I read somewhere they used to start at 5 years old.

it's tradition, they think it's "beautiful" to have small feet like that.

I've never been a fan of foot binding.

The practice is in reality extremely painful for the women who undergo it (as it involves manually breaking the arch of the foot) and even more painful to try and reverse later in life. When the practice was banned and women were forced to undo their bindings permanently, many died from the severe pain (or more likely committed suicide). It always amazes me to see what humans are willing to do in the name of beauty (or in this case, status).

yea they start b4 the kids can even walk. they redo it like every month tightening it, the golden lotus flower 2 in foot is considered the most beautiful/rich ..... screw dat

She prob got her foot malled or blown to bits and the docs did their best to fix the situation. Show us pics of the other foot or those shoes...
