Happy 28th. Wish we could take up a collection and drop ship your favorite drooling pumps/boots or whatever. Thanks for the input :eek:. _________________ Hi-Heels and Back-Zipper Pants Forever... <font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: azraelle on 2002-05-20 08:26 ]</font> <font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: azraelle on 2002-05-20 08:27 ]</font> <font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: azraelle on 2002-05-20 08:32 ]</font>

Hey, these kittens are kool:grin:, tho the heels don't look hi nuff 4 a comfortable arch.

2nd edit:

BTW, other than laboriously viewing the html source code of this page and copying and pasting the "img" tag and associated "gif" from some other poster with a "smiley" that you are interested in (in this case, ShockQueen and the "icon_biggrin.gif"), is there another way to put them onto your post as you are typing?

4th edit:

PS I tried to put in the

:eek

on Laurie's 15th week diary as shown in your helpful blurb under "Smiles" but that didn't appear to work, so I guess it's back to copy/paste :eek:.

I would like to know how many heel-wearing guys also have their ears pierced, and if so, one (which one)? Both? More piercings than just one in each ear? What style earrings/studs do you wear? What do the women think of them, etc? Myself--none; always wanted to try both, but for me at least, it is easier to appear in public with (chunkey) high heel boots than even the thought of pierced ears!

judging by the current sexual "misconduct" news and rumors coming out about the Catholic Church esp here in America, there may not be much of a difference!

You can also buy one of those el cheapo single use cameras and have then the pictures burnt on cd. Works fine, and those soapboxes make darn good pictures, defenitely better than a webcam

This was going to be my suggestion too!

Then....Download Photoshop 6 from Limewire (~120MB, ~9hrs w/56K) to tweak the photo down to a manageable optimized jpeg of 20-30KB instead of the ~500KB on the CD. Hope I haven't irked too many pros with the Limewire suggestion, but until I get out of college even the educational price is too steep (of course, when I DO get out, I won't be eligible for the educational price. Oh well).

At least you have good taste with the cheungsam as you probably know, I'm not a fan of 'pants'

I love the classic 50's look and heels of course. I have 3 cheungsams and they are hand embroidered silk - gorgeous!!

You, ah, wouldn't care to post a few pix of u in them (and your fav heels of course) would you??

I think women have a rather different idea of what makes a man "manly" or "masculine" than how most men would define those terms. As to specifics, I'm about as clueless as a person can get--I would VERY MUCH like to see this topic discussed (perhaps a new category?); I've even gone so far as to consider asking my fellow (female) students how they define (or "what qualities do you look for in guys") manly/masculine. All I really do know is that I hated my dad so much that I rebelled against just about everything that HE thought was manly, and I STILL ended up very much like him in so many negative ways...

I prefer women in pants, especially jeans, sorry! About the only style of dress I really dig is a "Cheong Sam" or however you spell it (I imagine Debbie(HK)may know what I'm talking about). I like vintage pants out of the 30's and 40's as well. Favorite vintage style is "Chemin de Fer" jeans, circa 1977, which sported a so-called saddle back and a modified sailor-style functional double-button front. Very classy, especially if the girl was dancing in them!

http://www.rustyzipper.com sells vintage (outer) clothing, patterns, etc, (~80% women's) from 40's on to the 90's. Links to other such sites also.

When I was in school it was ILLEGAL for a teacher to let a person know what their score waas on an IQ test. My mother was a school teacher and was able to peer at my score in the 3rd grade: 120. Have taken others, but was never curious enough to dig thru the vault to find out if I went up or down.

Terrayon, Question: Do the high schools in Canada have mandatory testing at the end of the grade 12 or 13 in order to get a diploma? Such testing doesn't exist in most US school systems, that I know of. Thanx, "AJ" (Azraelle)

Bert

Trouble is that women feel their confidences betrayed when they find out you have been hiding something for however many years (and they WILL find out!); maybe they're more naturally suspicious than men? Anyway, the almost universal followup in their mind is "If he has been hiding this so well all these years, what ELSE has he hidden from me?" It just doesn't help a relationship at all to hide a secret like wearing high heels.

But does your tackle really fit in there? I would have thought it hangs out round the edges...

It depends on the cut, and the fabric, and how cheaply they are made--best if you get a pair that is ~90% nylon, 10% Lycra; I like hi-cut (French-cut?) or Thongs.

I graduated in 1970. By then, the "Beatle Boots" hi-heels for guys fad was almost over. In Junior High (grades 7-9 in America), I wore a pair of black suede boots, aproximately 2-1/8" at back (most of us measured at the front of the heel at the time, e.g. about 1-1/2"), that were made for guys--nearly everyone was wearing them! I remember one guy in 8th grade that had his 2" heels (measured at the front of the heel) raised to 3"(maybe 4" at back?). He only wore them one day, though--must have been REALLY uncomfortable for him! My brother had a pair of what were known in 1962 as "Spanish Boots" that he wore in 12th grade, with aprox 2" heels at back.

