Good Responses From Women: The Ultimate Resource

kneehighs · 7th November 2004, 16:33

The purpose of this thread is to illustrate that a man in heels can look good to some women some of the time. Its filled with an abundance of anecdotal testimony: everything from women who share inspirational metaphors for men to wear high heels...to women who give out their number to a man in heels. Some women have excited responses like, "I love your look" ....to other women even reaching down to touch the shoe itself. Read on for further education and pleasure.

Okay, so being out and about in New York City on a Saturday evening street heeling had two interesting and fun notes to add:

"Your signature is your heels"--I was at a nightclub sitting on a bench next to the dance floor. To my left was brunette wearing dark indigo rinse jeans, patent baby doll open toe pumps, and a black satin halter top. I had actually left my cell phone with my jacket at coat check and really didn't have the time. After getting the time and few minutes later into our conversation she saw my heels:

Then she said, "Oh my god, we met before! Remember how you met my friend Jen, you know, the short blonde? If it wasn't for the heels I wouldn't have recognized you. Jen says she wants to come out with me to this club again so maybe she can talk to the guy in heels again. 'He's cool.' Your signature is your heels!"

So that was a fun response for sure.

"I want them!" is what a cute little brunette said to me about my boots. She was wearing a black top, dark blue jeans, and moderately pointy toed boots. But mine were pointier.

So I seized this opportunity and feeling brave walked up to her and said,
"I'll bet my shoes are pointier than yours. (Doing this I placed the tip of my shoe against hers)."

She said, "You're right, OMG."

I continued, "And I bet my heels are higher too..." At which point I tilted my foot to the side exposing the 4" heel. But that wasn't good enough. She had to bend down, hold up my foot with her hand, and examine the heel to believe what she was seeing.

"Wow, I like em! I really like em," she enthusiastically exclaimed. Then I said, "Banana Republics!" Then she said, "How much were they?"

"$200"

"I want em!"

So how is that for a couple of positive heeling events to enhance an already good evening out?

I have had a few good reactions when trying on shoes in a store.
One women even started asking me for advice (that was in San Francisco) and recommended me to buy the red boots instead of the black ones.

Strangely, where I have received a lot of postive reactions is when I get a pedicure. Several times women clients have commented that think it is so cool when a guy has his toes done. Maybe it is the type of women that come and get pedicures ...

Well, I know from my own experiences with female co-workers that women tend to be more accepting of men wearing heels. I'm either being complimented on my shoes, or told that I amaze others because I wear such tall heels. It's quite refreshing to say the least.
:D

Let's face it! Most guys aren't anatomically constructed to wear sleek, fashionable, women's clothing -- especially high heels. While it is one thing to see a 6' tall woman, dressed in a sharp business suit, wearing classic stiletto pumps with 4" heels, most men wearing a suit and tie would look just plain silly, especially if they were 5'7" tall and weighed 230 Lbs. They would look as out of place as does "Mimi Bobeck (Kathy Kinney)" on that silly Drew Carey TV situation comedy show. Guys and gals with "hippopotamus feet" (gals with ankles as thick as their legs (swollen?)) shouldn't wear 5" stiletto heel pumps in public. It looks like a marshmallow sitting on top of an aspirin.

I agree with Bubba, nothing like a big'ol foot in a dainty stiletto pump. Just not right. I do however like the look of the stiletto boot with the jeans covering the heel as in the original threads picture by kneehighs.
