Shoes

I love shoes. 

Sandals. Boots. Stilletos. Bakya.

I only actually own three pairs. I don't even own a pair of rubber shoes. I borrow black school shoes from my sister. I borrow close toe flats from my mother.

I own two pairs of sandals. I bought them for two-for-P180. Did I mention that I am a tightwad?

I bought my third pair just three days ago. (Actually, my parents bought it for me.)

Stilleto sandals. Black straps. I like it. It makes my legs look sexier than they really are.

I am going to use that pair for graduation.

Unlike most stilletos or heeled shoes that I've tried in the past. This particular pair of stilletos are very comfortable. I walk for an hour a day wearing it to make sure that I won't embarrass myself on graduation day.

I love beautiful shoes. They make our feet look prettier and cleaner than they actually are. Feet looks really weird. It's also prone to uncleanliness because it's usually closest to the floor.

My dilemma with shoes are that most of them are really not that comfortable. I noticed that everytime I wear a new pair of shoes, my feet suffers while my legs look sexier.

I have a thing for beautiful legs.

Pain=Price of beauty?

Why do we go to extreme ends to look beautiful. Our feet were actually made like this for a reason. We deform our feets with these torture devices.

Maybe I'm being paranoid, but I think my pinky toes are facing the wrong direction. The nails are suppose to face upwards, right? My pinky toes' nails are facing the outside of the feet. ewww...I have deformed feet.

When I was going to a job interview, I borrowed my mom's wedge-heeled shoes. At first, I didn't care about the pain but the longer I wore them, the more painful they become.

When I took off my shoes after the interview, my feet were covered with blisters (pinky toes, big toes, heels, etc.) I was glad I had the forethought to bring a pair of sandals.

I remember our literature teacher. He told us that heeled shoes started in France so that the men would look taller than the women. Taller meant superiority over the women. I'm actually not sure about this. He was our teacher in freshman year (2006).

I wonder what happened. Why did the tables turn? Why are women the ones wearing heeled shoes now?

Is it because women are now more superior than men? Maybe women are naturally shorter than men and wearing heels helped them become the same height as the men. Does wearing heeled shoes mean that women are actually exerting their rights as equals of men?

If that is so, I should buy more heels.
