Why do Japanese women like to kneel?

As a neighbor of our country, Japan had exchanges between our two countries as early as thousands of years ago. Perhaps the greatest communication in ancient times was Jian Zhen's voyage to the West. Master Jian Zhen went to Japan to give lectures regardless of the danger. This time, Japan felt the power of the great power at that time.

Japan is no longer the country that needs help everywhere. Today, Japan is already the third largest economy in the world. In addition, there are many beautiful scenic spots and shopping places in Japan, which makes Japan a place that many young people in China yearn for.

Even though I said I already knew? One side of the soil and water raises one side? Yes, but I found many strange phenomena when I was traveling in Japan. I went to some service hotels several times. Because it is a traditional Japanese hotel, I can see that there are no girls kneeling at the door wearing kimonos when I enter the door. This is understandable. After all, this is a Japanese tradition, but why should I kneel?

Is it because it is more comfortable? At first, I thought it might be more comfortable to sit like that. It was not until I personally tried it once that I found that sitting like this was not too uncomfortable at first. Basically, few people in China can sit like this, and they may fall down if they are not careful. What is that? I didn't know the reason until I asked the front desk at the door

The Japanese girl explained that this is actually a Japanese tradition. In their view, this is what the Japanese shouted before eating. Shall I start? Similarly, parents will teach them from an early age. Japan is a country that pays attention to etiquette, just like Japanese people subconsciously bend over when they meet acquaintances. The biggest reason why they kneel is to conform to etiquette!

In addition, there are some detailed reasons, that is, wearing kimono is actually to let women sit on their knees. In the traditional Japanese concept, women's status is relatively low, so wearing kimono must be as conservative as possible, which is reflected in kimono. Real kimonos are more compact. This is to ensure that people who wear kimonos will not go out of shape, and they can only sit on their knees, so that they can be beautiful when wearing kimonos.

In fact, it is more important because of better service to others. In many Japanese-style restaurants and hotels, tables are generally not too high, and people sit cross-legged on the ground. But girls who are waiters can't sit cross-legged for the sake of image, so they should obey the etiquette and kneel down, so as to sit higher and serve the people at this table more conveniently.

This is similar to many visits in our country. In order to show the characteristics of our restaurant, the waiters are forced to do something, but it is also a Japanese tradition. Here I want to remind everyone that kneeling is beautiful, but it will bring a lot of harm. If there is no special reason, it is not recommended to sit like this!
