The origin of festivals

Men's Day

The origin of "August 8th Festival" is related to War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression. 1On August 8th, 945, during the period of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression in China, some patriots in Shanghai launched "Father's Day" to celebrate and commemorate their father who died for his country on the battlefield. This idea immediately received a positive response from Shanghai residents. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the government designated August 8 every year as Father's Day and ordered the whole country to observe it. Father's Day is scheduled for August 8th every year, because August 8th is homophonic with "Dad", and the word "August 8th" is linked together like a "father" in the table. Since then, August 8th has become Father's Day in China, also known as "August 8th Festival" or "Father's Day".

Article 83

Men all over the world unite to celebrate the festival. August 3rd will be the first real Men's Day in China proposed by Thin Horse. On this day, more than 50 companies will give their male employees a day off to celebrate.

20 1 1 Men's Day

[1] "According to the poll results, most people think August 3rd is an ideal' Men's Day'. This just corresponds to International Women's Day on March 8, which has certain significance and reflects the theme that men need to decompress and care. " In the meeting room of Fashion, which smells like coffee in Beijing COFCO Plaza, the 39-year-old thin horse, the editor-in-chief of Fashion Men's Wear, solemnly expounded his career of "Men's Day", while his clothes and body language inadvertently conveyed a fashionable and relaxed message. Just like the simple logo pattern of "Men's Day", in a closed and meticulous circle, the profile of a man with a comfortable mouth is outlined with lines, loosely connected with an electric plug, indicating that "men are not plugged in today", which symbolizes that men are completely relaxed.

Reasons for establishment

1, release male pressure and promote physical and mental health. The establishment of "83 Men's Day" is definitely a conceptual progress. The word "male" of a man has the word "field" on it and the word "force" on it, which just shows that a man is a man who runs around working outside. From ancient times to the present, men have always appeared as hard-working people. In our traditional culture, men should "cultivate themselves, keep the family in order, govern the country and level the world". Men are given too much pressure and can only be the image of the strong, and there is no room for weakness. In today's society, the mountains of buying a house, medical care and children's education make people, especially men, a snail with a heavy shell. Some surveys have found an interesting phenomenon: men are far more likely to spoil at home than their wives and children. In other words, it is very likely that all adult men in the world are more vulnerable and need comfort than women and even children. No wonder Andy Lau's "It is not a crime for a man to cry" will resonate with countless men in the north and south of the Yangtze River! The establishment of Men's Day will liberate men from the body of the strong, give the affected men a space to vent their indulgence, be a real man with flesh and blood, and promote the healthy development of men's body and mind. In fact, the male crisis in Japanese and Taiwan Province provinces is fully reflected in the rising suicide mortality rate and population depression. China has a population of nearly 700 million men, accounting for about a quarter of the global total. If it causes physical and mental health problems or endangers social security, it means that this will not only be a national problem. We must face up to the present situation, pay attention to the situation of male gender roles, advocate and promote work, and set up a men's day is a useful attempt. 2. Pay attention to men's rights and ensure gender equality. Not only that, but we also need to see the reality: while we are trying to enact anti-sexual harassment legislation to protect women's rights and interests, do we see that the cases of men being abused and sexually harassed by women are also increasing rapidly? In recent years, women's federations in various provinces and cities have received more and more complaints in this regard, and relevant news has already appeared in the media. Some places have been "forced" to set up "male care lines", which reflects only the tip of the iceberg. Because men are hindered by traditional face, they can't "talk about things" and there is no "men's association" for them to complain with confidence. Domestic violence is no longer the traditional model of "women are weak". Men, also very hurt. Ignoring such realistic problems and the increasing equality between men and women in today's society, it is certainly impossible to calmly consider setting up a men's day. 3. Strengthen emotional communication and build a harmonious family. Just as women's day, children's day, youth day and other festivals attract corresponding attention, men's day should also become a festival for the whole society to care for men. If there is a Men's Day, women can give their husbands a chance to relax and care about their husbands, and tell him through care: "In fact, my family and I have been thanking you for your hard work." This is a kind of psychological comfort and spiritual enjoyment for men, and it is also a rare emotional exchange between husband and wife, which is very important for family harmony and emotional consolidation. 4. Stimulate holiday economy and domestic consumption. The influence of festival economy is undeniable, especially in today's financial crisis and the urgent need to stimulate domestic demand to promote economic development. We see that regardless of Women's Day or any other festival, merchants will help create an atmosphere, which is both a discount and a discount. If there is a Men's Day, the merchants will immediately post corresponding holiday cards to create a festive atmosphere. At this time, men will proudly accompany their girlfriends (wives) to go shopping happily, which is not only relaxed and harmonious, but also promotes economic development. Why not? In Russia, February 23rd is "Defender of the Motherland Day" every year. Since 2002, this day has become a national holiday in Russia. Today, this festival, which originally belonged to Russian soldiers, has been extended to all Russian men. Although the Russian government has never acknowledged the term "Men's Day", it has become a common practice among the people. All Russian men can rightfully regard this day as their own holiday: from time to time, women can hear songs on demand for their husbands, fathers and brothers on the radio, and electric razors, high-grade ties and wallets in shopping malls have become the best-selling goods. Think about it, ladies, if you give him a new Nokia phone, maybe you can recycle a diamond necklace as an investment on March 8! 5. Choose August 3rd, which is rich in connotation and easy to remember. The date of International Women's Day is March 8, and the date of "Men's Day" is just the opposite, which is simple and easy to remember; Moreover, the connotation is corresponding and has certain significance, which also embodies the theme that men also need decompression and care. In similar online and folk surveys, the choice of dates is very colorful, and August 3 is the most popular. On August 3, 2006, more than 50 enterprises in Shanghai responded to the initiative and gave male employees a day off to celebrate their "August 3 Men's Day", which was a gratifying progress. Men's Day is just the beginning of a series of topics about men. What matters is why we should care for the other half of the population equally. This is a more complicated and arduous historical task than the women's movement. To paraphrase a famous saying, "It is difficult to be a man, it is difficult to be a man, and it is difficult to be a man." May men cherish themselves and look forward to a bright future. Let's say confidently: Why not apply for Men's Day?
