Torture or Hobby?


Parents in China thought that beauty was having small feet. Bending their feet in to half of their regular foot size. Rapping ribbons around their tiny new sized feet, to stop the growing of them. Being able to have small feet, and to wear very small shoes, meant to parents that they would marry someone rich. Disgusting right? You can’t really stop feet from growing.

In the U.S, I would say makeup, and to a lot of people, a lot of makeup. Having a lot of makeup to a lot of girls is beauty, but it is just plain gross. I know that what I think is beauty in your natural self. A lot of parents believe that natural beauty is the best. The significance of the title, Ribbons, Stacy Dancing, they all are very important in this story. Ribbons, for “Paw-Paw” means torture. For Stacy, it means dancing, and her favorite thing to do.
