High heels are the worst fucking thing imaginable to stick on your feet. But morons keep on keepin on with them.
I spit out my coffee at the title of this thread!
Actually, a co-worker had to have an operation because of her having worn high heels for years.
I never wore heels. One day I wore a pair of narrow toed boots with a 2.5 in heel and the very next day I had a knob atop my foot. The podiatrist said it was my joint. Arthritis of the big toe caused joint dysfunction. I'm supposed to have surgery, but I won't. I never wear heels and I had a shoemaker put a sort of rocking thing on the bottom of my shoes that prevents the toe box from crumpling down on my deformed joint.
The best footwear for my feet, I have found, are certain Croc flip flops. But some Croc flip flops are awful. I just have to order them on sale and wear them a bit to see how they do.
[quote]"For ten or so years, I literally ran in heels," Parker told Net-a-Porter's magazine. "I worked 18-hour days and never took them off. I wore beautiful shoes, some better made than others, and never complained." "I went to a foot doctor and he said, 'Your foot does things it shouldn't be able to do. That bone there … you've created that bone. It doesn't belong there.'" "The moral of the story is, the chickens are coming home to roost. It's sad, because my feet took me all over the world, but eventually they were like, 'You know what, we're really tired, can you just stop - and don't put cheap shoes on us?'"
She wasn't actually filming for 18 consecutive hours a day. Why didn't she take her shoes off between takes and when she was waiting around in her trailer? And bullshit she was wearing CHEAP shoes.
[quote]And then for 2011's I Don't Know How She Does It, the actress got all method-y. "I was very thoughtful about my whole wardrobe and said, 'You know, (her character, Kate Reddy) could not afford really good shoes, she would go to Nine West.'
[quote"So I got shoes from there and the bottom of the shoes aren't leather, they are plastic, so I slipped a couple times, twisted my ankle." And got that most unfashionable diagnosis from her doctor.
Nine West must be ecstatic.
She was deformed way back in Fist Born, playing the ugly girl who smuggles a bottle of wine to the cute disturbed boy.
If she can blame her face on her heels, can I blame my neck on my ankles? They've both swollen, and I'm pretty sure it's related. To diabetes, natch.

Except she wore a Mulberry Alexa bag through the entire movie, which runs around $1500. Did SJP approve that? But the character wore cheap shoes?

oh please, what is she moaning about? it's fixable, it's not as if she has cancer or something...big fucking deal.
Do they make horseshoes with high heels? Must be hard to throw.
She has a bunion. Older women get them. She's trying to make it sound like a cheap pair of shoes crippled her when it's just one of those changes women find at menopause.
No, Sarah, you were barn that way.
I remember getting tickled while watching the Emmys Red Carpet coverage one year (maybe in '98) when Joan Rivers had no problem chiding SJP for wearing canvas Maryjane flats with her gown. Sarah and Matthew calmly stood on the carpet while Joan went off on her about it.
Has she tried the Malouf hoof?
That's why in the olden days, owners would re-shoe and trim their horses' hooves every 6 weeks. People nowadays are just lazy!

This is the groundwork for her lawsuit against Nine West. Ever since Steve & Barry's went bankrupt Sarah Jessica has been trying to think how to cover the recievables from her "Bitten" clothing line that got charged off.
Didn't high heels also deform Dolly Patton? No joke. High heels can ruin your feet and ankles.
"She has a bunion. Older women get them. She's trying to make it sound like a cheap pair of shoes crippled her when it's just one of those changes women find at menopause."
That would explain the bunions on older men.
Of course the human foot is not meant to be put into a high heel.
Bunions have nothing to do with menopause, you moron.
I can empathize with Sarah Jessica Parker.
They killed my feet, too. Have to kick them off when no one is looking.
However, I won't give them up because they make my legs look even more feminine and sexy!

High heels are beautiful but they do cause deformities.
Especially in older women, foot disorders are a major cause of disability and sedentary habits. A study involving almost 3,000 women and men ages 56 and older found that women are more likely to have bunions as they get older, and the more severe their bunions are, the lower their quality of life is. You should seek treatment if the pain and deformity interfere with daily routines and physical activity.
And now even the lil purple homophobe Prince is reduced to wearing Ace Frehley space sneakers with two inch soles.
High heels are terrible. They'll maim you like you were a Chinese girl with lotus foot.
I had a low pair of designer heels I wore to interviews when I was young and thin, and one other pair, but I rarely wore them and would NEVER wear heels now. And the lengths that straight women will go to to be considered fashionable or sexy really disturbs me.
But of course, if you gayboys saw me, you would call me a fat old dyke.

[quote]Why didn't she take her shoes off between takes and when she was waiting around in her trailer?
Just a theory, but she may not have taken them off because her irritated feet would swell and she'd never get them back on for the next take. I know I don't dare take my work shoes off until I'm done for the day (and I wear comfortable Merrell shoes).
"High heels are terrible. They'll maim you like you were a Chinese girl with lotus foot. "
Or a Victorian girl with a whalebone corset. But in the day these things were popular, no straight man would look at a girl who wasn't wearing deforming foot binding, corsets, or Xtreme high heels.
I think straight men respond to a woman who wants a man badly enough to suffer physical pain to attract his attention.
There are many foot deformities that are caused by wearing high heels: stress fractures, nerve pain, bunions, hammertoes, ankle sprains, stress injuries to the ball of the foot, and bruising under toenails.
Pump bump is a permanent bony protrusion on the back of the heel. It creates pressure that leads to blisters, swelling, bursitis and problems with the Achilles tendon.
R28, I know a straight man who doesn't date women who don't wear high heels. He says heels tip a woman's pelvis forward into a more attractive position.
Anyone who is that invested in deforming women doesn't impress me. I don't trust him.
I worked for a podiatrist for a few years who told me that women wearing high heels for years is what kept him in business. A close second were runners.
So, Matthew beat her in the face with a Manolo?
do they still do that operation where they remove the baby toe so women can wear high heeled uncomfortable shoes?

I'm glad she discovered the dangers of heels and how they gave her a horse face. As soon as I read about her discoverey, I threw away all my high heel shoes.

They'll respond to her, but I have a hard time believing they'll respect her.
