The Physiology of High heels


The heeled shoe is a normal shoe (which should be prohibited by the Geneva Convention) but with the added extra inches at the heel by means of the so-called "wedges" or an increase more or less close commonly called heel, some are also equipped with a platform at the front, to mitigate the gap: it is known as "pleateau", commonly known as truzze at the "buck", in honor of the famous philosopher, known transvestite. The shoes, given the choice of female hysteria for combinations cloakrooms, have different shapes and colors. Each shoe is his mistress. Hopes are all whores easy. The heel in fact has the same form of tampon that sticks where you want to be now.

There are many categories of shoes with heels, whose names are generally not known to men, too obscured by the legs of the wearer to worry about the technical name of those damn things that leads to very sexy feet that make tic-tac but then, however much are removed before going to bed or not, depends on the tastes:

The most simple and classic are the décolleté, usually in patent leather or black leather, which combine with an elegant black dress or a suit, in practice a professional woman, careerist and self-confident, short for an acid bitch that do not you ever give unless you can not buy him many others, along with many other nice cars, houses, diamonds and jewelry. To dodge like the plague the décolleté of different colors from a sober black (bright red, yellow piss orange) indicates a personality or schizophrenic or a woman from fidelity SERENOVARIABILE from which it is best to stay away. Dubious even those with little flowers, bows, ribbons and various trappings that usually suggests a woman vain, frivolous and very shallow, in short, a real goose gleeful.



A variety of décolleté first of which consists of those with a strap behind, above the heel: the lead or sfigate who believe they live in the 70s or fifties looking for a healthy sex who remember the good times when "Menopause" was just a strange term on the books of science, in which case the heel is lowered and becomes more squat. Rischiosissime to carry, because the lack of support stopped taking his foot wrong and exposes them to all sorts of stumbling blocks. And frankly ugly from an aesthetic point of view.

Most popular and casual sandals, in every shape and color, suitable for summer and beach parties, especially with the wedges. Very diverse in style and wearability: you switch from unsustainable stilts comfortable but hideous rafts. Index of a cheerful personality, lively and fashionable, that of a girl whose availability is directly proportional to how much he drank / ingested / smoked.

Where is your God now?

In autumn and winter, not to bathe in puddles and make way, spread the boots, they also invariably with heels. It can carry or above or below the pants, in which case respectively indicate the opening (mental and legs) or less of the subject, or with a skirt and with socks of various kinds and grammage. Much depends on the individual model: it goes from modest black suede boots that are well under a coat paired with provocative black leather boots, most suitable for occasions of seduction and lust. They take them to the good women and those who keep us to the image, even though they are married or already mothers. Over the boot becomes aggressive, the more likely that the dear hubby has difficulty passing through the doors because of a massive antlers that comes out from behind the ears.

Jackboot knee in shiny black latex heel and platform transparent 18: thirty to fifty mouth love.

Some evil genius has seen fit to add even to a heel sneakers, born precisely to make it comfortable and automate the complex art of travel along the three axes of the coordinate plane. We will not discuss these perversions, or we will speculate on the moral and psychological qualities of a woman who chooses to risk breaking your neck for a pair of Nikes.

The heel seen by a woman


Simple: a torture to have to endure if low or very slender or just having to pick up. If you are a prostitute is work requirement. The feeling base is to be pierced at the tip of the foot by a chain saw. It's like when Mr. Berlusconi is another prostitute with your money.



The heel is, for many women, a key rite of passage from childhood to adulthood. Sometimes, there is no precise age to perform the ceremony: in many Central Asian countries, males are circumcised at age twelve, while in the western world, at a similar age, girls are started to walk on high heels . The only difference is that circumcision in the end it only lasts a few minutes and eventually heals, but you must wear high heels for the entire fertile life and continue undeterred to hurt like the devil, after all, and use the ' abuse that they can do.

She suffers and you enjoy! She suffers and you enjoy! Shame!
There is an active debate about whether there is a precise technique for walking shoes codeste: some say the heel-toe and the heel-toe who, some say to put one leg behind the other and those who raise The seat, which of those swaying gently in his arms and jumping to the rhythm of the rumba, singing the national anthem of Turkmenistan. The truth is that there is a way of alleviating the pain, except for a root canal surgery of the nerves of the legs.

Not to mention the dance is very beautiful and poetic view, in movies, beautiful princesses in a fluffy white dress twirling and swaying to the rhythm of the waltz from their twelve inches in the arms of a beautiful young officer decked out in his uniform high-ceremony style debutantes' ball; less beautiful is the experience of trying to move to the beat of twelve dizzy, thin and fragile inches of heels that are likely to crash under the wheels of decent dancer at every awkward, clumsy and awkward hop or worse than it tumbling into a loud craniata the polished floor of hard marble, in the eyes of all dismayed. Even if the woman taccuta [citation needed] manages to avoid trauma and fractures, the pain that can result in five minutes of slow dance of the harmless six centimeters is comparable to forty lashes on the ankles, buttressed with a cat o 'nine tails electrified.

