Sobre IBD

Mencio, el segundo filósofo más importante de China, cuenta la historia de un hombre del Reino de Qi que vivía con su esposa y su concubina. Este hombre salía todas las mañanas, y volvía siempre a casa después de haberse hartado de comida y de bebidas. Un día, la esposa y la concubina decidieron seguirlo, y lo vieron entrar en el cementerio, donde mendigaba los sobrantes de la comida y del alcohol que los visitantes llevaban a las tumbas para venerar a sus muertos. En China, el hombre del Reino de Qi es sinónimo de varón perfecto, del hombre que comparte su dicha doméstica con más de una mujer.
