		<description>You realize that image is of a woman enslaved, chained and walking with a sharp nail driving into each heel, right?  How is that befitting of a pro-heel benefits argument?!  You can also improve your pelvic floor muscles by doing a few quick exercises every other day or so-surely you`ve heard of Kegals?  Those won`t cause pain and health problems for the feet, legs, and back each day, either.

On the other hand/foot, it`s an interesting bit of research, especially from a sociological standpoint on women and sex.  One of the reasons footbinding in China became the standard for women was because a bound-footed woman`s pelvic floor muscles were said to become incredibly tight and muscular from the stilted, swaying gait it gave; men loved it.  I doubted this, until I found this page, so it might be true after all that walking on heels does tighten pelvic floor muscles.   Beautiful but debilitating, foot binding was a cultural norm passed from mother to daughter for generations because a woman with unbound feet really would never get laid-no man wanted a big-footed girl.  Modern high heels really are more like this other sexier-feet-by-debilitation phenomenon than I thought.  Then there`s all the other things women do for beauty and to attract men...

I like the look of heels, but I`d vote against touting any pelvic floor muscle improvements over all the safety and health problems they cause.  Not proposing a ban on high heels so much as more ergonomic and comfortable-while still being attractive-shoes and clothing.  Why does beautiful have to mean uncomfortable, why do even lovely flat-heeled shoes need more cushioning so they could be comfy as well as beautiful.  A bit of improvement could be done for heels, too..</description>

		<description>That&#039;s very minimalist. Should keep one on one&#039;s toes.

Long night on the dance floor, though.

And yeah, I like black and red.</description>

		<description>@alcessa: good point :)

@Luka: I&#039;m sure that would do wonders for your pelvic floor muscles! We expect photos of the transformation progress :twisted:</description>

		<description>Hm... I bet it all depends on how well one can handle high heels. I cannot imagine they&#039;d improve my life in any way :-) (&lt;i&gt;said the tall, large, clumsy moose&lt;/i&gt;)

But the red dress thing is easy (I have the urge, too, though I don&#039;t own a red dress yet), isn&#039;t it? It represents ...erm.. a vivid connection with our inner Pretty Woman. 

Gentlemen?</description>
