Are air hostesses required to wear high heels shoes aboard the plane?
how do u women wear very highheels all day
Not the best idea. But if you accidentally face such a situation, it would be only good to take them off and walk barefeet or not at all.
What should you do if your son wants to wear women's shoes like high heels all the time?
Kudos to these answers! He must be shown respect and encouragement because otherwise he may be faced with a confusing stigma and unclear of who he is or may want to be! Just love him and go with it and more important back him up if people are cruel to him! There is nothing wrong at all with it! I wish at times I could wear them! Some boys go through this sort of thing believe it or not (if they are below puberty age.) I remember when I was growing up in the 50s and poodle skirts were in style, my mom would make them and use my 8 year old brother to fit the skirt onto. He would only do it if he could twirl around in my skirt! LOL If one of his friends caught him doing this, my brother would have sunk into the ground never to return. When he was bad, my mom would threaten to make him go to bed with one of my nightgowns on and he had a fit and behaved himself. So, one never knows. I do suggest you get your son to a psychologist so he can come to some professional assessment of him. It may not be anything, but if it is, then you should know as soon as possible. Although a frightening prospect for parents, it's not the end of the world, and it's "knowing" that is more important so that you can handle it. Just in case you haven't had time to think along these lines, what is more important in your life is the fact your son is healthy and alive, and no matter what his sexual preference is in the future, it doesn't change one single thing of the goodness inside of him. Good luck Marcy Encourage him. Respect his fashion preference. It's easy to follow the crowd, but takes courage to do something different. And high heels have been worn by men as well, especially in the past, so they are not necessarily women's shoes. I think a son like that should be admired.
Is it still fashionable to wear high heels shoes with jeans?
Yes, if you can do it more power to you. Try to get good shoes so your feet and back won't kill you before the night/day is out.
Why do high heels have a smaller surface area?
This is not necessarily true. Only when the heal tapers will its surface area be smaller. The surface area is that which is in contact with the ground. Platform shoes are likely to have the same surface area as normal shoes, and stilettos will have a very tapered heel and therefore small surface area and great pressure per square unit)
How are stiletto heels and wedge heels alike?
Stiletto Heels and Wedge heels have pretty much the same affect on the body (elongating the legs and raising the glutes). Both are usually considered flattering to the body.
However, it really depends on the person, but some find it easier to walk in one than the other. Stilettos apply more force over a smaller area, meaning they'lll get stuck in the mud easier and hurt a heck of a lot more to be stepped on by.
But stilettos are also usually much classier. Wedges are fun to wear and good to wear on casual occasions.
my answer
I disagree stilettos are much classier, they often looks excessive near a wedge of the same height, to me stiletto looks better around 2 max 3 inches. To me any intelligent girl would prefer wedges above this height.

Are there any laws against high heels?
Yes, there is in effect a law in Chicago...It is forbidden to the use of a high heel shoes in the city, because some time ago a girl sue the city for an accident that occurred, sehe got trapped the shoe in a drain lid, the city lost the case and had to pay for the injuries and a big sum of money, 11 million i think, after that day the mayor created a banning of the use of high heels in Chicago, abd if you use them and have an accident the citty has no reponsability in that case, that means the city can not be sued again, for that matter, if you have an accident similar or the same kind, you get nothing these days.
I'm all for it. I'm a straight man and I love high heels. Men love them for the same reasons women do. Also, if you wear a proper size, it's not difficult to walk in them and it really doesn't hurt.
It's puzzling that "society" seems to dictate that women are supposed to have so many more rights and freedoms than men; we've gotten into a society where women are "entitled" to do whatever they want. Women can wear traditional mens clothig and nobody even looks twice. A woman wearing mens jeans or mens dress shoes is considered fine; nobody makes an instant silly conclusion that the woman must be gay.
Men should have the same freedoms. Men's shoes are boring and bulky. Women's shoes are much more fun and comfortable.
Men in heels. I'm all for it. I think men should save their legs too, body hair is nasty and unattractive.
Why are the inside heel corners of mens shoes clipped?
That is so they don't catch on things. The sharp corner can catch in the cuff of the opposite trouser leg while you are walking and put you on the ground right smartly. If you notice, only the inside corner is beveled.
Stilettos are a type of high heel. They are usually quite high and have a long, slim heel. Most shoes by Christian Louboutin are stilettos (at monstrous heights!)
How can you persuade your husband to wear a skirt and high heels to a fancy dress party?
If he doesn't want to dress up as a woman even for a costume party then respect his wishes.
My husband (6' 6") tall and I went to a costume party and he dressed up as a hooker and it was a hoot. He had so many people laughing just by looking at him. I helped him get dressed and he had on a blond wig, a huge bra, low-cut blouse, short skirt and fish net nylons on with rips in them. He played the role perfectly and had everyone in stitches. He won first prize. My husband is all man and I don't have to be concerned that he's a cross-dresser or gay. We just had fun. He suggested it, but I would never force him.
AnswerSome men prefer skirts to trousers simply because they like the comfort and freedom of the garment. These men have no desire to dress up like, become or pass as women. They simply want an alternative to having to wear trousers all day and every day, as society decrees that they should. As for your husband, he won't turn gay just by wearing a skirt - that is a myth that should be firmly squashed - and he may well find the experience liberating (I did). Don't push the heels though; that may be a step too far. AnswerThe same way you persuade him to do anything. Ask nicely, be prepared to compromise, and offer something in return.Answer
It may be worth trying to find out, using clever questions and watching his reactions to certain things, whether he really actually fancies wearing a skirt and heels (and stockings) but would not dare admit it under normal circumstances
Do high heels make a girl's bum look smaller?
Wearing high heels should not effect the way your bum appears. What can effect the way your bum appears is the type of panties you wear, and the type of jeans you wear. Obviously, the type of jeans you wear are going to change the way your bum appears. Tight jeans will make your bum appear more shapely and tight. Wearing saggy jeans will make your bum appear saggy and unshapely.
High heels do, however, effect your posture, and are not necessarily good for your back.

the reporter because there is more pressure being applied to a smaller floor contact area. the pressure exerted depends on the area of contact. the smaller the area of contact the greater the pressure.
for equations use this: Pressure= force/ area
force will usually have a variable of N and area will be a unit of measurement
