Also known as Lotus Feet, this brutal tradition started in the 10th century and crushed generations of women under the weight of “beauty standards.” From our Patreon archives, this exclusive episode of the Funny Medicine Podcast is now available for everyone. We break down: • The origins of foot binding and why it became a status symbol • The painful bone-breaking process and the lifelong health consequences • The link between foot binding, sexuality, and power in ancient China • How the practice persisted for centuries, despite bans in the early 20th century • The psychological and physical toll it took on women • How Western influence, cultural change, and female autonomy movements led to its decline This isn’t just medical history, it’s a raw look at how culture and control over women’s bodies shaped generations.