Recommended, if anything, the outlook is for any movement which differs by five meters in a straight line on level floor, to escape into the bathroom to change her deadly heels with a couple of quiet dancers who sighted the woman always carries in her purse.

o Do not wear heels every day themselves. Rotate your shoes, wear different heel heights every day.
or wear high heels when there is no need to walk or run very energetic activities.

2. Choosing the right pair.

Consider several factors when selecting high-heeled shoes. Choose the ones you will be comfortable in.

o Choose a wider heel with higher heels. A wider heel, most often added stablility to the shoe and help to maintain balance.

The problems of the foot and the tendon


High-heeled shoes tilt the foot forward and down while bending the toes up. The more that the feet are forced into this position, the more it can cause the Achilles tendon with shorten.This can cause problems when the wearer chooses lower heels or flat-soled shoes. When tilting forward of the foot, a much greater weight is transferred to the sole of the foot and toes, increasing the likelihood of damage to the underlying tissue springs which supports the foot. In many shoes, style that function, either compressing the toes, or forcing them together, possibly resulting in blisters, calluses, hammertoes, callouses (hallux valgus), Morton's neuroma, plantar fasciitis and many other medical conditions, most of which are permanent and require surgery to relieve pain. High heels - because they tip the foot forward - put pressure on your lower back out doing push back, crush the lumbar vertebrae and contracting the muscles of the lower back.
If you can not completely avoid high heels, it is suggested that the wearer to spend at least one third of the time they spend standing in profile support "simple" (eg shoes sandals exercise), or well-cushioned "sneaker- type "shoes, saving high heels for special occasions.

One of the most critical problems of high heel shoe results in properly constructed toe-box. Improper construction here can cause major damage to his foot. Toe-boxes which are too narrow force the toes to be "crammed" too close together. Ensuring that room exists for the toes to assume a normal separation so that high-heel wear remains an option rather than a debilitating practice is an important issue to improve the fit of the high-heeled fashion shoes.

Wide heels do not necessarily offer more stability, and any raised heel with too much width, such as found in the "Blade" or "block" high-heeled shoes, induces unhealthy side-to-side torque to the ankles at every step, stressing unnecessarily , creating more impact on his toes. Thus, the improved design of a high heel is one with a narrower width, where the heel is closer to the front, more solidly under the ankle, in which the toe provides sufficient space for the fingers, and where the forward movement of the foot in the shoe is kept under control by adherent material through the neck of the foot, instead of being pressed by the fingers forward and jamming together in the area of ​​the fingers or crushed in the front of the toe.

Despite the medical problems that surround high-heel wear, a few podiatrists recommend some well-built low to moderate heels for some patients [citation needed]. Appears a slight elevation of the heel improves the contact angle between the metatarsus and the horizontal plane, thus more closely approximate the correct angle and the resulting distribution of the weight of a medium-high arch of the foot. Specialists other foot, however, argue that any heel causes unnecessary stress on bones and joints of the foot different.

Contemporary scene - High Heels


Since the Second World War, high heels have fallen in and out of favor several times, particularly in late 1990, when lower heels and even flats predominated. Lower heels were preferred during the late 1960's and early 1970 as well, but higher heels returned in late 1980 and early 1990. The shape of the heel fashion is changed from the block (1970) to tapered (1990), and stylet (1950, 1980, and post-2000).

Today, high heels are typically worn by women, with heights ranging from a kitten heel of 1 ½ inches (4 cm) with a stiletto heel (or spike heel) of 4 inches (10 cm) or more. Extremely high-heeled shoes, such as those greater than 5 inches (13 cm), are normally worn only for aesthetic reasons and are not considered practical. Cleavage are conservative styles and often used for work and formal occasions, while more adventurous styles are common for evening wear and dancing. High heels have seen significant controversy in the medical field in recent times, with many podiatrists seeing patients with serious foot problems were caused almost exclusively by high-heel wear.

Heel wedge is informal another style of the heel, where the heel is in a wedge shape and continues to the tip of the shoe.

During the 16 th century, European royalty started wearing high-heeled shoes to make them look taller or larger than life, like Catherine de 'Medici and Mary I of England. In 1580, men wore them, and a person with authority or wealth has often been described as "wealthy".

