Rep Power: 6  | well I am blessed with a small mens foot-size 7 (which is womens size 9, in the USA) and I am not too heavy in the legs either so I tend to fit quite well in any heeled footwear (blades are my favorite) :)

Rep Power: 11  | i agree about the big ole foot in a dainty shoe. i've seen a few crossdressers with their gigantic feet stuffed into those pumps which look like size 15... at least for me, the look just isn't going places. i should feel fortunate for my slim foot and legs. |

My Mood: Rep Power: 71  | I must say, however, JeffB is one of the few guys that is, in my opinion, able to pull it off. At least that's my observation from the pictures he posted a couple of years ago. (I believe that he posted several of him in full face, from head to toe -- although if I remember correctly, he was sitting down.) |

I'm fortunate in that I'm both tall (6-2) and fairly slender in build, so the overall presentation from head to toe works well. You can't be pudgy, stout or overly muscular in order to look right in heels. One day, I'll see about doing a full figure shot so everyone can see the whole picture!

Some full figure shots would be very nice, maybe standing so we could see some side shots of your fabulous heel collection. Cheers---

My Mood: Rep Power: 29  | I thought I'd condense some of the positive responses we've received from women at TheFashionSpot.com in the Opinions On This Look thread. Out of a total of 40 posts, 12 different women (30% of the posts in this thread) were incontestably supportive of a man in heels. To qualify to be included in the following list, a poster had to somewhere reveal herself as a bonafide xx female, either in her profile or somewhere in her archived posts. So rest assured, these comments are strictly from real women. Quote: |

But your look is even more risque- and I like that. | The next quote is from highheels who doesn't reveal herself as either homme or femme, but when I read her archived posts, she was challenged with a "busty" problem revealing herself to be femme.

Sounds like some really great comments from women. It is very nice to know that some women are on our side and will encourage us to continue wearing our heels. Cheers---

Rep Power: 0  | A First Date.
I met a woman through a singles listing online, almost a year ago. We have been chatting online, and exchanging emails quite regularly. Some days we have chatted for hours.
I would often send her a picture of a a good looking woman wearing high heeled boots and ask her opinon of the picture. After a while I would send pictures but comment more on the boots, and ask her opinion. She started asking me what was up with the boots all the time. I told her I really thought they looked great, and I really liked high heeled boots.
Then I started sending her pictures of just boots. All kinds of boots, but always with a high heel. She finally asked if I wore high heeled boots, and I told her I did. She at first asked me all the expected questions. I told her it was just something I enjoyed. She told me she did not think that was something she was comfortable with.
Well, we finally had our first date last Saturday night. We met at a nice, quiet restaurant, not far from her house. I arrived first, wearing my Harley Boots with 4" heels. Once she arrived, we were seasted at our table. We hit it off pretty well, and sat there talking about almost everything, except high heels, for 5 hours!
After dinner I walked her to her car and we kissed goodnight. That is when I asked her if I had embarrased her at all. She said "No, why?". I said "Because of my boots, did you even notice?". She told me she noticed as soon as she arrived, so I asker why she had not said anything.
She then told me she liked them, and she guessed she was not as uncomfortable as she thought she would be.
Well, we are going shoe shopping this Saturday, then out to dinner again.
I asked her if it was ok if I wore heels. She said she hoped I would.
So guys! Go for it.
Hope this was not too Long Winded a Story. :D