I originally got the idea to make buttonholes horizontally from noticing that many women's blouses had them, and I thought they looked, well, cool, Inga. I honestly never thought about the why that you refer to until just now!!! Believe it or not. Thanx for the insight! _________________ Hi-Heels and Back-Zipper Pants Forever... <font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: azraelle on 2002-05-16 12:50 ]</font>

Having found, unfortunately after my divorce, that relationships with Significant Others are the most precious commodity on the planet, were I to find another lady of my dreams, especially one that liked to wear heels, and she were to say to me "get rid of your heels if you want this to seriously continue", getting rid of my heels would be a no-brainer! It should have been a no-brainer when I was married (to the girl of my dreams), but I digress. "Kicking against the pricks", as it were, harms only oneself.

spike heels and tite boot cut jeans go very well together on a shapely lady _________________ Hi-Heels and Back-Zipper Pants Forever... <font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: azraelle on 2002-05-14 13:40 ]</font>

(my opinion only) It will have to be someone famous worldwide that embraces it. Ex-1: In 18th century it was accepted atire for men to wear fuschia or purple silk waistcoats, breeches, moderately high heels, lace blouses, etc. Then in early 19th century, the crown prince of England started wearing black...and then everyone else started wearing black. Ex-2: Up until when Ronald Reagan was elected President, it was the published opinion of all the "Dress for Success" experts that you should NEVER wear brown if you wanted to attain upper management in your career. Then Ronald Reagan started wearing brown suits, and suddenly it was now alright to wear brown and be successful. _________________ Hi-Heels and Back-Zipper Pants Forever... <font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: azraelle on 2002-05-14 13:14 ]</font>

Thanks Tarayon and Anagram. You are SOOOO lucky, Calv to have feet that small, and I LOVE the blade boots in the bottom left of your first picture. Also covet your gathered sleeve shirt.

I wonder if it might have been company policy at one time to hire a certain type of individual to manage Naturalizer Shoe stores. I remember a small Naturalizer store in one of the malls in Las Vegas about 15 years ago--the only person I ever saw in there was a middle age guy who apparently saw it as his duty to chase out every male that did more than a quick pass through--judging from how he treated me, and one other guy later on. He wasn't too gifted with the women customers either, so I don't think he was a Womens' foot fetishist either. _________________ Hi-Heels and Back-Zipper Pants Forever... <font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: azraelle on 2002-05-11 08:11 ]</font>

pardon my ignorance, but how does one go about posting a photo as a reply? I know html but haven't got a clue how you all do it.

yO tERaYoN: My allcaps was on, sorry. Are You perhaps talking about B*witched, Back Street Boys, Christina Aguilara, or Britney Spears? Or maybe the Corrs? They all have something worth listening to, some more than others.

I spent several years in the US Army as a "Chemical Officer" (Nuclear, Biological and Chemical Warfare Defense, actually). Additionally I earned my BS degree in agricultural pest management (read pesticide technology). Finally, I spent nearly 13 years at the US Nuclear (bomb) Test Facility in Nevada as a Radiation Control Technician. That said, one of the types of bombs that the US tested before the 1963 test ban treaty made open-air testing illegal, was a conventional explosive bomb encased in plutonium. It doesn't go nuclear, it just spreads lethal plutonium particles all over the place, especially when exploded at about 5000 ft above the surface. No need to worry about access to water reservoirs... And then there's so-called nerve gas. The fact is that Temik, Parathion (these were the baddies in 1981 when I got my degree, no doubt worse ones are in use now), etc, all very dangerous and LEGAL-for-agricultural-use pesticides kill bugs, and people, in exactly the same way as Sarin, the prototypic nerve agent. Sarin is preferred to insecticide because it's minimum lethal dose is about 1/10 that of Parathion, or 1/4 that of Temik. But the lethal dose of Temik is only 0.4mg per kg of body weight, so a sufficient quantity would make a VERY effective poor terrorist's nerve weapon... and you don't even have to spread it on the water--you could spray it into the ventillation system of any large building (Grand Central Station, anyone?). The point is 9/11 was a wake up call to Americans that yes, it CAN happen here, maybe it pulled some people's heads out of the sand to have to admit terrorism is everybody's problem, not just Them over There! _________________ Hi-Heels and Back-Zipper Pants Forever... <font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: azraelle on 2002-05-09 08:39 ]</font>

A boot which fits perfectly on the instep and the vamp with a little room round the toes. Around the ankle bone with zip, about 4.5 inch heel and an arch that matched mine. Black Leather that was soft but didn't stretch with soft kidskin lining and padding all along the sole. Such a boot would be heaven to wear. I have several that match in some departments, but no one that fits every criterion.

Make it with narrow chunky heels and a 3/4" platform, in dark red or kelly green suede (with suede covering the heels and platforms), just under the knee in height, cut to fit my calves exactly without the disgusting stretch panels or grooves.

A few years ago, the governor of Arizona forced a change in the prison uniform from striped coveralls to Hot Pink coveralls. A great many men would find this to be a fate worse than death! He may also have been the one that instituted a program for hard timers to be housed in WW-II style army tents. Don't know what became of that one, tho.
