I know that this is from ancient times, but why do people think that having a daughter means the end of a bloodline? Is it bc they couldn't keep their names? Like, they share the same damn blood
if u r talking about ancient times I think its cuz the son is the man of the family when they grow up. and when the daughter gets married im pretty sure they had to change their last name to their husbands family last name, and usually their kids last name would be the same as the husband's/father but thats what I think at least
same thought here. but in a state in my country, we have the opposite belief. women were superior than men and that all the fortune must be given to the women. men couldn't inherit the fortunes of their family and it would be pass down to the women in the household instead.
You're right abt the family name. Son could pass the family name to his children while daughter hv to change their family name following their husband's. The 'end of bloodline' thing is common for ppl with family name like Chinese and Britain's ppl as their ancestor used to really seek for family's glory rather than individuality. But I don't think a lot of ppl care abt that nowadays. Mybe just some minorities

Wait what
Who thinks that?
Mm, I think that’s just exaggerated thinking but maybe because men are usually the ones who succeed the bloodline
