Great article about men wearing heels for the "walk a mile in her shoes" campaign against sexual violence against women. Just thought I'd share. Thought it was neat.

    High heels look so awkward on a man's feet.

    But it's AWESOME, regardless.

    Depends on the man. They look less awkward on my brother than they do on me.

    I love anything done to raise awareness about rape and other violence against women. Walk a Mile in Her Shoes is a fabulous cause and I hope that it continues to grow every year. :smile:

    last year in Indy there was a "Slut Walk" to promote awareness about rape and violence against women. Basically women dressed up extrememly slutty carrying signs saying "No means No" and "This top is not an invitation". Very entertaining!

    I always picture Patrick Swayze in To Won Foo when I think of men in heels! Great cause. I hope the guys don't hurt themselves. It took me a while to be able to walk safely in heels.

    There's a Men in Heels walk round my town every year. The charity shops stock up on the big sized shoes all year especially. Last year my shop got invaded by hunks in drag. Great fun!:laugh:
