China has been a Feudal society for almost 3000years. As per the sayings of Confucian women are inferior to men .They always need to obey someone.Before the marriage they obey father , after the marriage they obey the husband & during widowhood they follow their sons.They were not allowed for the marriage with choice. Divorce & re- marriage for woman was not allowed at all.To please the husband & bear the children was the main responsibility of woman.Foot binding of woman is an example of subservience .During Ming & Qing dynasties woman had to bind their feet to get husband.
