centuries ago, they had to bind and tape their feet and try to
make them remain small - OUCH!

I've heard that they did that to their feet too, and had to be carried around. I don't know if they have small feet, but I'd imagine so, since asians tend to be on the short side.
I wish my feet were smaller!! SIZE 11!! But at least they work and are pain-free

I doubt that anyone binds their feet anymore- ito would likely be considered child abuse in most countries. Asian women "tend" to be petite, compared to Americans and Europeans, so on that level, might have comparatively smaller feet too.

Look at that!!!
Anyways, call people what you want. The people who write and say your ignorant just want 2 points and have no life.
And I agree that these women are small anyways so they just have small feet. But, I have also heard that they do bind them. Maybe it was just handed down in generations from natural selection.

Um.. I think you say Asian women, and they are small in stature to begin with, binding after birth did not change their feet to evolve smaller, if that is what you are asking. And yes, it was hideous torture, but "true beauty" has always been that way, hasn't it?

Not anymore. Foot binding is actually illegal in some places now, although a few women practice it almost as a fetish activity.

Yeah, you've never seen how little they look!? They usually wear a 4.5 - 6.5
I wear a 6, and my feet are tiny!
I dont think they bind them anymore. They just genetically have little feet.
There must be an offended Asian on here giving thumbs down for no reason!!!! HAHAHAHA thats too cute!

that would be asian, and while foot-binding has been a practise for a long time it has all but been abandoned. And deforming one woman does not mean her children will have that same deformation.
