This is actually because women with status in Europe are required to gird their waists. They usually use templates or metal sheets to fix their waists, and then tie them up with tie bags. In order to show the curves of the waist and buttocks, they often have difficulty breathing.
This has also led to their unhealthy lungs and prone to respiratory diseases. Many women are strangled directly because they are too tight.
The positioning of beauty will change in different countries and different times, but this one is universally applicable. People everywhere think that a slim waist is a beauty at any time. Once, a French queen made a corset made of metal to squeeze out the mistress, which made her waist shrink to 40 cm, successfully gained favor and gave birth to her first prince.
In addition to external tools to gird the waist, in order to keep fit, ancient European women often used the method of eating tapeworms to make this parasite consume food in the body, so that they were not afraid to eat too much.
In the past, girls in Europe were very beautiful with thin waists, which was a very interesting aesthetic, and of course it was a silent destruction to women. At the age of 19 10, the trend of girdling gradually faded, and women's waistlines finally returned to a size more in line with their health.
Of course, modern medicine can accurately identify women's fertility and health problems, but in ancient times when medicine was underdeveloped, British, American and Asian writers could intuitively know the biological relationship between beauty and health. It can be said that a thin waist is the standard of beauty, which is almost determined by human instinct.
The current research also proves that the beautiful women with narrow willows are indeed the most fertile. The convincing research results show that women's health and fertility are directly related to the waist-hip ratio. A study of 500 women who went to a Dutch hospital for artificial insemination showed that. Women whose waist-hip ratio is less than 0.8 (that is, a small waist with an hourglass shape) are almost twice as likely to get pregnant as women whose waist-hip ratio is greater than 0.8 (that is, a thick waist with a tubular waist).
Remember Vivien Leigh who charmed all the men in Gone with the Wind? She is so charming only because the corset creates a sexy S-shaped curve for her, and the maid at home tightens the belt behind the corset, which is why ladies and gentlemen are so charming in front of them. The popular S-curve still drives men and women crazy.
In the past, girls in Europe were very beautiful with thin waists, which was a very interesting aesthetic, and of course it was a silent destruction to women. Just like China bound feet for women in ancient times, the development of female beautification always bears a deep male aesthetic brand.
