Some people say that foot binding began in Sui Dynasty. Foot-binding began in Sui Dynasty. According to legend, when Yang Di went to Jiangdu, he recruited hundreds of beautiful women. One of them, Wu Yueniang, asked her father to make a special knife for her and wrapped it under her feet with a long cloth. Then he carved a lotus flower on the sole of his shoe and printed it one step at a time when he walked. The dissolute and shameless emperor Yang Di saw her and wanted to admire her little feet, so he called her near. I didn't expect Wu Yueniang to stab Emperor Yang Di with a dagger. Emperor Yang Di was stabbed on the spot. If he can't assassinate Wu Yueniang, he will throw himself into the river. Later, Emperor Yang Di ordered women who bound their feet not to enter the palace again.
Foot binding affects social progress. Foot-binding is actually a deformed culture, the purpose of which is to trap women in boudoir and not to walk out in public at will. But in fact, it also affected the progress of society to a great extent, because in the feudal society at that time, men had to do everything, and women could only teach their children at home. If it weren't for foot-binding, women could do a lot of things for their husbands, so our society might be more progressive.
Foot-binding has influenced the development of China dance. Foot binding can directly change the development of female bones. A pair of once-normal beautiful feet are directly deformed because of forced winding and squeezing, and women can't dance because of foot binding, which is one of the reasons why traditional Chinese dance has stagnated for many years.
In short, foot binding is a bad habit. Thanks for living in such a good time, we don't have to bear unbearable pain. We should cherish the hard-won life now.
