women in heels don't look more fragile. If anything, the increased height makes them look more intimidating, more powerful.

Ok so heels were orignally created for men but ever since women started wearing them, men lost their interest in them.

Second of all this is only accurate if it were about foot binding, a chinese trend that happend centuries ago

I hate girls who wear heels, it just makes me feel like I'm being tricked into finding them more attractive. The same thing happened when the "makeup tutorial" type vids blew up on youtube, every time I see a hot girl with a ton of makeup I'm always thinking she's hiding something.

women should refrain from bathing, brushing their hair or acting in a charming manner to keep from tricking men into thinking that they're more attractive than they actually are, imho :)

>>9480603
All of the things you mentioned are things required to be functional in society, wheras heavy makeup and high heels are used to accentuate already attractive features. Every girl (every human being really) needs to be bathe and be some-what sociable but a girl who's already attractive doesn't need makeup and heels and to be attractive, which is why I feel tricked when an unattractive girl tries to imitate them.

When you wear heels it's pretty much accepted that you're not going to be walking/running/standing around for long periods of time. It's mostly "how little do I need to walk before I can sit down" kind of thing.

Interesting fact ;Women only started wearing high heels because powerful wealthy men were. This made men devalue high heels because women made them look "effeminate".

glad to see a lot of guys ITT don't even care for heels. i'm 5'1 so naturally i own a few pairs of heels just so i can wear certain clothes + add a little height. but i have never been able to wear them for longer than an hour. by then i'm in pure agony. even with gel insoles. idk how women can do that to themselves every day.

i do like the aesthetics of high heels though personally.

I don't find heels appealing in the least. They destroy women's feet and interfere with natural gait, leading to joint and locomotion problems in the long run. And on top of that, they just look clumsy and stupid.

Ugh. Heels were created for men originally. Persians invented the heeled shoe to make it easier to ride horses standing up, for going in to battle. I think this happened in the 3rd century, but I'm not 100%. In the middle ages, it became popular for Europeans to copy the styles from the middle east. Then, in about the 18th century, it became fashionable for women to copy elements of men's clothing. Now, we have women falsely claiming that heels were invented to sexualize them.
