It’s funny, in SL, I love heels but in RL my feet were tortured for years. I still can picture pulling my feet out of my extremely expensive Ferragamos and wondering if I’d ever walk again. Better than foot binding i guess (btw, saw a wonderful film about two “sisters of the heart” in china… it revolved foot bindings.)
Actually I’ve mostly worn virtual flats too since they’re more “practical” or “comfortable” or “real” or something… and heels are so, you know, like your sexualized “panties”
But then I got hooked on Maitreya Gold, my drug, er, shoe of choice. The’re a lot of fun to wear.
Somewhere on this blog is a comment from some guy who said that he has a female avi ONLY because the SHOES are so awesome he couldn’t resist them!
They sure make you legs look pretty… until you fall off your feet. hehe
oh gawd Yordie — HEELS!! — and you thought “feminism” was big topic!!
