苗疆miaojiang style fashion designed by hanfu stores
#ok so for context 苗 (aka Hmong) is a neighbouring ethnicity of mine that i’m fairly familiar with by osmosis#southwestern ethnic groups like ours are often grouped together and featured in fashion designs by han people consumed by han people#so there’s a history of us Not Very Pleased with this kind of thing. but mostly people are mad that the designs look ‘cheapened’ or ‘ugly’#the discoursal framework (?) of cultural appropriation isn’t really a thing (yet) in these circles as far as i know#and a hanfu (‘han fashion’) store making and selling a design like this is kind of a loaded phenomenon#because by definition either this isn’t hanfu anymore because it isn’t han or it’s hanfu with miao elements -#and these elements are used rather - well i’m not gonna go into how cultural identities of ethnic minorities are#not in the picture in most discussions of chinese national identity or how ethnic cultural elements are taken and used by#the mainstream (& profiting from it) often without context when it’s convenient for them -#i didn’t check that hanfu store so i don’t know how this specific design fits into all this but i find it interesting that the elements the#using are very obviously traditionally feminine for miao fashion. most notably the silver#miao people in china are famously and stereotypically known for their women wearing a huge amount of silver#i wonder if that gender non conforming choice was a deliberate thing or is it because gendered traditions of the Other are simply not#culturally important enough to inspire any conscious subversion on the han majority’s part#mur#my new sinophone tag#the design itself is pretty cool btw#also the word 苗疆 is also…… an interesting choice#why is this post from last month getting likes lmao 貌似是被评论里有个嘴脏的骂了(along with another user i guess)#当时写这些是想起当年还混侗族吧的时候好几次汉人设计“黔东南”服装被批 最后都不了了之 钱当然也是汉族人赚了#当然这次语境不一样了 我啥上下文也不知道所以也没把话说死 我一个对自己民族服装没什么感情寄托的人也没有语气多激动 咋就被骂了呢 xs#不知道那家伙是英文阅读理解水平欠佳还是心灵比较脆弱

不知道爲什麽但是在微博上看到有人聽完很簡單地説了一句“不怕了”我好想哭出來啊

Siu-Kiann, or Shōu Jīng, is a rite of recalling a frightened soul. It is believed that one's soul can flee after experiencing a scare. This traditional folk ritual is performed in Taiwanese temples as a remedy that dispels the fright and restores the soul.
可以把我的魂給順帶收了
