A Brief History Of High-Heeled Shoes: This Stuff Was Originally Designed For Men.

A few weeks ago, I heard a woman say in a restaurant.

It was invented by men to prevent them from escaping from their side.

I would like to tell her: "this lady, the history of high-heeled shoes can be traced back to 1920."

But I still can't do it, because I can't walk in high heels.

However, I still want to say that she is not right at all.

High heels were originally designed for men and for men, and women were robbed of them from men.

I know a lot of people don't like high heels. For obvious reasons, they are uncomfortable.

But I personally think that unless you are walking along the alarachian mountain path, a pair of high heeled shoes will not work harder than others.

But all the fashionable things seem to make people a little uncomfortable.

Underwear and underwear, underwear, for example, is a stupid invention.

If the only goal of clothing is comfortable, we will run around like a Teletubbies in a fluffy dress.

In this way, the world will become fearful, cold and tasteless.

All in all, I love high heeled shoes. They are fascinating, including historical and cultural connotation of power and financial resources, and I do not think it is a woman's patent.

Because they are not exclusively women, at least in design, they do not intend to turn them into women's patents.

The description of high heeled shoes can be traced back to ancient Egypt, but it really became popular in Persia in fifteenth Century and was worn by male riders.

According to Elizabeth Semmelhack, a person in charge of Bata Shoe Museum, "when a soldier steps on a stirrup, the heel of a high heel can keep him well balanced, thus concentrating his attention on the bow and arrow."

Then

It is a tool needed for war, rather than the current allure.

Later Persian messengers began to travel to Europe, and heels also passed.

European male aristocrats may not be able to ride archery, but they do feel that they will not touch their feet, or simply say that all kinds of sludge that can be seen in Renaissance cities will not get them.

Of course, high-heeled shoes also make people taller. Height (high enough) has always been an advantage.

People like Henry VIII often say proudly how tall they are because he was 1.87 meters tall in fifteenth Century.

Men want to look taller, more dignified and deterrent, so for them, high heels are not for beauty but for deter others.

Dita von Teese once said, "heels and big lips can make people afraid of God."

They are still scary.

In sixteenth Century, Italy prostitutes began to use high-heeled shoes as a sex symbol.

As the highest prostitute at that time, many women did not have the "honorable" thing.

They are the only women who can enter the library, because people think that prostitutes know how to please men, and they can interact with men only a lot, and they are often "liked" by men.

They include reading, smoking, drinking and wearing high heels, so they are higher than everyone else.

But as prostitutes who are in contact with traditional men, they may also enter the opposite position at any time.

They have to use half a lemon for contraception, may be infected with syphilis and then be publicly humiliated, and they may be persecuted and burned.

But if you go back to Italy in sixteenth Century and do not want to be locked up in the house, there will be no two doors. Making a prostitute is not a bad decision. Everything is good and bad. See what you think.

These prostitutes will wear very high heels with the highest height up to 25.4 centimeters.

They like to wear high heels when they are with men. The duty of the man beside them is to support them while she is crossing the street.

Usually one or two men are required to help, but sometimes they recruit four or five powerful children to support her body.

I guess they walked along the street with the words "high heels are hard to wear," but they sound great in their ears.

I would like to change it for me. I would call four or five members on a few phone calls and tell them that their job today is to be my walking stick.

But at that time, high-heeled shoes were not completely abandoned by aristocratic men, but some powerful people stopped reading, smoking or high-heeled shoes when the famous prostitutes began to do the same thing.

In eighteenth Century, high-heeled shoes symbolized the peak of power.

Louis Xiv is only 1.64 meters tall. He loves high heels.

He was the first person to add red ornaments to the sole of his shoes. He allowed officials close to him and his high-heeled shoes with similar red soles.

Almost at the same time, a group of cheaters came out. They painted their shoes red, suggesting that they were close to the king.

These people were eventually thrown out of the court because it was a crime and a serious nature.

Charles II also liked red soles. He wore French high heels in 1661's coronation.

During this period, women who were not prostitutes also started wearing high heels, because the clothes with gender distortion were cool at that time.

People in seventeenth Century will also have sex with women wearing pants, because the actress who plays Shakespeare plays the same way when she plays double gender.

And more generally, women.

They began to add traditional men's breath, such as triangular caps, shoulder straps, military style golden braid, and high heels.

These women are basically aristocrats, like men's high-heeled shoes.

Then came the French Revolution.

Democracy has become fashionable, and wearing clothes shows that social strata are becoming less popular than others.

The popularity of high-heeled shoes didn't reappear until nineteenth Century.

In nineteenth Century, a yellow photographer found that high heels make women's hips look better.

In twentieth Century, the relationship between high-heeled shoes and women in French postcards became more closely related, and the phenomenon of men wearing high heels gradually weakened.

When you think about it, it's still a strange phenomenon.

Height is still what men want to have, but this is just an advantage for men, and women are not high in beauty.

It seems that men wearing high heels will be more beneficial, at least make them look taller (in a survey, 90% of women said they wanted to date men who were taller than themselves).

High heeled shoes have been in fashion for 600 years now. After about a century, we may see them return to the feet of men.

By then, you can ask your male friend wearing flat heels if you would like to be your walking stick, because that is a theory that we should bring back.
