    Default the story behind the stripper shoe..

    I was reading the height compared to heel height thread and I've got a question...

    When did strippers start wearing insanely tall shoes in the first place?

    I mean, besides the obvious reason that heels make you look slimmer, stand taller, etc, what is the reason that they are so insanely tall and outrageous??

    Is it supposed to play into men's fantasies of being dominated and subdued by women or is it simply just a stripper thing?

    I'm 5'7, pretty tall as it is, and I can't imagine wearing 7 inch heels, I'd be 6'2!!! All the strip clubs I've been in there have been really tiny short girls, so wearing the monster heels made them tall, but still shorter than most guys.

    answers anyone?

    While you're at it, find out why they need to be clear. I've always wondered about that.

    Because clear shoes go with every color outfit.

    guys ask me the same question. i say it's because everything in the world of exotic dancing is exaggerated: shoes, boobs, outfits, hair, etc. it's also because heels make your legs look better, you look trimmer, and men seem to fetishize high heels in general.

    as for the clear heels: they go with everything. plus, they look damn cool, like you're walking on ice (well, that's my opinion).

    I dont know the story behind the shoe. However, they are far more comfortable than regular heels to dance in all night - with the extra padding etc. The elongate the leg and make your butt look great.

    I think fetish comes into it a bit.

    I once heard a lame-ass story about a club where the rules said that you couldn't be fully nude, but that shoes counted as an item of clothing, so the dancers would just wear shoes and nothing else, and that they were clear so that they looked like they were not even wearing them. blah blah blah

    I would love to know too and throttle the person who made stripper shoes become the standard. I hate them, anyone else? (-:

    I would join you in the throttling. Actually, no, I would make the person wear the shoes.. or even better yet.. do a spinning pole trick and purposely make the shoe(s) fly off my feet and hit her/him/them in the head ... argh!

    I've got f-ed up ankles thanks to the wear and tear these shoes have done to me.

    The only positive thing I like about them is that they make me a great height otherwise I could easily live without them

    I love the shoes too, not the monster-high ones, but the more moderate ones. I think I'd have a hard time dancing in "civilian" high heels. Also, shoes made specifically for dancers are sometimes sturdier than others...wouldn't want to land after a pole spin and have a heel break...

    I can walk 8 hours in my 7" platforms, but only 20 minutes in my 4'' civilian heels.

    Love the high heels, I wish "civilian" heels were as comfy!

    It's just a stripper fashion thing. Everything in the club is a visual fantasy for the people that pay money to go to a strip club. They don't pay to see the norm...they can go somewhere else for that.
