How About We Sharpen Up Those Fingernails?
Can a beauty trend empower women— for a change?
A lot of beauty trends literally disable women. Take high heels. Who can run in those? No one. I personally can’t even walk in them. Not only do high heels hobble women, but also they can cause lasting damage to their feet. So why are high heels considered attractive? Is it because they make women easy prey?
To hobble, by the way, is something that brutal animal owners due to horses so they won’t be able to run away. It’s crippling. Seriously. Why are we doing that to ourselves? It’s unhealthy.
And Very Well Health says high heels don’t only injure the feet:
High-heeled shoes can cause a plethora of foot problems while impairing stability and increasing the risk of injury. Leg, back, and foot pain are among some of the more common complaints. Long-term use can even cause structural changes in the foot itself, leading to bunions, hammertoe, neuroma, equinus, and other conditions that may require surgical correction — VeryWellHealth
