Do you like high heels?

High heels. My first impression when I saw high heels as a child was that I thought they were cool and nice shoes. I think every woman will find it easy to wear it. But I've tried it almost so many times that I easily fall for it. Yes, I wonder how that woman can be comfortable in high heels? Even though I'm a woman, I don't like it. How about you, do you like high heels?

I was never able to wear very high heels . . . I am on the very short side, so actually it looks quite silly on me. I did wear maybe 2 inches at the most - and I loved the look of them. But wearing them for hours made my feet hurt - and sometimes I would end up with blisters. After I had kids, I didn't care to wear heels because they were impractical. Now, I have one bad knee, so I can't wear them at all . . . I can find comfortable but stylish shoes that are flat - and that's fine with me .

Actually,high heels are uncomfortable for women,the advantage is to increase charm of women,and highlight figure of women.

I don’t wear high heels; one, because I’m 5’11, and two, I stick to different kind of heels. My last set of shoes have block heels.

Yes, of course it's beautiful to be tall, but I think it's uncomfortable to wear.

I would be lying if I said women don't look elegant in them. Maybe we are programmed to think of women beautiful with those high heels. However, I have never mastered the art of walking in them, without spraining my ankles. So I have always found excuses like the road was uneven, the heel was not designed well, or somebody pushed me. Truth is that I never learned how to balance me on them. LOL

@TheHorse Legs look nicer when you wear high heel and also some dresses look more elegant if you wear them with high heels. I had so much the habit to wear high heels in Milan, I could run to catch a bus in high heels.

What do you like about high heels? I see them as torture devices, to keep women in line.

As a male I would not wear high heels. But it is amazing how females can walk on high heel shoes.

No, I do not like them. I was never able to learn to walk on them as I have always had weak ankles. I twisted my ankles a lot from childhood until middle adulthood. Many women think they are beautiful and make them look good. But they are horrible for the feet, legs and back. If I had my wish, going barefooted would be acceptable everywhere. I actually need flats or low heeled shoes to keep my balance. But I walk the best when I am barefooted.

@astutimeliana723 I spent my entire life barefoot as much as possible from childhood. Most places here do not have issues with glass or nails, but it can happen. We just know where not to go. Feet get hardened and tough so it is easier and not so painful if walking on stones. Now that I am old, my feet are no longer tough on the bottom, but oh the grass feels so good.

Walking barefoot without sandals is actually good for your health, but I'm worried about getting pricked by thorns, broken glass or nails. I can walk barefoot but have to be very slow and careful.

@astutimeliana723 I have tried high heels but they are not for me. I look at people that can wear them and wonder how they can walk in them. I am more of a flat shoe person myself.

When I was a young working girl in my 20's that's my office shoes, high heels. I even wear the stilettos. At that time, I don't mind, I can do away with it, no problem. But now that I'm older, I prefer comfort over style and beauty. I rarely wear them anymore, only on special occasions that I need to be dressy. Most of the times I wear flats or those block heels that are just a few inches like an inch or two but nothing pointy, no more stilettos.

In fact, high heels do not prioritize comfort but prioritize a beautiful appearance so that the legs look long.

High heels can increase women's charm obviously,however,women easily get tired with high heels.additionally,the front tip of high heels was too small,will squeeze foot.So in fact,high heels was uncomfortable for women.My wife seldom wear high heels.

I would love to use high heels but due to knee issues, it's not possible. I used high heels a lot in my youth, because I wanted to be taller (I¨m 4*11) but I don't care about my height anymore :).

Of course, high heels are awesome if you don't have to walk or even stand for too long. Besides, how high are we talking? I'm not sure I can even walk on some heights. If I really have to wear "high" heels they're going to be wide and with a platform, then I won't mind much.
