Fred,

Both shoes in your pictures are fine (the ankle boots in particular) and you waft along quite un-noticed. I too have boots similar to your Forarina, albeit with a meer 3" heel, but I wear them at weekends with jeans and heel fully exposed. The only person who has ever commented to me was my niece who remarked that they were quite high heeled for cowboy boots, but accepted them nevertheless.

You do say there is an undeniable association with men wearing heels and the gay/fetish thing. Do you mean stiletto heels, as I am sure that if you ask anyone to describe a high heeled shoe, they will almost universally describe a 4" pointed toe court with a stiletto heel.

Stiletto heels = sexy, ask any woman. The chunkier the heel the less sexy the shoe despite what the fashionistas try to tell us. It reminds me of when I am flying and your standing in immigration waiting your turn and you see your flight crew walk past. Your eyes are immediately drawn to the stewardess' wearing stiletto heels and dismiss the chunkier ones even if they are the same height.

Will we never learn. We are men not women. Society is not going to change its perception on a man wearing stiletto heels - ever. So if in our readers minds it is stiletto heels or nothing, then they had better get used to nothing.

Its a shame we are discussing this, which is way of the original topic, in this thread as it would be great to read other opinions, but they would be unlikely to open the thread because it is not relevant to them. mods - help?

Simon.
