johnieheel Posted September 27, 2007 Posted September 27, 2007 NO! You should wear what ever makes you feel good. The ladies do. real men wear heels
Heel-Lover Posted September 27, 2007 Posted September 27, 2007 Hi, Not really possible in my opinion. If you're happy in them then they're fine. I personally think the only time a shoe is "too girly" with respect to a bloke wearing them is if the bloke can't handle them. eg. wearing heels that are beyond your ability and are too high for you to manage gracefully.
Mikey63 Posted September 27, 2007 Posted September 27, 2007 I tend to steer clear of shoes with girly tassles and/or bows, I don't really know why..... I think its mainly because they very much limit what you can wear with them and while I will wear the odd item of womens clothing, I don't wear anything thats overly girly. I like to wear women's jeans over heels, because I just can't find mens jeans in a size 30W/34L (or 30W/36L for heels). I normally wear a shirt with those or occasionally something like a womens long sleeve or 3/4 sleeve t-shirt (because womens t-shirts have a high waist which gives the illusion of longer legs). So with that in mind, very "girly" shoe's are a big no no for me. Mikey0063
luxxyheels Posted September 27, 2007 Posted September 27, 2007 I really like those! Do they come in a 13w?

luxxyheels Posted September 27, 2007 Posted September 27, 2007 Ah, I've seen that site before, and everytime I look, I drool. I think I need to start saving my pennies for some of the shoes they have there.

I use them alot.... I think some shoes can be a bit too girly at me. I stay away from bows and ribbons. Usually the plain pumps, not too pointy, are for my public ventures. I do a selection of strappy sandals for the private sessions Proudly standing in my patent High Heels

JeffB Posted September 29, 2007 Posted September 29, 2007 I've also visited the Fuss website and the stuff they have there is absolutely amazing. As for the topic itself, can a shoe be too "girly"? Well, that all depends on you and your interpretation of the tem. Some here might look upon even a plain, unadorned pump as too "girly", in fact, I've read that very thing. I have no problem with that myself since I love wearing pumps. In the end, it all depends on the person and how far he's willing to push the envelope regarding shoes. I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman!
Simcity3 Posted September 29, 2007 Author Posted September 29, 2007 You are totaly Right Jeffb http://meinheels.wordpress.com/
chris100575 Posted October 2, 2007 Posted October 2, 2007 It depends on whether you base that on your own opinion or that of others. To some even cowboy boots are too girly for guys to wear, so you're better off asking yourself. Personally I don't feel comfortable in stilettos in public, so I tend to wear my high heeled New Rocks (like in my avatar) and save the stilettos for wearing round the house. However if you like what you see in the mirror and feel confident enough there's no reason why you can't wear whatever you please. Chris
Histiletto Posted October 2, 2007 Posted October 2, 2007 YES and viva la differants! In our civilization we have certain standards to live by if we want to be socially correct. That doesn't mean these standards take into account that males have a desire to wear high heels or that females have an ability to operate in big business dealings (Governmental, Industrial, or etc.). Until society realizes the stereotypical standards do not really serve the people it supposively classifies, we will be stuck in the mind-set that men are the masculine breed of our species and the women are the feminine sect and never will the intertwain be noticed in the right context. We have been so brain-washed to consider a type of footwear has a gender classification. We have been further bombarded with the effects high heels have on the wearer and the admirer. So what! If a person wants to have a pair of heels, it is their decision -- not yours! Are you any "straighter" or "gayer" because of their decision? Are they also any "straighter" or "gayer" because of your actions. People are who they are, let them be who they are. Enjoy their differences and maybe learn something from another view. I know speaking to the choir may get some hymns.
lotsofheels Posted October 9, 2007 Posted October 9, 2007 I think they can, but it's not the heel height that determines it. I think boots rather than strappy sandles look much better on a guy even with 5-6 inch stilletto heels. On the same note, I think hoop earrings look better on guys than dangling earrings, even if they are large (5-6 inch diameter hoops). My rule of thumb is that my earrings should be the same diameter as the height of my heels and my wife heartily agrees with me.
Duck Posted October 9, 2007 Posted October 9, 2007 I think it depends how you wear it, with "normal" male type clothes strappy sandals wouldn't really look right and I think boots would be a much better fit. Iv'e never thought about heel height/earing size before but personally I think those huge loop earings look a bit silly who ever is wearing them but if you like them go for it
lotsofheels Posted October 9, 2007 Posted October 9, 2007 I don't think large hoops look any sillier than tall high heels. The point is to dress like a male but add anything else that you like the look of. To me, eye makeup, large earrings, a nose ring, and high heels fit that bill perfectly
heellovr79 Posted October 11, 2007 Posted October 11, 2007 There's no such thing as a high heel being too "girly". My personal philosophy is "The higher the heel and the more toes shown, the sexier the shoe". Black patent, open toed high heels are the best!
lotsofheels Posted October 18, 2007 Posted October 18, 2007 After reading many posts from guys who feel uneasy wearing heels in public, it occurs to me that the answer about shoes being too girly depends on the context of when you are wearing the shoes. If you are wearing them at home or dressed as a woman, then the answer is probably no. However, as in my case, I like to wear heels in public dressed as a man and in this situation, I would feel very uncomfortable wearing very feminine looking shoes. Therefore, I prefer boots with a 4-5 inch heel that is not overly narrow. Platforms and Stillettos are out for me. I have to admit though, I would love to see my wife in a pair of Pata's 7 inch ballet boots.
Guest Loveshiheels Posted October 19, 2007 Posted October 19, 2007 I don't like any shoe that has bows, or flowers on them.
Elegant Posted October 19, 2007 Posted October 19, 2007 Neither do I. I also wouldn't like too many buckles, gems and other "bling bling". What is good for a goose, can be good for any gender!
bigbadkatz Posted October 20, 2007 Posted October 20, 2007 It's the girly-ness of heels that draws me to them. Most of my heels are red or white, but I have a pink pair with metal heels. I would have to say that a pair of six-inch ankle strap sandals would be my favorite. To wear a pair of anklets with them. Either dainty gold chains, or locking steel anklets...
HappyFeat Posted October 23, 2007 Posted October 23, 2007 The shoes I tend to avoid as "too girly" for me are pink or white, but it is mainly a color thing for me. I have a ouple of pair with bows, and even get into metalics some. With the right outfit almost any show will work. But the context of the whole outfit is what is critical for me. Style is built from the ground up!