In modern society, high-heeled shoes are a part of women's fashion, perhaps more as a sexual prop. High heels force the body to tilt, emphasizing the buttocks and breasts, highlights of the sexuality of a woman. They also emphasize the role of sexuality in the foot, and the act of wearing stockings and high heels is often seen as an erotic act. This desire to look sexy and erotic continues to lead women to wear high heels, despite causing significant pain in the foot, or corns and calluses, foot or Hammer. A survey by the American Podiatric Medical Association showed about 42% of women admitted that they wanted was to wear a shoe, although it has given them trouble.

Precursors to the high-heeled shoe


(Introduction: For a woman to wearing high heels are accustomed to things, but for high heels and you know how much it? Did you know that the first high heels from?)

Most of the lower class in ancient Egypt walked barefoot, but figures on murals dating from 3500 B.C. depict an early version of shoes worn mostly by the higher classes. These were leather pieces held together with lacing that was often arranged to look like the ankh symbol, which represents life. There are also some depictions of both upper-class males and females wearing heels, probably for ceremonial purposes. Egyptian butchers also wore heels, to help them walk above the blood of dead beasts. In ancient Greece and Rome, platform sandals called kothorni, later known as buskins in the Renaissance, were shoes with high wood or cork soles that were popular particularly among actors who would wear shoes of different heights to indicate varying social status or importance of characters. In ancient Rome, the sex trade was legal, and female prostitutes were readily identified by their high heels.


During the Middle Ages, both men and women would wear patten, or wooden soles, that were clearly a precursor to the high heel. Pattens would attach to fragile and expensive shoes to keep them out of the mud and other street debris when walking outdoors (Swann, 1984).

Elizabeth Semmehack, curator at the Bata Shoe Museum, traces the high heel to horse riders in the Near East who used high heels for functionality, because they helped hold the rider's foot in stirrups. She states that this footwear is depicted on a 9th-century ceramic bowl from Persia.

In the 15th century, chopines, a type of platform shoes, were created in Turkey and were popular throughout Europe until the mid-17th century. Chopines could be seven to eight or even 30 inches high, requiring women to use canes or servants to help them walk. Like pattens, chopines were overshoes, but unlike the pattens, chopines were worn almost exclusively by women. They were usually designed with cork or wood stacked as the heel.

The Venetians made the chopine into a status symbol revealing wealth and social standing for women, and tourists to Venice often remarked humorously on the outrageously high chopines. One visitor noted that they were "invented by husbands who hoped the cumbersome movement entailed would make illicit liaisons difficult" (McDowell, 1989). Already, we can see issues of domination and submission being associated with shoes much like the lotus shoes of China. Indeed, Chinese concubines and Turkish odalisques wore high shoes, prompting scholars to speculate if heels were used not only for aesthetic reasons but also to prevent women from escaping the harem (Kunzle, 2004).

Shoes were beginning to be made in two pieces during the 16th century, with a flexible upper attached to a heavier, stiffer sole (Swann, 1984). This new two-part shoe led to the heel as an actual part of the shoe rather than just an attachment.

It is sometimes suggested that raised heels were a response to the problem of the rider's foot slipping forward in stirrups while riding.The "rider's heel", approximately 1½ inches (4 cm) high, appeared around 1500. The leading edge was canted forward to help grip the stirrup, and the trailing edge was canted forward to prevent the elongated heel from catching on underbrush or rock while backing up, such as in on-foot combat. These features are evident today in riding boots, notably cowboy boots.

The simple riding heel gave way to a more stylized heel over its first three decades. Beginning with the French, heel heights among men crept up, often becoming higher and thinner, until they were no longer useful while riding but were relegated to "court-pony" wear. By the late 17th century, men's heels were commonly between three and four inches high.

In 1533, after men had already started wearing heels again, the diminutive Italian wife of Henry II, King of France, Queen Catherine de' Medici,commissioned a cobbler to fashion her a pair of heels, both for fashion and to suggest greater height. They were an adaptation of chopines and pattens (elevated wooden soles with both heel and toe raised, not unlike modern platform shoes or clogs and sabots), intended to protect the feet of the wearer from dirt and mud; but unlike chopines, the heel was higher than the toe, and the "platform" was made to bend in the middle with the foot. That raised shoes had already been worn as a fashion statement in Italy, at least, is suggested by sumptuary laws in Venice that banned the wearing of chopine-style platform shoes as early as the 1430s.

High-heeled shoes quickly caught on with the fashion-conscious men and women of the French court and spread to pockets of nobility in other countries. The term well-heeled became synonymous with opulent wealth.Both men and women continued wearing heels as a matter of noble fashion throughout the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. When the French Revolution drew near, in the late 18th century, the practice of wearing heels fell into decline in France due to its associations with wealth and aristocracy. Throughout most of the 19th century, flat shoes and sandals were usual for both sexes, but the heel resurfaced in fashion during the late 19th century, almost exclusively among women.
