There are other reasons to wear heels at work. They make you feel like you are on tip-toes, very awake and ready to go.

I don’t doubt that for a second. My not being a woman and all, I stopped long ago trying to make sense of anything women do, and just accept that none of it does make any sense to me. If it does to the ladies, I’m the last guy to stand in a gal’s way while she goes about being female in whatever way she likes.

UNTIL

Her femaleness becomes a weaponized status of permanent aggrievement to be deployed on me. I had tolerated this in the past, and to this day I see men knuckle under to aggressive and duplicitous female conduct on a steady basis and find no excuse for it on the men’s part other than simple cowardice. And, that to enable women in their bad manners and power-grabbing, is no favor to them and accords no woman any genuine honor. If a lady has to shortcut her way to feeling she is an equal by stepping on men’s throats (figuratively for the most part) with her heels instead of just wearing them because she likes to, then that male throat is at least not going to belong to me.

A bully is a coward and nothing more, and I have seen so much more female bullying than male in my life, that I have long wondered why women who use power tactics rather than simple competence to make their way never recognize what a bad light they throw other women into by being cowardly bullies. I have had the distinct honor and privilege to know a lot of very capable and worthy women, and these qualities are best illustrated by their decision to have good manners and well-developed interpersonal skills. Women who bully and bluster and whine and flirt and manipulate to get their way I hardly see as women at all: just overgrown little girls, and spoiled rotten by the half-men who allow them to act that way at their own male expense.
