale educated youth returning to the city later left almost all those who experienced it with emotional shadows and trauma.
"Beautiful Xishuangbanna, I can't keep my father, Shanghai is so big, is there still my home?" This is the lyrics of the theme song of the TV series karma. This TV series reflects the pain and trauma left by the movement of going to the countryside to the whole generation of young people and their next generation. -Love produced in hardship and despair is simple and fragile. When the fate of both parties or one of them takes an unexpected turn, love and even marriage are undergoing severe tests, and the sequelae of great changes even take several generations to gradually heal. Therefore, almost all literary and artistic works reflecting the love of educated youth in the difficult environment of that period are the same model: simple ideas, natural impulses, beautiful processes and tragic endings.
Another major historical event that had a direct impact on young people in this period was the restoration of the national college entrance examination system in 1977. Many young people who might have been busy in rural areas or factories all their lives have entered the university campus, changing from workers, peasants and soldiers to intellectuals, and the rapid change of their identities has also brought subtle changes in their views on love. These people have undergone many emotional changes.
After political fanaticism and belief enthusiasm faded, mental exhaustion and will burnout gradually made people tend to be rational, and the naive love concept of the previous generation began to shake. Later, people paid more and more attention to reality and material factors, and people began to doubt the so-called purity beyond the fanatical revolutionary ideal. The whole 1970s became a bloody dusk in the era of pure love.
Age taboo: playing hooligans
Young men and women holding hands openly in the street will be scolded by the old man pointing at the back, while a pair of lovers are still wandering in the street late at night, which is very likely to be stopped by vigilant defense team members for close questioning. Even if you have enough evidence to prove that you are both descendants of the revolution, both of whom are engaged in revolutionary work, you still can't escape the hat of moral corruption and decadent ideas. So it's best to date in broad daylight.
Age and posture: Sit in second class.
That is, women sit on the back frame of bicycles (it is forbidden to cross their legs, which is a rogue posture). Not only young men and women in love often walk together in this way, but also most women are married by their husbands in this way. Of course, unlike ordinary people, they all wear red flowers on their chests. 90' s fever: soldiers
Thanks to the upsurge of the times when all the people are soldiers, active servicemen are the first choice for girls. There is a simple reason. The most important political and judicial organizations and governments have taken care of it for us. Even if the troops can't be promoted, demobilized or retired, the local government can arrange a job, which is quite advantageous in the era when there is no free economy.
Chronological standard: state-owned or collective
State-owned or collective, big collective or small collective, this is an important criterion to consider each other's identity when falling in love, and the nature of the work unit often determines the status in love.
