good for you trevor.... wished my wife was as understanding...... i have to say though.... once you done it once and liked it.... it must be hard to turn it off and say you don't ever do it again.... but at least you had the chance to be completely out in the public fully dressed.....

would wear as often as i can..... maybe not just heels but just be able to have all the styles to choose from is fantastic..... i've currently have a huge collection of heels now.... i can't imagine how many more i would have if I could actually wear them out in public on a daily basis....

gday all... i'm obviously in Australia.... Sydney infact... happy to chat to anyone interested on all things heels, shopping tips etc

that's so cool heelguy and your gf sounds amazing..... wish i am as comfortable wearing heels with jeans out in public as you are..... or heels with anything in public i'm still hot and cold, sometimes I'm "relatively" comfortable out at night and other times i'm extremely anxious and can't go through with plans..... oh well....

i just saw the episode.... as much as i agree with most of you that his statement of anything over 2" is just gay..... the fact that he's pushing the general acceptable heel height to 2" is pretty cool..... (that is for those who care about the "norm" or being "acceptable").... I'm sure Gok himself probably have seen many male wearing heels greater then 2"..... I'm not sure how strategic his thinking is.... but to me... having someone like Gok saying that 2" is acceptable and anything higher is Gay on a national UK show... mean that any male (even extremely masculine or narrow minded ones) having seen it will start to think that 2" heels for guys are fine.... as long as it's not over 2", they should have no problem with it in their inner narrow mindless... Sure it doesn't help me with wanting to wear my 5" highs heels... but at least now for some people, they will be more comfortable wearing 2" heels in everyday life, where as before they may be slightly conscious about people questioning the height..... or someone who would never look at shoes with a 2" heel before will now start wearing them because they are not considered "gay".... I suppose, one step at a time, 1 inch at a time

happyinheels: i definitely agree with you that we all have our individual way of expressing ourself through what we wear..... I suppose I was more shock (maybe shock is too strong a word) that there are so many on this forum that would absolutely draw the line at wearing high heels and nothing else that is traditionally associated as feminine because they say they don't want to be feminine or even to the point that it's crazy for us (or me) to want to do so.... when I associate the heels as a much more feminine symbol than a lot of the other items...... but each to their own i suppose.....

it's actually funny when you think about it..... gay guys are obviously attracted to guys and maybe a quality they are attracted to is the masculinity and style etc... and thus they are more likely to dress more masculine to attract other gay guys..... this is my theory as to why so many gay guys are gym junkie and extremely buffed

i used to hide my heels in the boot of my car......

looks like she found a whole stash of his magazines too lol

love flats.... love heels.... love them both

i like wearing skinny jeans and longish singlet tops...... i feel that this gives a hint of femininity bit it is still masculine (probably because I'm wearing it and my shoulders are board and have a solid frame)...... my hair is getting quite long now and I like it that way.... but whenever I go out with heels, somehow I always feel like a quick shave just to clean up the facial hair..... someone ask me recently whether I was going for the russell brand look..... i answered maybe without really knowing what that meant.... have since looked up russell brand and yes, I guess maybe he have copied my look lol

zepan - how have you been mate.... it's been awhile since we've bumped into each other online....

hey guys.... for a while there I felt quite alone in this.... with a majority of you all only interested in heels and no other female shoes.... then the last few replies came through making me less lonely..... i find it interesting how even we all have a similar interest, the actual interest may be quite different in why and how we are/got interested..... i've always associated heels (as much as I want it to be accepted as a part of the male wardrobe) as extremely feminine and thus cannot understand why some members here on the forum are happy to discuss heels and wearing them but draw a line when discussion moves to other feminine attire..... that never made sense to me, but i guess judging from a lot of the response to this thread, everyone must have a different association to what heels represent.....

