What a funny little story. Point made. I don’t wear heels very often, but I enjoy wearing them occasionally. Of course, I always wear them with a long skirt so that they are modest. Kitten heels are great for that added “girliness” but not loads of height.

I laughed about your story, but that definitely makes the point. High-heels aren’t just immodest. They’re also downright dangerous and uncomfortable.

Some women wear heels because they make their feet look smaller. It's hard to pull off flats when you have feet that are big in proportion to the rest of you --- unless you don't mind having men say, "Hey, I like your boats/skis". Rebeccas last blog post..What kind of feminist is THAT?!

Kitten heels are so cute! Rachel, I so want to go shopping with you right now. :)

I own a pair of 3 inchers which I adore. I actually wore them to a job intervew in May where part of the icebreaker was doing a little dance. It was, um… interesting. But I love those shoes! They’re really the only heels I ever wear, I’m usually in flats. (Hubs is 1/2″ taller than me and a little sensitive about it…) But I love when I get the chance to wear them.

My mom actually can’t wear flats anymore. She wore 2″ and 3″ heels for so many years, her achilles tendon shortened and it hurts her to have her feet flat. Craziness!

I’m pretty sure it’s something you’d have to work up– especially because of the fact that you’d not only have to practice your balance, but your muscles and tendons would have to get used to it.

I kept looking for a survey I read once that heels were the #1 accessory that men thought made women look sexy, but I couldn’t find it.

Pretty crazy.

Another style for women who like to wear heels (for the femininity) would be the kitten heel. It's a very small heel (less than an inch, I think) but you still get to wear a pretty little shoe that makes you feel feminine. I pretty much avoid heels at all costs, but not for modesty - I hate my feet being uncomfortable! The only place you will see me in heels is a wedding or formal/professional affair, and even in those situations I usually go with kitten. I don't see how anyone walks in 3 inch stilettos!

I just totally have to add this link:

Too funny.

Another dimension to heels is that they make us feel more feminine and petite. Take a look at the picture at this link: http://z.about.com/d/shoes/1/0/H/f/high_heels_long_skirts.jpg There’s nothing tight, short, or revealing about her skirt, but the outfit just wouldn’t be nearly as cute if she were wearing flats.
