Is This Modest?

MInTheGap: The skirt length is a bit too short, but the jacket is fine, and the layering seems to be okay from what I can see of it. The heels look ridiculously high!

Foy: Looks good to me. I’d like to see the books moved though, to get a better idea of the entire outfit. But that’s just me.

Your Turn…

I don’t know how you walk in them. Seriously, I know it takes practice. I know that it makes you feel sexier. I just can’t understand the woman that wears them all day!

Men’s Health believes a girl wearing heels is thinking:

“Is he checking out my butt?”

A funny story regarding heels. Last year my wife and I went to a Valentine’s Day banquet held at my church where they had a competition for who had the best looking legs—except it was for the guys!

They had a few men go behind a screen, take off their socks and shoes, and show their legs under the divider. When it was my turn, I decided to take advantage of what heels do to the calf muscles, and walked forward and back on my tip toes.

Needless to say, I won hands down.

I say all this because it’s no surprise to you girls that high heels effect your lower half in a way that makes your legs more attractive. That’s why they are often paired with a short skirt or tight jeans, both of which would be immodest.

Is This Modest?

High heels themselves are not immodest, as much as what they’re paired with. It’s not wrong, in my book, for a girl to help her height using heels. It’s when she decides to show off her legs in these heels that crosses the line.

I have no problem with women wearing these paired with a modest formal or something of that nature. At that point you’ve left talking about modesty and started talking about the torture you’re putting your feet through!
