If Women Knew These Historical Tidbits About High Heels, Would They Still Wear Them?

Men introduced women to this invention many, many moons ago. And whether you love or loathe heels, pumps, or stilettos, it's pretty awesome to know who wore them first (guys) and what they were initially used for. Because when it comes time to smack patriarchy in the face — with whatever kicks we're into — it's good to have our facts straight.






I found this super-entertaining history lesson on "Stuff Mom Never Told You" from How Stuff Works. To learn more about the high-heel evolution as it relates to gender, check out this article. Thumbnail image via Thinkstock.
