The Trade Union Congress from the UK has proposed a motion decrying the stiletto heel as demeaning to women.
High heeled shoes should be banned from the workplace because they are sexist and pose a health and safety hazard, say union bosses. Members insisted that female workers should sport ‘sensible shoes’ no more than an inch high (2,5 cm) to avoid injuries and long-term foot and back problems.
Unbelieveable! Some time ago there were at least two companies in the UK which demanded female employees to wear high heels. Now a union demands the opposite. My advise is to stop these nonsense and start taking care of things that really matter. Shoes are a fashion accessory to match an outfit and even a mark of a woman’s mood and personality.
