It has made me wonder, why does one choose to wear high-heeled shoes over flats? Sure, if you are short, it gives you an additional inch or two. Yes, it gives an air of confidence for women while walking. What other reason do you have to compromise on all kinds of health risks just to wear high heels?

 It has to be noted that most of the women who wear high heels, find it extremely uncomfortable and unbearable. Most of the women have at least one pair of shoes that they will probably never wear (including me). So why go to all the lengths to wear shoes you most definitely do not like?

Why do women wear heels?

Alright, before we go on to list all the hazards of the deadly heels, let us consider why the female population even wears them. This is like asking a chain-smoker why he smokes. Of course, it’s not healthy. He knows it, you know it and the entire world knows it. Yet there is still something that drags people into it.

Likewise, heels too have a grappling hook on women. According to experiments, it is actually found that women in heels walk more attractively than those in flats. Unlike wearing flats, heels forces out a tilt in the hips while walking. This brings out a rather attractive and confident walk from women.

Wearing heels attracts male attention. Many experiments have been carried out to test out the attractiveness of both flats and heels, and guess what? Heels won them all! Wearing heels bring out the feminine side in women. Heels are ladylike and girly. The mere posture and walk bring out the woman in oneself.

 Heels bring out an air of confidence and power in you. The extra two inches puts you higher than the rest. There is just something in those stilettos that makes you seem more persuasive and commanding.
