The "mysterious part" of the ancient woman: only the husband can see it, and it is painful to see the photos left behind
Everyone knows that China was a feudal society in ancient times, which is not only reflected in the hierarchy between people, such as male high and female low. In ancient times, only if you were the emperor's daughter or concubine, you would have some right to speak, and in ordinary families, your wife did not have any right to speak. Obey the father before marrying, obey the husband after marriage, and obey the son when he is old, so all kinds of vulgar and uncivilized habits arise.
Today, the author and everyone say that the "mysterious part" is one of the vulgar, this part can only be shown to the husband in his life, because this habit is really a very cruel and tyrannical behavior for women, just looking at some historical pictures will make people heartbroken.
This vulgar habit is to wrap a small foot - a three-inch golden lotus.
Inch is an ancient way of measuring in China, many people may wonder how big is 3 inches? If you use modern measurement methods, 1 inch is the modern 3.33cm, three inches of golden lotus is about 9.99cm, when you see this data many people are very surprised, a woman's feet to wrap so small, this is how sad ah!
Foot binding was very popular in ancient China, and many female dolls suffered such ravages. Speaking of foot binding, we must also mention the Southern Tang Dynasty.
Before the Southern Tang Dynasty, there had never been a foot binding incident, but because at a banquet, many maids in the harem danced for Li Yu, and Li noticed this woman with a variety of styles, Lady Miao. When she danced, she seemed to be like a lotus flower, delicate and charming. What made people particularly surprised was that her feet were wrapped in white cloth, and her feet were much smaller than others, very petite and cute, and Lee was very fond of them. Therefore, she became Li's most beloved concubine among many concubines.
Since then, many people have begun to follow the example of wrapping their feet with white cloth, and after the demise of the Southern Tang Dynasty to the Song Dynasty, this behavior is even more popular. If there are female dolls who do not bind their feet, they will be discriminated against by others, but this is only used for some rich princesses.
By wrapping the feet in a white cloth, there are also grades, the feet are longer than 4 inches - "iron lotus"; the feet are between 3 and 4 inches - "silver lotus"; the feet are about 3 inches long - "golden lotus".
In ancient times, after a woman married, she was required to have three from four virtues, and she could not go out in her daily life, and she had to be a good wife and mother at home.
A woman's foot belongs to a very private part, and can only be shown to the husband, if it is seen by other men, it is disloyal to the husband, that is, the woman's foot wrapped in a white cloth is the most private part.
Only from this vulgar habit we can see that china was a patriarchal society in ancient times, and that male aesthetic views were abnormal and unhealthy. It is precisely because of this aesthetic that women have to suffer this grief at an early age.
From the photos left by history, we can see that the shape of women's feet is a deformity, which can show the pain that was to be endured at that time.
Sadly, this deformed foot was also promoted by the ancients!
