Well, it's better, but not great, lol. (hey, I get that heels look good - they make legs and butts look better, and posture too... but damn, they fuck up a woman's body over time. I wish us women weren't so stupid and vain and sexually competitive as to embrace a fashion that is so terrible for us! If we all stopped doing it, men (and lesbians) would still like us ).
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy. ~ Desiderata

I'm just going to put this here. Sorry to rain on your heel-loving parade darwinstheory, but it's for the greater good. Alright, sorry to everyone else too... back to the topic now!
The average woman gets foot pain
after a mere hour in pumps. But high heels impact your body beyond just
making you wanna sit down. Here's how they affect different parts of
your body—and why that's something you might not want to stand for
anymore.
Feet
• Normally, your feet act like spring-loaded, weight-distributing shock
absorbers, cushioning your skeleton from crazy amounts of pounding. Jam
these engineering marvels into high heels and. . .ouch. You've shifted
much of your mass onto the balls of your feet and your tiny, delicate
toe bones.
• The higher the heel, the bigger the impact: One study found that
four-inch stilettos can up the amount of pressure on the front of the
foot by 30 percent or more.
• Your heel-to-toe transition becomes abrupt, forcing you to swap
your natural stride for a staccato walk. Strutting like this all the
time could usher in bone and nerve damage (not to mention blisters and
ingrown toenails).
Ankles and Calves
• Wearing heels forces your ankles to bend forward, a movement that
could restrict circulation in your lower limbs. If you're a perennial
high-heel wearer, this could eventually spell spider veins.
• Walking in heels also stiffens your Achilles tendons, which anchor
your calf muscles to your heels, causing your calves to bunch up. If
you've had your tall pumps on all day, you might have trouble walking
naturally when you first kick off your kicks. (You can work to offset
this stiffness by flexing your feet—shoeless—several times throughout
the day.)
• Over time, stiletto devotees can develop chronically taut (and
shortened!) ankle and calf tendons, making walking—even in
flats—painful.
Knees
• Another pro shock absorber, the knee is the largest joint in your
body. It's built to take a licking, but frequent high-heel use can put
extra stress on the inner sides of the knees, fast-tracking the wear and
tear that leads to osteoarthritis.
Hips
• To keep from keeling over in stacked shoes, you have to thrust your
hips forward, arch your back, and push out your chest. That familiar
sexy stance works the outer hip muscles and tendons hard (and not in a
good way).
Back
• In order to sashay around in heels, your spine needs to sway
unnaturally, a process that stresses your lumbar erector spinae muscle.
Result: sore lower back.
• As with your other body parts, your back needs a break. If you wear
high pumps one day, don cushioned flats the next. Or save your spikes
for special nights out—and never walk around in them for longer than a
few hours at a time.

I think heels look terrible, even the women who wear them most naturally still walk around looking like birds.
When a woman knows how to walk in heels that is sexy as hell.
When she walks like a bird, she was better off not wearing them.

You are deluding yourself, they are all birdwalkin, some are just better at it. Seriously, it's a completely unnatural gait, even when it's performed with grace.
Whenever I meet an attractive women the last thing I worry about is her choice of shoes. Unless of course she is wearing Crocs. Now that's a deal breaker lol

I'm guessing you haven't seen it done right yet, lol.
I think you people are being too broad in your preference for a romantic suitor. Why not narrow it down? I am only interested in dating a girl who thinks No Code is the best PJ album.

Wow. I understand liking tall women if you're very tall, but geez, that really limits your options. There aren't very many women who are taller than 6'.... unless you mean when they wear heels (hubba hubba btw - sounds like you're really really tall; that is very attractive to me - I like extremely tall men ... but I'm "only" 5'10" ).
I am 6' 2". Do you love No Code?

Crocs are a definite deal breaker. As PJSOUL eluded to, sometimes heels can help a lesser attractive person appear more attractive.
Sorry, this thread had gotten way off track. I only want to find someone who's as into PJ as me, with their favorite album being No Code and their favorite song being Off He Goes.

I only wear runners, is this why I've never had a boyfriend?
Come to Australia. Activewear is so popular now. Girls at my university wear compression leggings, runners and sports apparel hoodies/jumpers or casual.
