Lissa has a post up about those goofy foot attachements women sometimes wear to make themselves taller than pocket sized, or in Nancy's case, 7 feet tall! You women folk are a silly lot, but we love ya anyway! :P Go read, you will laugh!
On a more serious note, just stop it ladies! We don't need you to wear heels and take it from me, they will fubar your feet something fierce. No, I'm not a cross-dresser, although I did stay at a Holiday Inn last night......err, go out as a hot girl for Halloween once in college. (boobs, plaid skirt, wig, the whole shebang. I was quite the catch ;) )
I am one of what is probably a vanishingly small number of men who've had a bunionectomy. It's no fun! They don't just lop off the protruding bone, they've got to straighten your toe out again too. *You will get arthritis in your big toes, your feet will get misshapen, and as those big toes turn in they'll pushing against the middle knuckle of your 2nd toe, causing yet more pain. When your feet get cold & wet in the winter the stabbing pain in your toe(s) will make you want to force a smelly hippie through a TSA groping and then punch him in the junk repeatedly just for being a smelly hippie.
* I admit, it is pretty cool when the doc takes your cast off, gives you the all clear and then yanks the paperclip looking pin protruding out of the front of your big toe straight on out and you think "WTF dude!? That didn't hurt at all!"
Short, tall, bubblebutted!, we don't care! We just don't want to see you go through needless pain, so wear flat shoes ladies.

Flat shoes maybe, but they gotta have arch support or it's a whole 'nother kettle of fish.
Well I have no arches to support. But still, I'm not giving up my high heels. A well made pair does not require wild foot contortions anyway.
I have to say, meeting Nancy in the werewolf shoes was one of the rare times in my life that I've had to look up to look a woman in the eye.
As to whether or not a woman needs heels, I'm neutral. If you want to, have at it, but don't do it on my account.
When my 5' tall wife and I wed, she was in the habit of wearing heels. At age 26, she had back, neck, shoulder and feet problems. I'm an RN, often on my feet far too long; she's a hairdresser, same time issue. I like to think I convinced her to stop with the heels; problems slipped away!
