"Brigitte" Kwan (Traditional Chinese: 関秀華; Pinyin: Guān Xìuhuá) was born in Canton, China. Kwan was one of the pioneer Chinese feminists who protested the practice of foot binding (, literally "bound feet") and advocated the rights of women in Imperial China. Of Manchu aristocratic lineage, Kwan was born as to an aristocratic family, one of a mixed set of fraternal twins, at the turn of the 20th century. == Early life == Kwan was of the ruling Manchu class with mandarin official ancestors, including Guan Peiyuan, a peer of Kang Youwei. At a young age, she received an education in Confucian Chinese classics, a rarity for women of the times, who were not traditionally allowed access to education.〔She rebelled against a traditional patriarchal system of control on women in Qing China〕 Although women of the Han Chinese aristocracy and upper bourgeoisie had their feet bound as infants, the female Manchu aristocrats did not conform to this custom, as they exercised greater political power in the society than Han Chinese women did. Not only were Kwan's feet not bound, but she started a movement to encourage Han Chinese women to refrain from the practice in later generations.
