Foot binding was a custom practiced on young girls and women for (approximately) 1,000 years.
Foot Binding was also used to distinguish various classes in China (especially aristocrats and the wealthy), because the men who married wives who had foot binding needed to be wealthy enough to support the wife and the family. That is why the wealthy in the Ming dynasty and the Qing dynasty practiced foot binding on women.
