Hi pyracantha. Welcome to HH Place, hope you enjoy it! You need to post 5 times in order to be able to have an avatar.

Welcome to HHPlace Eggnog. I am sure you will enjoy it here. I love heavy metal too but mostly the early bands (Deep Purple etc.).

I must admit it does set you thinking. I think one of my triggers was when I was in primary school my regular teacher went off on maternity leave and we had a substitute teacher. She was always well dressed in a pencil skirt stockings and really high heels. I cannot give you the height but she was definitely on her toes all the time. As a child of 10 and chatting to my classmates we were just amazed, but it crossed my mind that she looked fantastic ( I didn't really know why at this stage). I must admit I always think of her with real affection and always wondered how she could wear such footwear. Definitely one of my triggers. I'll have to think a little more to find other areas.

I am recently divorced from a 12 year marriage with a lady that always wore trainers and flats. After many a conversation about heels she was never really interested so we decided that enough was enough! I must admit it is pretty scary to be on my own and would love to meet a like minded person where I could be myself. All I can say is now I am training more than ever to get into my new 7 inch heels. I know it will take a few months but I know that i will do it! So I agree if you are not happy with your relationship then you must take the plunge and by scary single!! It has only been a month but I have decided that loneliness is better than not being happy in a relationship. Now to improve the mood I am going to find a lady that wears high heels and will encourage me to wear my heels out of the house. It is pretty specialised but she must be out there! Optimism is a good cure after a heart stopping divorce.

Just looked at the Andrews Heels Site and the discussion for high heels.

Quote:

They tone calf and thigh muscles

Jason Henry, a London-based fitness trainer, says walking in heels alters your centre of gravity, training your legs to produce muscle, especially in the calves and thighs.

'Essentially, in heels, you are doing what amounts to a full day of calf raises, adding definition to the shape of your legs,' he says.

'However, the excessive wearing of heels can permanently shorten your calf muscles. To avoid strain, you shouldn't walk more then two miles at a time in heels, and you should keep heel height to under two inches.'

They improve circulation in the legs

For people who suffer poor circulation and are prone to swollen ankles, a shoe with a slight heel (around 1in) can boost the amount of blood and tissue fluid that is returned from the legs to the upper body.

'Blood and tissue fluid is returned to the heart through veins, which are squeezed and stimulated by surrounding muscle,' explains osteopath Gavin Burt. 'Heeled shoes stimulate this system by tightening leg muscles, so may be good for those with a sluggish circulation.'

They may ease low-back problems

Back specialists argue that modest heels (about 11/2in) can improve alignment of the lower back, reducing the risk of low back pain. 'Some people have a spine that is, literally, too straight,' says independent massage therapist Jan Fielding. 'They lack a natural curve in the low back, causing muscular tension and pain. For these people, wearing heels can restore a healthy curve and so ease tension.'

Sorry about the copy but could not see how to pinpoint the page!

Does anyone know whether these claims are true or false? Or had any experience.

Not sure whether this is the right place to put this but I feel it is a general chat matter.

I must admit my calves are always very tight when i have spent a whole day in my stilettoes and it feels just as good as going to the gym!!!

I had knee recon surgery 10 years ago and it was always a problem even after extensive physio and weight training, but wearing high heels has eased the problem and now after two years my physio cannot believe the change. (She doesn't know about the heels!!)

fiddler1307, Love those boots and the laces really make them that bit different. Would love a pair in white!

Great legs and shoes as usual! Those red pumps are fantastic, I wont a pair!!

Just got in from work and slipped my 5.5 Leopards on with trousers.

Jez, Some lovely boots you have there and very stylish. Love the red dress goes well with the boots!

Hi Roz, Hope you are okay. As long as you are okay who cares about the shoes you can always buy two more to replace them. One to replace and the other to make you feel better!!

Great shoes, Radiodave!
