What is the origin of European waist-binding, and what influence has it brought to European women?
The king of Chu had a thin waist, and many people starved to death in his palace. We modern people accidentally become fat when we don't worry about food and clothing, so more and more people begin to pay attention to their bodies, especially thin waist and long legs. In ancient times, people also had many pursuits of beauty, such as China's small feet, women's small feet as beauty, and Europe's thin waist as beauty.

First, the origin of waist-binding was originally used to correct one's spine. Later, Europeans and Americans in the Middle Ages began to sculpt, mainly to satisfy the hobbies of artists and the general public, and regarded waist-binding as a symbol of women's physical beauty. However, the process of girding the waist is very painful. In fact, it is a deformed beauty, which changes the original characteristics of the human body and brings great harm to the body. But in the eyes of westerners at that time, it was a manifestation of beauty, and women's physical harm was completely ignored.

Second, the influence of girding on European women. Foot-binding in Europe, like that in China, reflected the low status of women at that time. This kind of waist binding is mandatory, not to say that you can eat less and bind it tightly with solid. There may be many diseases such as poor breathing, pelvic congestion and skin scar in women. Anyway, in a word, it is very harmful to women's health. Now pay attention to health and practice small waists. At that time, this aesthetic was finally affected.

Third, does China have a girdle? This phenomenon does not exist in China, but looking back at the history of China and the West, we always inevitably do similar things. For example, when women in Europe were suffering from waist binding, women in ancient China were suffering from foot binding. This behavior, which is made by men but hurt by women, has caused great damage to women's feet and bones, making them unable to walk normally and wearing thick foot-binding cloth for many years. This is a cruel pursuit of beauty. These two bad habits have deeply hurt women's body and soul, and the girdling will end in about 19 10.
