Around midevil times
Fashion in the early 1950s involved fancy dresses for women, and sleek suits for men. Accessories included scarves, high heels, hats and ties for men.
The high heels ensure a good hold on the stirrups, thus preventing the cowboy's foot to slide through the stirrup and get tangled while mounting, riding, and dismounting. While we're at it, the reason for the pointy toe on the boot is that it facilitates putting the boot into the stirrup.
High heels originated in the 15th century, initially worn by men, particularly soldiers, to enhance their stature and improve stability while riding horses. Over time, they became associated with femininity and social status, particularly in the 17th and 18th centuries when they symbolized wealth and power among the aristocracy. High heels have evolved into a fashion statement, reflecting cultural norms and societal expectations regarding gender and beauty. Their enduring presence highlights changing attitudes toward gender roles and the intersection of fashion and identity throughout history.

Louis xiv of France was famous for his extravagent highly decorated heels,often painted red as a stus of wealth.Eventually women started to wear high heels.The fashion for high heels for both sexes petered out at the beginning of the 19th Century. The revival in womens high heels began towards the end of the 19th Century.Since then high heels have generally been worn by women,although things like platform boots of the 70s & mens 'cuban' heels have drifted in & out of fashion. At present,theres been a resurgence in womens ultra high heels & 'Stilletos' popular in the 60's & 80's, are in vogue once more.Christian Leboutin is famous for his high heeled shoe designs.

Despite its fashionable appearance, there are many negative aspects of wearing a high heel shoe. Many women would argue that wearing such a shoe is simply uncomfortable. Indeed, high heels are not ergonomically friendly.

Assuming you mean high heels, the woman would hurt more. The weight of the large man is spread by the running shoes, but all the weight of the woman is concentrated in one VERY small area. We once had a problem with women's high heels denting the metal floorplates in airplanes.

Men can wear high heels but they shouldn't. Men can wear high heels. Only to prove how (un)comfortable high heels can be, I have worn high heels. In this way I can feel & understand how women may have problems with high heels. Some women don't have problems with high heels, and I say that's great for them!
