Talking about foot binding in my 90 s

In fact, in ancient times, there was something worse than this, that is, women had to bind their feet, otherwise no one wanted to marry such a woman. So why did ancient women bind their feet when they were in pain? Female compatriots can be said to be persecuted by the bad habits of feudal society. They were forced to bind their feet since childhood, which made their feet deformed and developed, in order to satisfy the public's aesthetic of "women's feet" and caused serious harm to women's body and mind in past dynasties. Especially after the decoration, the beauty of dancing with little feet is unparalleled, and the feet are small and exquisite, which is particularly beautiful. This small-footed aesthetic once became the weather vane of that era.

In this way, women who bind their feet can't travel long distances or do heavy manual work, so they can only stay at home and do some housework of needlework and brain embroidery; Men can work outside with confidence because women can't go out. Foot-binding is a bad habit. Wrapped feet are ugly and inhuman, but it was different then. In ancient times, little feet were called three-inch golden lotus. The smaller a woman's feet, the better and more beautiful, which is really a morbid aesthetic. Listen to them talk about the pain of foot binding when I was a child. When I was five or six years old, my bones were still tender, so I broke my foot and wrapped it up. It is really a tear! At this age, they will still feel pain in retrospect, and this pain will accompany them all their lives.

When I was a child, there was a 90-year-old grandmother in our village. She also wrapped her feet when she was a child, so that now her feet are seriously deformed. She said that her parents asked her to wrap it when she was a child. So why did you bind your feet in ancient times? I think there are three reasons. It was caused by Li Yu, the queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty. Li Yu is an incompetent emperor. Because there is no hope of rejuvenating the country, he drinks every day to drown his sorrows. If you drink too much, you will recite poems and write poems, and your relationship with concubines and maids is chaotic. He seems to know that he is doomed to die, so he plans to spend the rest of his life happily. This aesthetic view is really incomprehensible! This kind of "beauty", which goes against nature and health and is based on destroying women's bodies, is an extreme distortion and metamorphosis of real beauty.
