Footbinding means, first of all, the weakening and deprivation of the ability to walk freely. She has lost the tools to explore the world and the ability to escape danger. She has not mastered her own destiny, so she can only sojourn, cling to, and wait for charity and the favor of the goddess of fate.
Footbinding is also materialization, ignoring her emotions, a quantified standard based on peculiar aesthetics is the only ticket that determines her fate in this life. She doesn't need to reflect, she doesn't need to have feelings, she doesn't need to think, she is confined to the cage of wealth, power, family - she is not as good as a stray dog.
She is cut off from the world, and her only contact with society is through a pair of perfect three-inch golden lotuses to realize
the virtues of women: patience, patience, or fucking patience.
Patience, patience, and your mother's resistance.
In this painful woman's life, in this oppressive age of deprivation of liberty and humanity, her only luck is to get to know the "old man" - she understands, she understands her pain, she cares about her joys and sorrows , she is her true soul mate and a bridge to the world.
I don't think they are gay. The famous contemporary psychologist Robert Sternberg's love triangle theory believes that there are three elements that constitute love, namely: passion, intimacy and commitment.
Passion? Is Snowflake's peeping at the scene of Lao Tong making out with her husband a kind of love empathy, or is it a disappointment to her "polite, restrained, but never said I love you" husband?
Why can even the most basic, same-sex friendship be so misrepresented?
Why do women care about feelings? Because they are restricted from seeing the world and conquering the world.
Why are women so kind? Because they see themselves in being insulted and damaged.
A desire to be shared and understood, and to form a response to understanding and support, is called abnormal. Why deny the most basic and authentic emotional and psychological needs of a person?
Women, women, please wake up.
See through the logic of the bastard's rule made by lies,
Sisters, sisters, please open your eyes and
see the pitfalls behind this honey life.
Remember, you are a man before a woman.
Remember, don't be fooled by the comfortable life and give up your intelligence for a life that is not secure.
Believe in yourself, stay away from ulterior motives, and don't give up on yourself.
Destiny is in your own hands.
I think this is what Wendi Deng and Zhang Ziyi want to tell us.
The world is theirs, ours, and, after all, ours.
