Heels, love or hate them?

[YellowDaisy]

i like them, but i'm tall as well. i'm 5'11, which is why i stick with flats.

Well . . . I love heels on girls. 

Actually, I'm quite fond of heels. I do like to wear them occasionally, but I'd much rather see another girl in them because I find heels kind of sexy.
It really depends. If they're like wedges and they're not all that girly, sure I'll wear them, but I'd have be wearing something a bit more masculine with them.

I'm blessed with size 7 uk...or 40 uk feets...

Which means I can get Jimmy choo and Manalo B's to fit....

But only for key occasions not prancing down Andrassy ut, or 5th of an evening....well okay I did but only post supper...lol

And then only a wee way till grabbing a cab....

Killer shoes are for display....not trekking in.....surely?

Love Love Love Heels.

Although I do keep a pair of flats in the car for driving. I also have small feet, size seven.

AUGH, my footses!

I wore heels out today. Pebbles can attest to how ridiculous this was. I started out pretty awkwardly - it's been a while since I practised, and that was indoors. I remembered advice from countless places, though - walk with your hips, heel-toe, shoulders back - and got a nice rhythm going. I loved this bit! If you'd asked me how I feel about heels I'd have beamed at you during this time.

10 minutes around the town centre and my feet might as well have been aflame. I have quite a chunky 'knuckle' on both big toes, which has caused me problem with mens' shoes in the past too. That does not enjoy being rubbed against the rim of a court heel. My toes were getting squished as gravity conspired to slide me back to a flat walking position, and the middle of my sole got rubbed as a result. Basically, I find that heels hurt bits of my feet I never knew could hurt before.

I may resign myself to being a 'heel appreciator'.

I absolutely love heels and would wear them much more often and out publicly if I had the confidence to do so.  My favorites are all 5".

for a few years I was a regular on a chatroom with one person who claimed to be able to drive and walk miles in 6inch heels. We all doubted it but had no way of finding the truth.
I've had ankle surgery from old accident but I can manage 3 inch heels all day usually.

2.5-3 inch heels are comfortable and also very effective in emphasizing leg lines. However, some vanity sometimes entices me to wear > 4-inch heels that allow hardly me to walk for >1 hour.

Yesterday I wore 2.5 inch high heels sandales, and I could even dance in a bar.

Hate em Lol Cant walk in them and im 5'7..i like to stay that height !!

[Lacey Lynne]

I'll take the flat sandals myself, but I am not particular about what someone else does. 

See Kaelin's picture here?  Sandals like that are exactly what I like to wear myself.  My gender counselor said that I should wear heels and said that I have the legs for them and such.  So, why don't I?  One, I'm dressing androgynously now and am not yet even part-time, though I'm about to be soon, thanks to Janet Lynn!      Also, I'd be clocked in an Oregon hearbeat if I wore heels.   

If I was younger, then, heck yes, I'd so wear them!   

[LilDoberman]

I only wear heels about 3 times a year and I hate every second of it.  They hurt!  I have yet to find a pair that I can stand to wear for more than an hour without wanting to sit down and hurl them out the nearest window.

The higher the better.

I love the way heels look on ladies, but at the same time don't understand why they go through so much discomfort just to wear them.
According to some I ask it is because they are indoctrinated my males into wearing them.... right.

If I want to be completely honest I have to admit that I wore a pair of heels a couple of years ago. It is a long story, and in short it was because a female coursemate wanted to see if I could fly an aircraft (simulator obviously) wearing heels. I agreed if she would provide the shoes.
Walking in them was no problem, walking down stairs however was more difficult and running proved to be impossible. After an hour or so in the sim they started to hurt, but this may be because they were too small. In the end flying an aircraft proved to be very possible when wearing heels, it is just something you need to get used to (But I rather do it barefeet).

Why do women torture themselves this much?

Why do women torture themselves this much?

...cause we love the way they look.

[Erikka]

I love heels!   Maybe less than 3 inches for now, higher than that I cannot balance myself

[carolinejeo]

I love them. I never ever had a problem with them, took to them like a duck to water.

I'd wear them all the time if it were practical

I loved them back when I was cd-ing around 8 years old and wasn't so tall as now. The future only holds me flats I'm afraid

I'm 6'2" and thought I'd either stay with flats or at the most a 1" wedge... But yesterday I got adventurous and bought a pair of black peep toes with 2-1/2" heals 

The sale was just to good to pass up 

Besides, my B-Day is next month and I need more than one pair of women's shoes  and I'm sure I can find other good excuses to justify spending the money

Whenever I wear bootcut jeans, I desire to wear heels.

Today I did not have many long trousers, and I picked a pair of black bootcut jeans to attend a wedding ceremony. I picked a pair of brown high heels, although I did not feel strongly to present myself as a woman. It was just to match with bootcut jeans.

A problem was that nobody mentioned my wearing heels. It was crowded, but ny colleagues, old friends, female college students... Nobody even joked about it. One guy just said like you look pretty today. Some strange people in the wedding hall just watched me.

No thrill with heels any more.
