Why are there fewer and fewer square dancers in rural areas?

The society is developing and the countryside is progressing. Now the square dance in the city is becoming more and more popular, and the square dance that can be seen everywhere has become a special scenery in the city. What is popular in the city is also popular in the countryside. For a time, square dance in rural areas was also very popular, but now it is really less and less. Rural areas are different from cities. Most of the old square dances in the city have retired, and there is basically nothing to worry about in life. Living with a pension, the biggest pursuit for the rest of my life is sports, which has led to the enduring popularity of urban square dance.

Most elderly people in rural areas have to continue to work for their livelihood. Even when they reach retirement age, they still have to work and eat from the fields. I only dance occasionally during the slack season. When the farm is busy, I work in the fields every day, so tired that I can't even climb the kang. What's the leisure for dancing square dance? Therefore, people's different life goals lead to different changes in urban and rural entertainment activities. ?

Moreover, the old people in the city have a lot of money, and they often organize together to give some money, buy some professional clothes and participate in some special competitions, which leads to the growing interest of participants. Old people in rural areas only follow the exercise when everyone is in a mood, but for various reasons, few people can persist. Over time, everyone will feel bored and will not participate in the activities.

Old people in cities are more open-minded and regard square dance as an exercise, while in rural areas, there are many rumors. Many people think that dancing is an indecent activity, and they all think that they dance when they are full and have nothing to do. It is said that it is better to do some work at home and earn some money.

At one time, dancing was particularly popular in our local countryside, and most of them were young people. But in the process of dancing, many things happened that divorced and eloped with others because of dancing. The rural life circle is small, so there are some things circulating, which also cause rural people to misunderstand dance activities.

Therefore, due to the above reasons, there are few square dances in rural areas now. However, this is not absolute. Some rural areas advocate the construction of spiritual civilization in new countryside and vigorously advocate square dance, but after all, it belongs to the behavior of a few villages.
