    We see women wear high heels. To make their legs seem longer. This practice has risks, both short and long term.

    It is not very unlike BINDING, in JApan. IT can result in sprains, breaks and eventually debilitation and inability to walk.

    WE expect women that are heavy, and elderly to wear them.

    In one particular case, we chide a woman about cankles, and then, when her high heels cause her instability on stairs, and she accepts help, she is unqualified for the Presidency.

    So you see, these devices we foist on women, are really to hobble them in our minds. To make them delicate creatures. Look at long nails.

    And so, who is putting these lame expectations on women? My mother wont leave the house without makeup on.

    Here is one woman suffering for her high heels. They look dangerous, and indeed, I tried on my sisters high heeled slippers when I was young.

    THEY ARE DANGEROUS.

    Yeeeees? Go on, please.

    What? We do? :icon_jawdrop:

    Who the heck is this collective "we" you are talking about? Women are free to wear whatever they want, but many of them, completely and fully voluntarily, choose to wear heels because it makes them look more attractive and thus more competetive on the "mating market".

    It is a free and individual choice.

    What on Earth are you on about?

    No, no, no.

    Well, women actually like to look pretty. They like to dress up, to do their hair and paint their nails. Just look at any little girl and you will notice this.

    So, the whole point of this thread is exactly what? What ate we dupposed to discuss? A potential illegalisation of high heels, or? In that case I am absolutely against it because everyone should be free to dress however they wish.

    Usually my goals are insidious. I have an impact whether you know it or not. Just by your having thought it.

    I have been known to double drivel. But I usually don't get the penalty.

    Anything and everything has risks. High heels are as risky as tank tops.

    It is light years different from binding which is actually a limited practice in some parts of china NOT japan. Foot binding always cripples the poor woman who it is practiced on. High heels seldom cause injury.

    We do not expect anyone to wear them.

    Women do not blindly and obediently do what others expect of them. Some women choose to wear high heels some of the time others do not. I think most people both male and female would prefer not to see the obese and elderly wear high heels but it is still the wearers choice.

    Once again you do an incredibly lame job of creating an OP which is out of touch with reality. No one foists anything on women they make their own choices.

    BTW look at the shoes Hillary is wearing they are NOT high heels. HIllary needed help because she is old not because of her fashion choice

    Epic fail as always

    Why, tell me, why, am I not surprised to hear this........Lol's

    For what it's worth, all of this "We" you're talking about is actually just "YOU". I don't expect or demand that any woman wear anything, in particular. It is and has always been completely up to them, but that is something that only a man can realize, which explains........... you

    OK, you take issue with my WE. TELL ME, who is putting this imposition on women? ONLY
    PER WOMAN? There is not a global set of expectations on women? They just all GENETICALLY do girl stuff?

    You are not looking at me and you are simply making yourself look foolish.

    Having people correct an idiotic post is not having an impact much as you wish to save face by claiming it is.

    Sensible shoes are better than high heels, if you watch some fake Police shows, the Police Women are wearing high heeled shoes, no Police Officer is going to wear shoes like that because it is hard to run in them, even undercover, such footwear is a poor choice, Women look better in normal shoes anyway, in My own opinion.

    I agree.. Some designs are ankle breakers.

    Because heels lengthen the leg and lift the buttocks.

    No. I love high heels. If you try to take them, I will poke your eye out with a stiletto heel. :D

    Obviously your, uh, "preference" makes you unable to appreciate these things. Why do you even bother to inquire? This stuff is obvious to any man who cares to act and feel like a man, or additionally, any woman who cares to act and feel like a woman. The rest of you, well, we understand it's just not your thing. That's all good, but you seem like a blind guy asking what green, red or purple is all about...

    Thanks for keeping a sense of humor about all of this. I'd say, the gay dude would accurately describe her apparel, the straight dude would accurately describe how she looked, wearing that apparel. Fair enough?
