And to know how you suffered through the ordeal only to bring that to your 
daughters.  I can't imagine.  But I guess they did it because the smaller the 
foot, the better marriage.  Can you imagine a guy who would marry you because 
of the size of the foot?  Most of them married sight unseen, just from a shoe 
that was brought to them.  Glad I didn't live back then or in that country.  
Those women really suffered.  We probably have some weird customs here but I 
can't think of anything that cruel.  :  )
