Why do you just dress as a woman from the waste down? Wouldn't it be just as easy to dress completely as a woman?

If you just try to walk as normal as possible, it's least likely that anyone will notice your heels, provided they are well hidden under long pants or jeans. I realize though that there are many of you guys here who openly show their heels. Then, depending on the statement you guys want to make, walking feminine may be the right thing; but it definitely doesn't do it for me.

Sure my walk is more more feminine in hh.

Sometimes i think that my walk now is more feminine also when in men's shoes!

I think its irrespective of shoe type as it depends on your build as some men walk like ladies and some ladies walk like men.

IMHO I think it's normal that a guy in heel walks "like a woman"
When we say "like a woman", we are thinking "like a woman in high heels"

How many girl in no-heels shoes walk like a Man?? The most...

Well said, I agree

I would say whatever suits the image... if you are going more feminine then a graceful feminine walk is needed, a chunkier larger stride walk would not suit finer tailored trousers or skirts with heels, especially stiletto heels as these are the realm of very feminine attire.

Having worn heels for 4-5 years openly, and a good year now with skirts as well (but as a man - now that sounds like a contradiction!) I speak from experience when I say that the higher your heels get the more you have to use your hips to walk fluidly. If I want to walk quickly in high heels then I will lead with each hip as that foot goes forward because it gives each step that little extra distance and ensures I keep my knees straight and ensures I don't turn my toes inward. Inward turned toes are a sign of the wearer of heels that are too high for them to manage. You should try it - take a step with your toes turned in vs turned out and you will see you can stride longer with your toes inwards (while keeping straight knees). I deliberately don't cross my feet over but keep them in an imaginery straight line when walking so I don't go into a "catwalk model strut" - but there definitely is a pronounced sashay of my hips. I always push my shoulders back and make sure my weight is back on my heels and not on my toes. I keep my shoulders still as I walk and let my torso/ hips do the work. You can push your arms more across your body as you walk - rather then forwards and backwards like a guy generally does as this stabalises you hip movements.
I don't think it is a noticeable on a guy as a girl because we guys don't have the wide hips - therefore it is much less pronounced.

I am quite happy to have some element of a feminine walk because when I wear heels they are always stiletto heels, very high and very pretty. The walk suits the shoes and accessories.

As with anything you can dial-up whatever you feel like. There is no reason whay a guy couldn't strut it right out, it is easy to do - but it draws the wrong kind of attention in my opinion. The whole image needs to piece together in some form.

See ya

Just found this here:
"The perils of walking in high heels for men are similar to that of women, except that while women wear heels purposely for the effect of having their butt sway in a sexy way from side to side, a man must try to stop the butt sway that occurs when perched on high heels at all costs. Looking taller is manly, but tip-toeing and sashaying back and forth is not. Any man who attempts to increase his height with highheels must study Tom Cruse and his method of walking very carefully, with full knowledge of the dangers inherent in being caught wearing high heels."

I never found walking in heels challenging, it was actually much like second nature to me. (My girlfriend's jaws dropped and started questioning me when she first saw me walk in them - she bought my first heels for me)

But here is one thing to keep in mind, apparently my walk was always very feminine ever since I started walking; I tend to sway my hips quite a bit and keep my feet right in front of each other

From what I've seen I think you're supposed to bend your knees and sort of shuffle with your feet apart while letting your ankles wobble a bit.
