As traditional Chaozhou people, we have generally heard of the above statements, but some people have heard and heard more comprehensively, know more, and have a better understanding, while some people only know these. I don’t know the first thing and the second thing, but I still understand it. It is precisely because of this that there are messy memories and messy traditions.

Why do we need to record these? We may need to find other historical records to check, but at least in the current Chaozhou city, especially when many people of the same age reach the age of marriage, they are commonly asked about the horoscope of the hour. Such fortune-telling elements, and it is very difficult for people to accept those with the above conditions in their horoscopes. This unscientific tradition, which tends to expand, is threatening the generation of Chaozhou people born in the 1980s.

Some people believe that although fortune-telling is unscientific, there are many unscientific things at home and abroad in ancient and modern times, but there are indeed things that are more scientific than science. Therefore, in the general environment where existence is reasonable, Po Yue and Whether it will become a major factor in traditional marriage, and as a traditional generation, they expressed that they will do their best to protect this.

Other people believe that life is precious. Now that we have come to this world, we can get along with the people around us, and even date and fall in love with each other. This is fate, a fate above all else. Regarding fortune-telling, believe in fortune-telling and avoid misfortune. It cannot be regarded as an element of marriage.

I personally feel that Chaozhou people, as a typical regional group with strong traditional characteristics of the Chinese nation, are famous for their glorious development history and are proud of the countless elites who have been born among them. , the deep-seated superiority manifests itself as typical machismo in the family, and as obvious regional protectionism in society. In addition, the purity rate of local residents in Chaozhou City is quite high, and there are very few opportunities for external exchanges. Generally speaking, this is very detrimental to the development of the local population.

Whether it is scientific or not, Poyue theory is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Just like some things, before we understand the root of their origin, it is unscientific to blindly define their right and wrong. But there is one advantage. At the expense of a small number of people, the persistence of this theory is conducive to the creation of a harmonious society and harmonious families. And people who were considered bad in this choice actually regained the possibility of a better choice.

Everyone knows the laws of genetics. The characteristics of the previous generation, including genetic diseases, can be passed on to future generations. This is passed on through chromosomes in the reproductive cells of the father and mother. The genetic code that determines various physical traits of children is contained in various genes and is linearly arranged on the chromosomes of the parent's reproductive cells according to certain positions. At the same time, close relatives cannot marry. There are nearly 4,000 genetic defects in humans, including about 3,360 single-gene diseases. Autosomal recessive genetic diseases among single-gene diseases have a greater impact on population quality, such as mental retardation, congenital deafness and disability caused by metabolic defects, etc. There are only a few patients with autosomal recessive genetic diseases in the population, and the majority are carriers. Taking congenital mental retardation as an example, the gene defect rate is about 1%. Since everyone has a pair of genes, the chance of being a carrier is 2%. However, only one in 10,000 children of non-consanguineous marriages will suffer from congenital mental retardation. one. Marriage between close relatives means that they have the same ancestor. If they carry a disease-causing gene, the chance of two disease-causing genes meeting increases, which means that the chance of suffering from genetic diseases increases. The closer the genetic relationship is, the greater the likelihood of having the same genes, and the greater the likelihood that offspring will suffer from autosomal recessive genetic diseases and be carriers after marriage. This is also the transmission characteristic of autosomal recessive inheritance.

For a long time, due to the influence of various reasons such as feudal ideas, old customs and backward culture and science, Chaozhou people have conducted many marriages among locals, forming a closed and relatively narrow intermarriage circle. This is essentially a kind of inbreeding, which brings adverse consequences to the improvement of population quality. The influence of Po Yue theory on the generation born in the 1980s has, from a certain perspective, hinted at the need to reshuffle the scope of marriage, and a small number of people under the influence of Po Yue theory were forced to make helpless choices. , at this level, is the group that was pushed out during the development of biological survival of the fittest and will be the first to be improved.

Everything has two sides. Look at it rationally and maintain a good attitude. I believe that the persistent and brave Chaozhou people can realize something more valuable and promote the development of the regional population.
