    I hate Deathantis so im only Playing devils advocate. if you go back for enough it was intended for men. He’s just going very traditional as the part of traditional. Ugh that hurt me to type. Gonna wash my hands.

    Heeled shoes were originally worn by men, and have been found in the histories of 10th century Persian and 3500 BC Egyptian life. While this style of footwear was originally geared towards the needs of men, the 18th century saw women begin to adopt high heels into their fashion.>

      That might have been the original point. Men wear lifts to feel more “manly”, reaffirming their perceived gender. Trans people undergo gender affirming care to feel more like their own perceived gender. The difference is just that other people may not perceive the trans person’s gender the same as they do.
