A man without hair is a dragon.
The article "White Tiger and Qinglong" in China Encyclopedia of Sexuality says: "No pubic hair is called hairless. Women suffer from hairlessness, commonly known as white tiger among the people; Men suffer from hairlessness, which is commonly known as Qinglong among the people. Pubic hair, like hair and beard, is different because of individual differences. The occurrence of pubic hair is restricted by sex hormones. General female 1 1 ~ 12 years old, male 14 ~ 15 years old. With the development and maturity of ovaries and testes, they began to secrete sex hormones to stimulate a special protein (receptor) in pubic hair follicle cells, and began to grow pubic hair. When pubic hair receptors are imperfect, pubic hair is rare and soft. If there is no growth receptor, it will be hairless. Generally, women's hair loss is mostly physiological, and there is no important disease in the body, which does not affect health and fertility. ..... However, some people think that the white tiger or the green dragon is an ominous sign, and there is a saying that "women suffer from husbands and wives". This is an absurd and superstitious understanding. "
Taiyuan Dialect Dictionary: "White Tiger Essence: Superstition refers to adult women without pubic hair, who think that such women will hurt Kefu Zu and bring bad luck." Luoyang dialect dictionary: "White tiger: women have no pubic hair." Chongming Dialect Dictionary: "White Tiger Star: Calling a woman a curse is bad for her life." Chinese dictionary: "white tiger star: the evil spirit mentioned by astrologers, which is unlucky when it meets." For example, the fortieth chapter of the History of Civilization says: "Every mother has a husband, which accounts for one share ... but together, she has made a white tiger star, and her parents are unfavorable and a little punished." Mao Dun's Spring Silkworm II: "That bitch is a white tiger star. If she is provoked, she will be defeated. -Old Bao Tong often warns his youngest son like this. "
This "white tiger essence", from the simple meaning of "Baijiajing", is just homophonic and scary. White, blank, no, just like from the beginning. No pubic hair. Household refers to vulva. Pure white, repeat. In Qinglong, "Qing" and "Qing" are homophonic, meaning innocence, that is, no pubic hair. Dragon is a variant of snake, and folk argot refers to male taboo as snake. It can be seen that language is used to turn pubic hair into sensational sentences. Because men are superior to women, words like "Qinglong" are not widely circulated, and there are no corresponding entries in the above dialect dictionaries. The "white tiger" has become an accessory and mystery of this superstition. The bottom layer refers to immoral sex, which refers to immoral people as "wasting men" or "wasting women", and then generalizes and expands them to hinder ancestors and others. This is the so-called wife, so it is meaningless.
Dialect proverbs use the homonym of "white tiger" to cover up reality and show emptiness, so it is difficult to make things interesting. They can also refer to other things. For example, Harbin calls an adult man without a beard a "white tiger mouth". White also means nothing, and the homonym of "tiger" means "beard". It is recorded in Compendium of Materia Medica that lime and watermelon used in traditional Chinese medicine are also called "white tigers". See Compendium of Materia Medica, but did not say why. It comes from the homonym of lime "white" and watermelon "fire" (dialect or homonym of fire and white tiger). In ancient times, poor scholars called the soup of green vegetables and tofu that they often ate "Qinglong White Tiger Soup" to seek poverty. It is also homophonic from the color of tofu. Green vegetables make soup, homophonic "Qinglong soup" The homophonic expressions of "White Tiger" remind us that "White Tiger" and "Qinglong" originally refer to the artistic expression of "Good Samaritan" showing off their cleverness, and there is no other meaning. Because of strangeness, it spread. People who spread it often don't ask for a solution and don't know the homophonic twists and turns. However, thoughtful and pervasive superstitious professionals are sensitive to their own business experience, so they use flowers instead of trees, sneak into old warehouses, attach mink to dog tails, and add superstitious contents such as gender, husband and ancestors.
