Are my shoes immodest?

[Katie777]

Yeah my dh is tall. So I try to keep up hes 6 feet tall so with 3 inch heels or better I’m 5’3.

… some of these shoes count as obviously sexually suggestive and intended for fetishized sexual encounters…

“some”


Obviously I wasn’t suggesting that literally every shoe someone can find on the internet, after searching the term “fetish shoes”, would meet the category in question. (Also, when I followed @catholiclala’s link, it was to a generic google search page. I’m not sure how you landed on a specific website you think is

the fetish site

in question.)

I think your mother needs to find better things to do than worry about someones shoes.

Just wear nicer, flatter shoes when out with Mom. I’d just give in.

Yup

I remember Physics 101.

Pressure is force over area.

The smaller the area, the greater the pressure as in the pressure is inversely proportional to area.

I don’t understand her reaction. Look at 1912 shoes from Sears Catalog:

Yes, fetish footwear is when the line crosses to immodesty. These types of shoes were once only marketed to people in the sex industry but then they became popular in the mainstream. The trend to wear these shoes has been dying for a few years now, thank goodness.

What constitutes “fetish footwear”?

Those don’t look much different than some of the styles we wear, today. I would call them classic.

I mean… come on, man. It sounds like you’re trying to defend an extreme here. @catholiclala has friends who, as she mentioned, are former sex workers, and that does give her position some cred here. And as a fellow woman who found the OP’s footwear alright and would agree that in general, footwear isn’t the part of an outfit I’d call out as immodest… If you check out @catholiclala’s link, actually check photos of ‘fetish footwear’, and disagree that these some of these shoes count as obviously sexually suggestive and intended for fetishized sexual encounters… I honestly don’t believe you. I think you’re arguing just to not have to adjust your original opinion, at that point.

The professional careers of her friends has little bearing on this issue. Nor the colloquial label placed upon certain shoes by the sex industry. And lastly, I have not made an argument even remotely close to what you proposed here. Perhaps you should read what I wrote again, because I think you simply misunderstood me.
