It is said to be created in Tang Dynastsy in 618-901 C.E.
It was stopped in 1911 during the revolution of Sun Yat-Sen

Foot binding was a practice that originated in China over a thousand years ago. It was practiced in the country until the early 1900s.
The binding of the Feet was a custom of the upper class in China. It may have started as early as the 13th Century, and is known to have continued in a limited fashion into the 1950's. More than just binding was involved. The arch of the foot had to be broken prior to the binding! This was a very painful process.
it made there feet swell up and there bones not devolop properly
A painful process where Chinese women wrapped a bandage tightly around their feet, forcing the four small toes under the sole of the foot. This made the feet narrower and shorter and bowed the arch of the foot. It was done because it was thought to be beautiful.For the answer: NO! It was ban before the 1950's i think.

Foot binding was considered to be a norm. Woman bound their feet because they thought smaller feet were more feminine. It was a tradition and custom of the Chinese back then. It was not known then the long term harm it was doing to the females. There basically was no reason for the Chinese government to enforce any rules or laws about it.
