I am what I am! I do not care about anyone else's opinion nor do I seek approval on how I should dress or behave.

You sound like a pure, strict individualist to me. And, that is good to a point. However, even the staunchest, most ardent individualists' behavior and conduct is governed by their fellow citizens to one degree or another. See how forgiving your fellow citizens are if they observe your behavior as being "out of bounds."

Really not very attractive, is it?

Don't think i'll get away with it outside though !!

Why not try?

Love the color. They're 100% feminine and very seductive. I Wouldn't want to ruin them by wearing them out on the street (especially if it is raining)

If I remember correctly, didn't several hhplace members go to last years ball (or was it the year before last?). Anyway, I think I remember reading some comments here that were posted by Dr. Shoe, Francis, Kneehighs, or one of the other "notable" member mentioning that they attended.

Although these numbers are encouraging and do indicate the number of men wearing heels is increasing with time, i know that surveys and statistics can be "skewed" to show almost anything the people taking the survey want to show. Where did you get these figures? It is important to know how many people participated in the surveys, what questions were asked and how they were worded. Not that I don't believe that the results are acurate.

I agree. The first pair is the pair that I would buy for wearing in public.

Talk about "girly shoes," They're great and so femine looking. I bet you do have fun when wearing them.

More power to you! If you want to wear your heels in full view of society, then go for it. I do. However, at the same time, under the laws, rules and regulations under which today's society operates, anyone that walks on this planet along side of you has the identical right to disapprove of your dress.

That being said, it is my opinion -- and only an opinion -- that the best way to change customs is to expose new ideas to the general public. The larger number of men that wear heels in public, and the more often they are viewed by those around them, the sooner the concept of heels worn by men will become a "non-issue" as evidenced by men wearing earrings, bracelets and necklaces.

Why would anyone want to wear shoes that hurt their feet?

she still has a life as a female, it is not defined by what she wears.

I wouldn't know what she has since I don't know her personally. (and not particularly interested, either)

methinks Ellen's inability to walk in heels is greatly exaggerate. It's hard to believe that, even though she appears to wear noting but slacks, sweaters, shirts and tennis shoes, she's never worn heels before -- afterall, she did have a life as a female before she adopted her manish manner of dress and her lesbian sexuality became widely known .
