It is so obvious that women dress up as men, why can't the ancients tell them apart? Is it because they have low IQ?

In traditional culture, the requirement for women is not to leave home, and unmarried women wait in the bedroom for the right man on the date of birth. Therefore, women's publicity is considered immoral. Although it should be criticized now, it was taken for granted at that time.

Why can't the ancients tell the difference?

First, women in ancient times didn't take enough care of their skin because of the limited conditions, and the skin was inevitably rough. In this way, women wear men's clothes without washing or making up, and at first glance they look like normal men. You can't tell the difference without looking carefully.

Second, the ancient people were very conservative, so they all wore long clothes and wrapped tightly. The results basically covered the physiological characteristics of women.

Third, men and women in ancient times had a common feature, that is, they all had long hair, so even without hats, they would comb their hair like men, and no one would easily get suspicious.

Is it because they have low IQ?

First of all, look at the superficial reasons: First, analyze the two time periods before and after China women bound their feet. Really strict foot binding is said to be in the Ming or Qing dynasties. Leave it alone. This kind of serious damage to human body parts has been strictly implemented and supervised on a large scale. Therefore, it was unrealistic for women in those days to dress up as women. It's easy to tell from your feet and walking posture. If you can't notice this, you can only say: Maybe it was intentional! This kind of foot binding is purely to satisfy the abnormal hobbies of rich men and discrimination against women!

Look at before the Qing Dynasty: There are different opinions about the origin of foot binding, some say it started in the late Northern Song Dynasty, some say it started in the Southern Song Dynasty, and some say it started in the Ming Dynasty. After all, this small series is not an expert and it is not easy to judge. To cite a few concrete figures: Three female generals in the Water Margin, some with fierce style, some with high martial arts skills and some with carelessness, seem to fail to see the significance of foot binding. These ladies, let alone women disguised as men, are no less dressed as men! It is understandable to meet such a woman disguised as a man!

This has a lot to do with the ancient hierarchy.

Ancient aristocratic women were obedient and virtuous, and they couldn't leave the house without leaving the second door. Do you think men are free? In fact, men will be taught a lot and spend more time on their studies. In addition, after the age of seven, men and women will rarely see women other than their closest relatives. Women are obedient and virtuous, and can't go out. Men are born blind to women and know little about them. Most women join the army because of their helpless family and economic situation.

Seeing thin people, unlike men, will also feel very handsome. Ancient women are not like modern women, and ancient genes are not so good. Like Mulan, they are all Xianbei people, tall and unlike women, it is difficult to recognize them as normal. As for women who are curious about how to get their period in the army, the living environment in ancient times was not so good. They joined the army at a young age, and the children from poor families are even more stunted. In addition, the army is poor, and it is very likely that menstruation will be less than menstruation.