well done mate.... more outings to come i hope

quite a fair few years ago when I don't get any time by myself and thus does not get to wear heels much, i slept in my heels intentionally while on a business trip.... just to extend the time i get to have my heels on...... but apart from that one trip, i've not slept with my heels on intentionally since (have fallen asleep in front of the tv with it on a few times tho .... i suppose this is mainly due to having a bit more time/opportunity to wear heels now....

u the man heelguy....... now let me find a shopping centre i can go to and do the same thing...... maybe we can grab a coffee together lol

Personally, my initial fascination/attraction or the desire or want to wear was heels only.... i suppose if I can only have 1 pair of alternative footwear (ie non male classified shoes), I might as well go the extreme and buy and own and wear the highest pair of heels possible...... However, over time, along with fashion trends and what not, I have open my love to all type of female classified footwear, be it ballet flats to simple sandals/thongs to kitten heels, to sports/leisure shoes...... I find that my joy and excitement in being able to wear any of them (in particular in public) to be similar, well probably not as strong as wearing a 5 inch pair of stilettos heels/boots, but still a great (excitement) feeling to be walking around in a pair of ballet flats or casual shoes which were obviously designed for females...... As much as heels is the biggest attraction to me, i find that it may be because it is due to the fact that it is so obviously feminine.... even though I like to think that if it is common place for male to wear them, i would still love them for their style...... Here's the question...... do you only like heels and only want to wear heels because they are heels? or is it because they have a femininity associated with it, or is it because they are taboo for male to wear, or do you (like me) like wearing anything that you know was designed for females (I also love wearing female jeans and tops but that's for another thread).....

i have to say i don't normally wear hosiery either.... maybe i should be judging from the response on here.... i just like the look of flesh in between my skinny jeans and the heels (pumps) or ballet flats.... may be i gotta get some pop socks....

fantastic news.... i've been going round in girls skinny jeans for a while and lately added a fair few girls singlet tops as well..... really hope this catches on more and more and extend to the heels!!

wood&metal.... i often ponder the same things but kinda came to the decision that friends often come in different categories and not everything has to be shared with everyone and still be considered a close friends of mine or to them...... just because someone know that i like heels doesn't make them a close friend.... people here on the boards know each other (kinda off) and that we all love heels but that doesn't automatically mean that they are your best friend.... i suppose i would think of a close friend as someone who will accept you no matter what (even if they don't know about it).... put the shoe on the other foot (i know... cheap pun).... if a friend come to you and tell you something that is out of norm and normally not acceptable by your standards (doesnt have to be the extreme here).... is your first reaction to accept them or to never be seen with them again? if it is the later, then I would think that you don't consider them a close/good friend.... i suppose what i'm saying is, a true friend will be supportive of you no matter when they find out... and i don't think the issue is whether you decide to share it with them up front or not.... however, i think the bigger issue with not sharing is probably with spouse/kids etc... Johnieheel... i really look up to you in the fact that your immediate family (and everyone else) know about this part of your life..... i can't seem to do it and i'm feeling extremely guity about this (rather than with not sharing with friends).... i'm actually quite worried about them finding out either via other people or walk in on me when i have them on or find my hiding spots etc... to me, that may be even worse then being up front with them... but at the same time, i'm finding it extremely hard to be up front (and can't decide whether I want to or not..... eg kids are young, society pressure etc - the usual stuff)....

wow wow wow malinheels.... i wish i was in Melb so that i could meet up with both you and heelguy!!! awesome outings..... and many more to come....

totally agree... as long as they look great... who cares how high or low they are

To be honest...I'm not too bothered about technicalities. Just so long as they ARE high, look fab, and I feel sexy in them! :-)

i love the sandal boots, i love them on women, somehow i'm not loving them on me...... i think i'm just not a fan of my own toes......

that's fantastic mate.... i think my mum kinda know my love for heels from way back but it's just an undiscussed thing.... good for you..... also, regarding your outfit with the heels.... i think that looks great and it's a fine example how heels should be easily incorporated to the male waldrobe.... i especially love the pairing with the snakeskin heels....
