According to a new research, high heels make you more feminine and they make you look better…
So if you are a woman and you want to impress that guy or enhance your appearance, just squeeze into those high heels and you will get all the attention you deserve.
Scientists at the University of Portsmouth found that women wearing heels were rated as more attractive than when wearing flat shoes, even when those making the judgement are unable to see faces or bodies.

The millions of women who will be squeezing their feet into uncomfortable high heels this New Year’s Eve can rest assured that the pain will be worth it – because the shoes really do make you look better.
Researchers have found that heels can ’emphasise femininity’ and change the way the entire body moves, including the pelvis, hips, legs, knees, feet and even the shoulders.
Scientists at the University of Portsmouth found that women wearing heels were rated as more attractive than when wearing flat shoes, even when those making the judgement are unable to see faces or bodies.
The study appears in the scientific journal Evolution and Human Behavior.
Researchers wrote that ‘evolution may partly explain the continuing popularity of high heels as an article of the female wardrobe.
‘If wearing high heels emphasises some sex-specific aspects of the female form they may make women more attractive, and one motivation, which may be conscious or unconscious, for wearing heels is that it is part of mate selection’, The Independent on Sunday reports.
As part of the research women were filmed walking for four minutes wearing identical flat shoes and 6cm heels.
All women who took part in research had an average of around 10 pairs of heels, which they wore at least once a week.
To ensure the women were rated on how attractive they were purely based on their high heels researchers used a technique called point-light display which highlights points of the body with lit markers.
It means the judges would see only the patterns of these lights as the woman walks.
Men and women viewed 30-second video clips of the walkers in high heels and flat shoes moving towards them and rated them on femininity and attractiveness.
In each case the women were rated as more attractive in heels.
It was also discovered that an average woman walked more quickly in heels, changing from 106 to 110 steps a minutes, but with shorter strides – from 1.24 to 1.20 metres.
The researchers wrote: ‘Women in high heels walked in a fashion more characteristic of female gait. The results are consistent with the idea that wearing high heels makes women look more attractive, and added: ‘Fashions by their very nature are ephemeral, but fashions that endure, such as high heels, may emphasise sex-specific aspects of the body.’

High heels are only sexy in the bedroom room, especially when it comes to kamasutra and your girl is wearing a lingerie highheels and a bathingsuite hallelujah, but on the other side girls with yam, or brick legs and football legs on high heels is a big No No
@Dr. Miyagi Atopa, eii, make sure she doesn’t step on you with her highheels during kamasutra or there’ll be a problem o hahaha! anyway highheels look good but unfortunately I have a problem with my leg so I haven’t worn highheels for the past 10 years (except to dinners etc.) but I think I still look good anyway lol.
@Susie, hahha that’s would be very painful and would make that person loose his appetite than but as for the high heels if she assume the position and you do it right than hmmmm I guess it’s a hit man
Hmmmmm
THE TRUTH ABOUT HEELS IS SEXY, BUT SOME PPLE ABUSE WEARING IT ESPECIALLY IN GH, ITS LIKE À “FOLLOW-FOLLOW TREND” THERE WILL BE NO FUNCTION IN GH THAT YOU WILL NOT FIND AT LEAST 99% OF THE WOMEN IN HEELS. THIS HAS CREATED À MISCONCEPTION THAT ONLY HEELS ALONE CAN BE SEXY. NA LIE!
YOU WILL FIND À DESPERATE GHANAIAN LADY IN À 6 INCH HEEL, RUNNING TO CATCH À “TROTRO” BUS..???? DO YOU CALL THAT SEXY.?? WTF!!!!!!!!!!!
I like heels, although i sometimes feel awkward in them. I find ladies with nice calves (not calves like Ciara’s) in heels sexy.
@B.B, after reading your comments I googled Ciara’s legs and dammmnn ‘obaa paa nan nie?’ she really has some muscular legs lol. ba it’s all good since she’s a dancer and I guess it shows she works out which I should do more! heheehee
Love me some heels.Every lady needs a couple in their closet In my opinion, high heels makes women look confident and on top of their game.There are certain outfits that looks better with heels, no matter what.I just took mine off, after getting all the good compliments but I feel my feet needs a massage now..LOL!Dr. Miyagi Atopa, bring ur bare hands here..
Hahaha lol see you “feeling funky” right miss teaseR@Adjoa Nbaaso),
I love heels just like i love flats…i wear heels or flats when necessary. At work, we have to wear our heels from 8am till 4pm before you can take it off and wear flats…the guys always compliment us when we are in the heels but after 4pm, they pretend we dont exist…i agree that most men prefer seeing their ladies in heels, my guy has never bought a flat shoe for me before….its either 4inches or 3inches
