The legend of the feet bandaged in China

It says a legend that in century X, emperor Li Yu ordered his favorite concubine to bandage the feet with tapes of soothes and to dance on a platform that he had carved a flower of loto. The exact origin of the bandage of the feet in China is still not known but, more or less truthful the legend, is known that first that they began to bandage his feet they were the dancing of palace in century X, with the aim of heightening the grace of its movements. Of the court one extended to the high class and in century XVI one became popular by all the Chinese territory and in all the social classes.

Over the years, the meaning became absolutely opposite - to heighten the grace of the movements to restringirlos-, adapting to the feminine values defended by Confucius: the domestic life, the virtue, the maternity and the work manual.

In spite of the change of meaning, the initial sensuality, far from to lose itself was accentuated and `foot of loto' was considered the most erotic part of the body of the woman. Nevertheless, so that the feet became loto gilded - work of art and object of desire had to measure only seven centimeters and to reunite the following characteristics: thin, small, pointed, to be been nauseated, to be perfumed, be smooth and be symmetrical.

It says a Chinese proverb, a pretty face, is a gift of the sky, a pair of feet tuna is work mine. And that duro work began at the age of five or six years, of the hands of the mothers, whenever these could be allowed to maintain to the daughter without working abroad.
