in china
there is a village where women have
small
feet so small an
iphone is bigger than them so small
even kids have bigger feet
what is this village and why is this
happening
there's only 10 left in the world wow
really only 10 they
are no longer around
when i was in china i heard about a
village
with small feet i couldn't believe it
so i took the first flight out to go see
it
for myself
let's go
i left the rich part of china and landed
here in a farming village where mostly
poor people live
[Music]
many of them have never seen a foreigner
before
we were the only tourists in town
what's up yeah yeah
[Music]
we walked around the village looking for
women with
small feet and unfortunately we couldn't
find
any we knocked on doors and people
didn't want to talk to us and other
people told us
the women have died what happened
they are no longer around we almost gave
up
and headed home until we saw a small
room with a grandma and her son inside
her name was fuji pain
she was 95 years old but her feet
looked like they belonged to a
five-year-old
turns out she is the one we came to look
for
she's one of 10 people in the entire
village
still alive with this kind of feat in
ancient china
if you wanted to be a beautiful woman
you had to get
small feet so mothers would crush the
feet
of their daughters intentionally for
years
so that they stop growing so they
remain small
in ancient china this was considered
american beautiful
it's a status symbol feet three inch
small
and you become the golden lotus
sixty years she has been she erupted for
16 60 years yeah she did it for 60 years
so maybe that's why she couldn't achieve
the really small it doesn't make sense
to us now
but 40 to 50 of all women
in china were forced to have small
feet for the rest of their lives
surprised this was considered
luckily this tradition ended 90 years
ago
most women with small feet have passed
away
and the last small shoe factory closed
in 1999
[Music]
the tradition may have died but there
are many others
that continue to exist to this day
women still have to change their body to
look beautiful
in china they make feet small in britain
they make the waste small and in america
they make the breasts big so
many painful ways for women to look
beautiful
in our society it is crazy
i can't believe that just happened the
meeting with fuji peng
was eye-opening to all of us because
the price women paid and continue to pay
is high the price of beauty is painful
the price of beauty is unnecessary
let us change standards of beauty today
so our kids in the future can just be
themselves
