I love high heels. I wear them often but not everyday. I prefer classic/sophisticated designs and some that have some whimsy like the Louboutin Anemone. I dream about owning a pair of Anemone Loubi's (sigh).
I'm also tall and I could care less if my being taller when I wear them bothers a man - that's their problem, not mine.
Has anyone watched the documentary "God Save My Shoes"? It's all about women's obsession with their shoes. Most of the shoes in the collector's closets of those in the film were high heels.

Foot Petals are awesome. They've also got sticky strips to put inside sling-backs if you have the problem that I do where the heel strap often slides down.
As for heels, it depends for me on the outfit as well as the activity. I think short, casual skirts look trashy with high heels, for example, and I prefer skinny jeans with flats or wedges. Wider legged pants look better with heels, even if they're just two inches.

Being taller in heels bothers very few men, it only bothers women. I am fairly short and I love seeing women wear heels more than 99% of men who are taller than me.

Very few? Nah. I'm 6'1 barefoot and can't tell you how many mean comments I get from men when I wear heels. I've been told more times than I can count that I'm 'undateable' because I'm too tall, especially in heels. Had a guy who was 6'9 tell me he couldn't date me because in heels I was nearly as tall as he was.
So yeah, it doesn't bother some guys, but it does bother many.

Screw all those guys you are beautiful and being tall is a great trait to have. If they cant handle it then that is on them

That hasn't been my experience. Most men are bothered if I am taller with or without the heels. A few don't mind but definitely the majority are.
I read this conversation but i think high heel can damage your keens if we use it on the regular basics. I want to advised that woman who only wear the high heel shoes beware about the serious injury.
Hogwash! I'm 76, a life-long high heel devotee, for work and for dressy occasions. I call that a regular basics and my keens are just fine, TYVM.
BTW: I don't have a problem with my knees, either.
