English to Dutch: Foot binding General field: Other Detailed field: History
Source text - English Although foot binding is perhaps one of the most infamous forms of body modification, its origins in China are unknown, though we know it was prevalent among the wives and daughters of nobles by the thirteenth century. It eventually spread until the practice was commonplace. Foot binding usually began when a girl was five to seven years old, and consisted of her feet being bandaged tightly while she was growing, causing the bones in her foot to break, the sole to bend down to meet the toes, and the toes to bend under the foot. This painful and crippling practice was based on the sexual and aesthetic appeal of small feet.
Translation - Dutch Hoewel Chinese voetinbinding of lotusvoetjes, waarvan de oorsprong onbekend is, één van de meest beruchte vormen van lichaamsmodificatie is, heerste het vooral onder edele Chinese vrouwen en dochters vooraleer het een alledaags fenomeen werd uit de dertiende eeuw. Voetinbinding begon meestal tussen de leeftijd van vijf en zeven jaar. De voetjes van meisjes werden zo strak ingebonden dat tijdens de groei de voetbeentjes braken en de tenen onder de voetzool vergroeiden. Deze pijnlijke en verminkende praktijk werd toegepast om te voldoen aan de seksuele en esthetische aantrekkelijkheid van kleine voeten.
