Why do Japanese wear so little in winter?

First of all, the weather in Japan is not as cold as in our country, because it is close to the seaside, so the climate is humid. I live in Toyama, Japan. It often snows all over the sky in winter, but the temperature is around 0 degrees. Winter is just a pair of trousers and autumn clothes. I wear a coat to go out.

It is said that Japanese don't wear down jackets in winter. In fact, to sum up, we can ask why the Japanese wear so little in winter, and are they really not afraid of the cold? As far as I know, it's not that I'm not afraid of the cold, it's a tradition handed down by Japanese ancestors. Why? Tell me. First of all! Japanese people are not afraid of the cold, mainly because China people see Japanese people wearing a cotton-padded jacket, wearing a scarf and then exposing their thighs in winter, so some people say that Japanese people are not afraid of the cold and their thighs don't need to keep warm. It is a Soviet conspiracy that China people wear long trousers and cotton trousers in winter. I just want to say, stop it. Japan was a backward country in ancient times, but it only became an advanced country in the last 200 years or so. Before that, it had fallen behind 1000 years. The so-called backwardness is nothing more than extreme material poverty and uncivilized culture. In ancient Japan, there were no kimonos except those worn by parents, and there were no gaps in kimonos without pants. Watching Japanese dramas and cartoons, everyone knows to wear kimonos without underwear. This has been handed down from Japan since ancient times. Besides, I didn't wear any pants.

I went to Japan twice, both in winter or early spring, once in 165438+ 10 and once in February, but it was not cool weather anyway. The temperature in Tokyo is about 5- 10 degrees, and it snows in Hokkaido. Even so, the children you see in the street are still wearing vests and shorts.

Oh, my God. ...

The picture below shows Yokohama. Look at the children's clothes.

After living in Japan for three years, I can tell you that there are four distinct seasons, spring, summer, autumn and winter. There is cold and heat. The main problem here is that Japanese living standards are relatively perfect compared with China. In winter, the indoor heating is on. There is hot and cold water in the kitchen. Japanese adults have cars. They can stay outdoors for 2-3 minutes at most. Just when they felt a little cold, they entered a room with heating. On snowy days, Japanese colleagues will also sigh with us that it is very cold today. They have put on some clothes. In winter, people will put on warm babies or cover them with blankets. To sum up, they would rather freeze to death than add clothes. They will try every means to keep out the cold, but don't wear more clothes.

Impressively, as soon as I entered the supermarket, it snowed heavily. It rained several times in succession. A tall and beautiful woman is wearing a sleeveless chiffon dress. That's a very elegant feeling. Open-toed sandals are worn in the cold storage area all summer. This is not what I admire most. What I admire most is the female classmate walking on the road. A lot of shiny legs are exposed to the air like this …
