A woman shows her bound feet in Weining County, Southwest China’s Guizhou Province, April 19, 2017. Foot binding, the cruel practice of mutilating the feet of young girls, was once pervasive in China and seen as a show of beauty. Feet altered by binding were called lotus feet. It has since been outlawed, and in remote villages in Weining elderly women in their 80s are some of the last group to have had their feet bound. (Photo/VCG)
