Shoes

I happen to be wearing my new heels to work today, yes the ones with four inch heels that make me approximately 6'1". I know that I am guilty of calling heels like this "hooker heels" or "slut shoes", not that I mean it because I wear high heels a lot, just that it seems like society frowns upon super high heels in certain places. For instance, work - I've seen many an MSN Careerbuilder blog that says not to wear super high heels to interviews, wear conservative shoes; also church, wouldn't all the church ladies gasp! if someone wore over a 3.5 incher to services! Now I have noticed that the rules change depending on build. Short women can get away with high heels where taller women, like myself, it's just too shocking; most likely because I am taller than most men with them on it tends to drown the inner short-man syndrome with gasoline and spark just enough to light a fire they had long ago tried to suppress.

My point is this, passing judgment on other people based on their appearance is a long debated topic, one that most of us try to avoid yet still do regardless, but really shoes? Why is there such a stigma on footwear? Does a 1/2 inch more of a heel really make us look like whores? NO!! Shoes are not immodest or outrageous! They are simply shoes! Hell, they go on our feet for gripes sakes!!!! So in response to this baseless and bonkers thought process, I will be wearing my high heels wherever I want, to the office, if I ever go into a church again, hell probably at my wedding! They are my feet and I will cover them in what I will, if you would like to gasp! in horror over my shoes or label me, feel free, it will be the perfect opportunity for me to justify all of the shameless and slanderous gossiping I will do about you later lol. Eventually, hopefully, people will be more concerned with being introspective and improving themselves rather than judging others for their footwear :) Until then, REBEL YELL!!!! :-)
