The Prevalence of Western Holidays
Many young people in China today prefer Western holidays to traditional
Chinese festivals. Christmas is now celebrated by the younger generation all
over China, and it has become especially popular as a romantic holiday for
boyfriends and girlfriends or young married couples. Valentine's Day is also
extremely popular, and even Halloween is being celebrated now.
This phenomenon has actually developed quite naturally in recent decades
due to our educational system's focus on English study and therefore on
English-speaking cultures. To many students, Western culture has become a symbol
of self-expression and freedom from restraint. Celebrating Western holidays has
become a way for students to express their love of something different from
traditional Chinese culture, and to have fun together with their own
generation.
In my opinion, it's fine for students learning English and studying
English-speaking cultures to celebrate Western holidays with their teachers and
classmates. However, the way I see it, unless the young people later go abroad
to live in those cultures, there is no reason for them to continue to celebrate
them. We Chinese should hold on to our traditional festivals, the festivals
which we have celebrated for centuries.
