Oh dear god. This trend was started by either short, compensating men or vengeful women I bet.

Back in the 1500s, men wore high heels for the same reason that women wear them
today: to have a more sexy walk.

/Or so I was told once by a ladyfriend.

At first I was thinking work boots with a 2" lift which even looks normal. I was thinking normal guy stuff. This is some hybrid drag thing, even platform shoes looked better than this, that is awful.

You look RETARDED. Just because you can't grow facial hair doesn't mean you should dress up like a girl.

I was thinking the same lines. I wear a pair with heels when I have to deliver a trailer load where I have to do a lot of walking. Really takes the strain off of the lower back.

Those... are not cool.

You can wear heels and still look relatively manly, if they are cowboy boots.

Yes they did. But then again, having a lisp and being draped in gewgaws was pretty much the equivalent of having your pants around your knees and a pick in your 'fro does in certain areas today: It's a statement of masculinity.

Yes it has increased, from none to two, and those two arent really "men", you know, in the traditional sense. NTTAWWI.

Headline should have included "gay men" to be accurate.

No guy I know would ever wear those.

Looking at the picture again I don't see your point. Is there anything remotely 'manly' about them?

I've seen androgynous female models pushing out more testosterone than those two.

How i know you are a gay American:
1. You have ever touched another man's penis sexually. EVER. Especially with your mouth or anus.
2. You have allowed a man to touch your penis sexually.
3. You wear any kind of facial make up (unless you are a clown or some other entertainer)
4. You have or would wear high heels

...not complete list. Add as needed.

My line of work allows me the excuse to wear these. I have them on right now. Gives me at least two extra inches of height.

First World Problems: It's socially acceptable for men to show up just about anywhere in a pair of pants, shirt, and comfortable shoes. Even if you're "dressing up", in all but the most formal situations you can get away with dockers, a polo/long sleeved shirt-sans tie, and flat shoes that are easy to wear.

But no, some of us have to look for ways to make life more difficult.

Well, they appear to be men, and that's confirmed by the caption. So, yes.

If you feel the need to determine whether other people are manly or not, then you probably don't qualify either.

I'm sure that the only footwear that would NOT be labeled like that is something gay men would be horrified to wear. Would someone ever label my cheap black wal-mart house slippers as gay? Less likely than anything stylish or something made of leather.

High heels are stupid when women wear them and they are doubly stupid for men. I can add to that by saying the same about pointy toes, platforms, etc. When did we decide to have heels in shoes AT ALL? Was it some cult of people who only walked downhill? It's utterly unnatural to have your heel significantly raised above the ball of your foot. We're not cats, for Christ's sake.

Even after that, there is a significant difference to wearing platform boots and heels as a performer and wearing scaled up women's shoes. One is a costume, the other is you being a performance artist playing a sissy boy for attention.

I would rather be drag and wear heels than wear heels with what they are wearing.
