Why did ancient women bind their feet? What is the reason behind it?
Some women who bind their feet are basically from small to large, and even their feet are tightly bound. Now we practice a yoga stretching for less than a minute, and the next words can be heard all over the building. Foot-binding was not only popular among the bureaucrats and nobles in the Song Dynasty, but also sought after by many celebrities, including Su Shi and Xin Qiji, who wrote articles praising foot-binding, such as "It's hard to say it's exquisite, but you must look at it from the palm of your hand" and "The shoes are as small as a yellow bow, and your waist is afraid of being blown down by the wind".

Ancient people always thought that the beauty of women should be reflected in the "feminine" side, that is, small, weak, demure and soft curves. From the numerous poems left by literati, we can also see that the ancients preferred little feet. Everyone has the so-called love of beauty, but people in the past were ruthless and changed directly from the body. Today, they are added from the device. In fact, girls nowadays are also cruel. For example, cosmetic surgery in South Korea, one of the four major witchcraft in Asia, is even worse than foot-binding in early years. The history of when foot binding began is unknown, and it is probably thought to have started in the Song Dynasty. It started in Song Dynasty, developed in Ming Dynasty and flourished in Qing Dynasty.

The old saying of "three-inch golden lotus" is deeply rooted in people's hearts. Walking with little feet is graceful, like a weak willow and a high wind. Taking this as a measure, little feet are easy to get married. Feet are considered as a kind of beauty. Feet as slender as jade are like crescent moons. Ying Ying feels good when shaking hands. The skin is better than rotine's gel, and I will never fall in love with him at first sight in my life. In feudal society, women were regarded as accessories of men, men were superior to women, and the patriarchal society bound and oppressed women.

This is a concubine who originated from Li Houzhu in the Southern Tang Dynasty. She is beautiful, versatile and good at singing and dancing. Li Houzhu specially made a six-foot-tall golden lotus, decorated with jewels and ribbons, and ordered her to tie her feet with silk, so that her feet would bend slightly and make a new moon. This kind of women's active acceptance and implementation has passed down the foot-binding behavior from generation to generation, further deepening the social discipline of women's bodies and further deepening the patriarchal society.
