Women don't wear elevated shoes for fashion. Fashion is merely the excuse.

Many women have a feeling of basic inferiority because they don't measure up. The fact is when compared to men the average woman is short.

They rationalize that fashionable heels obliterate the inferiority.

At five-ten, I'm taller than 75% of the men I run into. Yet I routinely wear four-inch heels.

For some that may be true

I think each gal is different

I am 5'7 so my height is fine

I like the sleek way they

make my legs look

Some may. I have a sneaking suspicion there are other reasons as well!

I'm going to assume you really were just trying to start trouble with this one, so I'll be nice.

I am taller than most men (unless, of course, I would have the good fortune to be in a room with an NFL football team),and I still wear high heels. Pumps, boots, stilettos, wedges, you name it, I wear it. Flats are ugly.

Of course I mostly wear flip flops and tennis shoes, or no shoes at all.

But if I am gonna dress up to look nice or cool, I will not hesitate to be taller than my husband. Which he hates. But I don't care.

Bert, old buddy, old pal...:-)

Women that feel inferior to men cut their hair short, wear flannel shirts and dirty sneakers.

Women that wear heels do so because they love men, and want their attention. Lesbians who force themselves into competition with men will never find themselves on a pedestal, no matter how comfortable their shoes.

Huh!?

Are you trying to tell me that I'm dumb or that I'm stupid - I can't tell - cause my feet hurt too much!

XOXO
