A sexist tweet has revealed just how many people still want women to look like 1950s housewives, and it’s enough to make you want to throw your bra into an open flame.
“Why can’t all us women dress like this casually again,” someone tweeted.
Alongside the caption was a photo that looked ripped straight from the 1950s.
Two women in sundresses, wearing heels and pushing shopping trolleys at a supermarket.
Over 3 million people have seen the tweet, and the comment section is a mess.
Some people think women should return to dressing like dolls, and others think the photo looks more oppressive than alluring.
In good news for women, teetering around in heels in real life has largely become obsolete.
Fictional character Carrie Bradshaw is still wandering around New York in giant shoes, but up-and-coming “it” girls are taking a different route.
Sure, women are still wearing heels, but the classic sneaker has become a staple of the fashion elite and it has changed everything.
Podiatrist Emily Smith said she sees “significantly less” high heel-related issues in the feet she treats.
It means women aren’t harming their precious toots all in the name of, what, adhering to outdated views on how women should appeal to the male gaze?
Emily said high heel-related injuries can be incredibly painful and sometimes irreversible.
“Clawed toe, retracted toes, bunions,” she revealed, are some classic problems that extensive heel wearing can provoke.
Interestingly, Emily said flat shoes — like those ballet flats re-emerging in trends and the fashionable slides you see around town — are just as bad for your feet as stilettos.
“People’s feet roll in a lot more inside a flat shoe,” she pointed out.
This can cause a whole range of issues for your trotters. So what is the best option? Well, sneakers that aren’t completely flat.
Emily also said a “smaller chunkier heel” will give most people enough stability to not damage their feet.
If you boil down the advice, it’s important for women to dress for reasonable comfort.
The viral tweet reveals there’s still a frustrating thought process around the idea that modern women are dressing the wrong way.
It implies women should give up dressing for comfort while suggesting women who do dress for comfort don’t look as fashionable.
In 2023, women are prancing around the world way more comfortably.
We aren’t in corsets, heels or exclusively wearing pencil skirts. Even pop stars are just as likely to be seen wearing sneakers than stilettos, and our feet are all the better for it.
Every now and then someone tries to argue women dressed better years ago, but women were also in more pain.
I’m all for a look, a moment, a trend. But let’s keep our sneakers on and charge on forward.
