I don't know why the myth exists that high heels look sexy. Lots of them look clunky and make the foot or ankle look deformed. Some of them cause the body to not have correct posture and cause bunions and callouses. I also know that many men agree with me. Sensible shoes do not have to look orthopaedic and one does not want to be crippled in oldage, so I opt for a 'normal' shoe.
