What kind of pain did ancient European women experience when they "girded their waists"?

China has a very criticized traditional bad habit against women, called foot binding, which has brought indelible pain to women's health and mind. In western European countries, there are some phenomena of women girding their waists, which are actually very harmful. Even many European women are forced to die because of their waist-binding, because the things they use for waist-binding tightly strangle their stomachs and even pull their ribs out of the wounds. In severe cases, it will crush the ribs and insert into the liver, leading to death.

First, the origin of European women's waist-binding According to European historical records, there was no activity aimed at women's waist-binding at first. The earliest girdle originated from the court life in Europe. Unofficial history records that a French princess was pregnant because she was with another man. Because she was afraid to let the king know that she would be punished, she wrapped her stomach tightly with a piece of cloth. Sure enough, my stomach is tangled, but I also found one advantage: my chest is high. If I wear a low-cut dress, it will look good with jewelry. So this practice of girding the waist spread in the court and was widely loved by European women.

Second, the harm of European women's girding. Some people may think that we also have waist-binding activities now. Why is it harmful for European women to gird their waists? In fact, this is a deformed aesthetic. In order to keep a beautiful figure, women in the upper class put on corsets. Even some corsets need wooden boards and metal strips as support. They pursue beauty too much and forget how much their bodies can bear. The thinner the waist, the more space for the development of the stomach is squeezed, and even both sides of the waist are tired of wounds. Therefore, the deformed aesthetics in Europe make their waist-binding activities very dangerous, and even make people lose their lives. Because in severe cases, it will squeeze the ribs and insert them into the liver.

Third, maintaining women's consciousness, corsets in Europe and international players in China are all very cruel customs to women. It is this deformed aesthetic concept that has made women suffer severe persecution for thousands of years. Therefore, women should pay attention to safeguarding their rights and interests and establish a correct aesthetic concept.
