Hey,which do you like?

the first picture is han-chinese girls and boys wore the real chinese traditional dress---Han Costume which is original of Korean and Japanese traditional dress

the second one is han-chinese girls and boys wore manchurian tradtional dress-Qipao and Magua

although the Han Costume was forced to be disappear in China by Manchurian killed totally nearly 100,000,000 chinese people in AD.1644,but now it appears in China again!

100,000,000 people in 1644AD? One hundred million? That's hard to believe, are you sure it wasn't 100,000 or 1,000,000?

Han looks more comfortable and easier to manufacture or make at home, but also easier to hide things...... like weapons.

can we blame the Falun Gong?

No, it looks like a picture taken by a photographer with the entourage of some important figure, being welcomed to a hotel/store/arena/something.

Trust me.

I was going to make a flippant reply about the amount of times you have been greeted as an important figure... then realised you'll at least have been part fo the entourage at some point

well, it just reminds me of that time I accidentally found myself inside Madame Wongs House of 10,000 Delights -- just off of Alvarez in LA Chinatown. So I don't actually have first-hand lnowledge of the real thing.

Welcome to the Cellar, sevenseven.
it's true.since 1644AD manchurian killed nearly 100,000,000 han-chinese people(they are my ancesters).manchurian is babarian same to mongolian.but some young han-chinese don't know the history.manchurian forced han-chinese men to wear manchurian dress and cut the hair to make a pig tail behind head like manchurian men,it's very very ugly!if han-chinese men didn't follow manchurian,manchurian would cut their heads.millions and millions heads were cut by manchurian!just because my ancesters only wanted to keep dress and hair ourselves.before 1644AD China is super powerful country,but since manchurian stolen my country,it became poor and rude!that's why more and more young han-chinese decide to recover our real traditional culture,manchurian traditional isn't han-chinese traditional including the dress and hair!

thanks for your welcome,but my english is not very good,some replies i can't understand.

btw:i am the left second one(girl) in the first picture who wore white dress

the second one is manchurian dress.girls wore qipao.boy wore magua.it stands for manchurian culture not han-chinese.that's why foreigners looked down chinese since manchurian stolen my country to force my ancesters to wear their ugly dress and pig tail.

Qipao was made in 1920s' in Shanghai China.at the beginning only hookers wore it.but time goes by,other girls wore it also.now few girls wear qipao.i usually see the girls who are waiters in the hotel wear it.and the hooker still like to wear it now.I am pure-blooded han-chinese girl.in my whole life i never wear it.it's too "sexy".and my culture isn't "sexy",it is very deep.

Oh, 100,000,000 since 1644, not 100,000,000 in 1644. That makes it at least possible, I guess.

Are you worried that, as China becomes more capitalistic and money flows in, classes will develop, people won't all look the same, won't be equal anymore?

Do you think the old hatred, between all the different races Mao forced together as one people, will cause trouble...try to gain power?

i am not worried that.neither han-chinese nor other china nationalities want to go back 30 years ago.when i was born,chairman Mao had died for 2 years.i only can know those years things from my parents.

i hope my country becomes more and more powerful
