Love the double standard

Women = heels Men = height boosters

It would be one thing if it were just the heel

They're gender-affirming appliances when they're not for looks.

What’s hilarious is that heels started as a military thing- men who were cavalry would wear them so their feet wouldn’t slip through stirrups as easily.

I first saw them called heels a while ago. However, it's specifically because he's insecure about his height, so they're height boosters in particular. They aren't for style like heels typically are.

Am I missing something? I don’t see the negative side of heels? They’re just called by different names.
