Why did ancient girls wrap their feet? Do you think this is right?

We can see that girls were made to wrap their feet in ancient times. Nowadays, people are very shocked when they see the three-inch golden lotus, because it is hard to imagine that some people can wear such small shoes. Why did ancient girls wrap their feet? Let's discuss it today.

First, wrapping feet is to restrict women's freedom. We all know that in ancient times, women were required to be obedient and virtuous, so women could not walk freely. Women with little feet have to stay in the yard to do housework for the family, and many women are restricted from personal freedom. Men don't allow girls to walk freely, because it will affect the morality of society. Many women are bound with their feet. After they are bound with their feet, they can't walk freely. Every step girls take has a terrible pain. Many people wrap their feet for women to restrict their freedom, so that they can feel more secure. For a long time, this bad habit was passed down, and it was not until after the Republic of China that we eliminated the behavior of wrapping our feet. Therefore, we think that the first reason why ancient women wrapped their feet was to restrict women's freedom.

Second, wrapping feet is a unique hobby for some men to satisfy themselves. We can see that many ancient men have a special feeling after seeing the three-inch golden lotus. They think the three-inch golden lotus of girls is particularly charming. Of course, from the current perspective, we feel particularly terrible in our hearts, because the three-inch golden lotus is a permanent damage to people's bodies, and many three-inch gold companies will give people permanent scars. We can see that girls have permanent disabilities after being wrapped in three-inch golden lotus, and the bones on their feet are broken. We feel that the three-inch golden lotus has no aesthetic feeling at all. But many people in ancient times had unique appreciation methods, so they would like feet like three-inch golden lotus. Therefore, we think that the second reason why ancient women wrapped their feet was that some men wanted to satisfy their unique hobbies.
