What is the significance of the different heights of heels?
)
November 5th, 2009
I know that heels make a woman’s legs seem longer. The higher the heel, the longer the leg appears. There seems to be a preference for longer legs—that must have something to do with a survival advantage conferred by long legs.
Well, just now, as I went to get a latte, I saw a young woman wearing heels that must have been at least six inches! They were perhaps the highest heels I have ever seen. So it made me wonder…
What do 6 inch heels say about a person? Is it different from someone who has 4 inch heels? 2 inch heels? 1 inch heels?
It made me wonder if women see these things differently from men. They say that women dress for women as much as (or maybe more than ) men.
Being a man, I think higher heels are showing off. Sometimes they show off style, and sometimes they increase sexual allure (oh who am I kidding? It always increases their sexual appeal). Knowing this, hookers often wear higher heels.
What height range do you think is appropriate in business? At a party? What do the various heights say to you? If you wear heels, what heights do you wear, and in which situations?
