        @MayaPosch Steve Martin did a bit about this in the 1970s, "The Cruel Shoes". Why women voluntarily wear'em so much I do not know

        There is no law saying women have to wear heels, except for the law of vanity. If your feet hurt, just stop wearing them.

        Nope. Stilettos are the Western equivalent of the Chinese bound feet and it took laws to curb that

        My heels are for life-altering special occasions (thesis defense, wedding, job interviews). My flat feet are okay w/ this policy.
