Why do Japanese girls walk "inside"? Foreign boys shook their heads

I have to admit that in addition to the beautiful scenic spots in various places that attract the attention of tourists, the naturally beautiful local women will also attract special attention. After all, everyone loves beauty. Gradually, tourists have also discovered some interesting characteristics of women from all over the world, especially in some popular tourist countries, such as Japan. Friends who have been there may have discovered that their girls seem to be a little "inner" when walking. , why is this?

Japan has been deeply influenced by our country’s culture, and most girls have grown up to be gentle and pleasant that many boys find pleasing. Many foreign single male tourists even look forward to an “affair” when they come to Japan. However, It has to be said that male tourists are quite concerned about the local girls' "inner" walking characteristics, which always makes people feel a little awkward. Even Chinese tourists with similar native cultures think so, and I think there must be something in it. Special reason.

In fact, in Japan, this special gait of girls also has a cute name, which is "pigeon step". When walking, the toes are required to be turned inward, which is what we usually call "inner eight". It is indeed like a little pigeon. It walks wobblingly, which is used to show the agility of women. Of course, in the eyes of foreign tourists, this is a bit weird. In the culture of most countries, in addition to holding in urine, Otherwise, everyone wouldn’t walk like this, right?

We can even find this phenomenon in the popular Japanese animation, which shows the popularity of this "inner eight" habit. It also shows that the local public opinion and culture is quite harsh on women. Although Japan is already one of the richest countries in Asia, compared to girls, there are no special requirements for boys. If they don’t walk in this way, they may even Being called "local girl", girls naturally have no choice but to succumb to this "tradition".

However, it is said that the formation of this phenomenon is also due to the influence of clothing. In the old days, girls wore kimonos every day. This kind of clothing has the characteristic of drooping and wrapping tightly, and people at that time wore clogs. There are many restrictions on walking, which has caused this special phenomenon, and the daily kneeling and sitting postures have made a difference in the ankle development of Japanese women over time. Even though it is not required to wear a kimono now, many girls When I walk, I feel like a "nerd".
