So the other day, I went out to get myself some formal wear for a career fair I am going to this week.

I was in a department store, getting shoes (man shoes because I still present as male in public) but I just had an urge to go try on a pair of heels. I've had this feeling dozens of times before, but this day I actually said 'screw it. I'm trying on some heels'. I found a pair, they fit perfectly, and I felt better than I ever did before in my life. I didn't buy them (as much as I wanted to) because I was a little short on money, but then it got me thinking that next time, maybe I will buy a cute pair of heels.

So I was just curious: How did it feel the first time you wore high heels (or some other clothes) in public?

There should be no no maybe about it next time buy yourself a pair of heels girl do yourself a favor make sure that they are not high heels like really really high cuz I have so many pair of 3 inch heels and my ankles kill me in them.

But it made me feel free light as a feather floating in the clouds absolutely wonderful my first time that I dressed in my proper gender in public

I love wearing heels. Makes me feel so fem. I honestly don't remember my first experience. I go and try them on when I can find some in my size (13 Wide). Often my local Nordstrom Rack has some. I've bought two pairs from them.

Beware, shoes can be addictive, once you start buying them you may lose control I'm thinking of buying another shoe cabinet because I can't fit all my shoes into the existing one.
When I went out the first time in public I was quite sure I would have a chance of passing but I was still very nervous at the beginning. I almost sprained my ankle while I was hurrying to the train station in my heels. After I calmed down a little it was a fantastic experience and it felt surprisingly natural.

Hello JannaLM

I find wearing heels to be one of the more affirming signs of my femininity and it all has always felt so exciting.

I recall my first public walk in heels and it felt so exhilaring. Each step is pure pleasure!

That's what I usually feel when I go out wearing high heels but after a few hours long shopping trip it's more like "Each step is pure pain!"

That is so true it always starts out the most pleasurable experience and then turns into the most painful experience but you still love every second of it because it's you

Last year, I bought online some more sensible 'block heels' only 2.5" high - black suede ankle boots, for going out with rather than posing at home. First time I wore them felt great, though they took some getting used to when walking on solid concrete. After a few times wearing them, one local lady said she loved them & would wear them herself!

Fast forward to this weekend, I went out to a local bar wearing the boots, girls jeans with subtle flower embroidery, a girls see-through blouse over a female tank tee, eye-liner & nail polish. Nobody got upset if they even noticed that much.

It's all good, as I add a little bit more each time ;-) xoxo

The thickness of heel, rather than the height, mostly determines how much comfortable they are to walk on. Stiletto heels can be painful to walk on, but block heels and wedge sandals are easy.

Omg yes I have a pair of believe they're between 3 and 5 in thigh high leather stilettos I can't walk in them I'm lucky if I can stand in them the back is so thin now this is a question that I'm hoping maybe one of you can answer are we supposed to walk on our balls of our feet or on our heels or do we do both evenly because I do have a little trouble figuring that out usually I do heel first when I step down

Wearing heels takes practice.  You can easy see watching women which ones are comfortable in heels, they move smoothly and have good balance as they walk.  Buy a comfortable pair not real high, 2-3 in to start and wear them around the house for a few days before going out in public.

Walking on both balls and heels will be comfortable. I have ordered the following ones yesterday, and the heel height (13 cm = 5 inch) does not cause so much problem, owing to the bulky heels and platforms.

I've never worn a pair of heels before but I have watched plenty of videos about walking in them. They all say heel to toe is the proper way to walk in heels regardless of heel style. I really want to get a pair and learn to walk in them. For me, heels and a dress are my idea of the perfect feminine moment. Love and faith.

Well that's good to know because I do walk heel-to-toe and if you go for heels I would definitely do like everybody on here to saying go for thick heels first because they provide a lot more stability and are so much easier to walk in

Your boots do not have platforms and I guess it can be painful to walk in them.

I also have ordered the following one, which have thick platforms.

See I thought heels were the platforms but you really could possibly explain exactly what platforms are to me and I'm sure some of the other ladies here would like to know if they don't LOL please

Haha! I wear heels at work, 14 hours a day five days a week. Definitely affirming, especially when you master the stride! I look forward to taking them off and switching out for my sneakers when I head home.

Trim those toe nails! Long nails hurt in heels and can painfully break.

Go buy those heels, and most stores can order larger sizes if they are available. I am lucky to fit a 10W.
