Oh yes, I forgot! That is correct! The Chinese used to hobble their women in shoes that were too small and the high heel made the feet look smaller - it was considered a sign of beauty to have small feet. ( Probably due the youthful implications )Originally Posted by Bree-asaurus
I rode a unicycle when I was a kid and I tulk to platforms with no problem. I think that mite of helped me alot.
Pretty sure I was instructing genetic males who KNOW they don't pass as a woman when they walk, how to do it more effectively. I don't see me telling women what they are doing wrong ... other than the fact that it is usually "obvious" when there is woman who "knows" how to walk in heels ... and one who looks like a draft horse walking. Otherwise runway walking coaches would not earn as much and need to spend as much time with their female clients ... teaching them how to walk ... in " a feminine way"
A woman's buttocks "do" on average protrude more than a man's. My method is a guarantee not to forget that aspect.
If you pass well in public at a walk, this is of no use to you. If you don't arch your back a bit and cause your butt to protrude, you may only "think" you pass ... as there may be other aspects you overlook ... and maybe people are just polite. lol
Actually, women told Dr. Shere Hite in her Hite Report on Female Sexuality ...that well over 50% of women ( who have experienced it ) prefer doggie style sex best. Since the Gräfenberg area is stimulated by pressure ( pushing ) and not friction ( rubbing ) and located on the anterior ( front face ) of the vaginal canal and is best "pushed" by the penis entering from the rear, with her at the angle at which nature designed this to happen.
Study after study after study shows this trend among women ( if you remove the Leo females who prefer to be on top because the like to be in control ... and are so insecurely afraid of being used )
Before you flame me... why not go and "ask" 100 women and see for yourself. ( Don't start at your Church group ...maybe outside a nightclub )
We know why they wear heels. They make them feel (like they look) good. It's about feelings.
As far as sex goes ... ignorance of the above betrays your incompetence and probably inexperience.
Please ... if you must flame ... at least know what you're talking about.
And maybe post a nice video of your feminine walk. I'll be the first to BOW to you if it is believable.
(Seriously ) But I bet it's not ... because you didn't explain how to do it better .... wink.
lol. Nope. Designed so you'll buy 'em.
I so feel like I totally let you down. I'm SorryI WANT TO LEARN TO WALK IN THEM!!! THAT'S why I posed the querry to the OP...
Mayhaps some sage advice is forthcoming...from our learned coleague...let us wait and see...
Thank you for your comments - yes - models really do show it. And when I started in heels, I was walking like a man in them and didn't understand the kinetics and balance of it all. Doing the tip toes thing really helped put it together - so I mention it again so people try it! Seems it really worked for you, too!
Haha - I didn't want to get them doing the Italian Runway walk yet ... but you're right - it's like a railway tie. There is a reason women's gymnastics has a BALANCE BEAM and men don't do it. Upper body / Center of Gravity / Natural step width.
More natural for women.
You said it! I'd rather wear flats than a short "high heel" - or mid height heel. Check the foot angle of the shoes you like.
It will probably be somewhere between 45 degrees and your natural tip toes angle.
Except for models on the catwalk, "real" women do not walk like you describe. Most women do take small strides, but that's it. When I'm in heels, I am forced to do the same. But watch any woman walking at the mall. It's not a catwalk, it's practical. When in heels, it is slightly more straight line with the feet. Anything exaggerated as you describe will attract attention in the wrong way.
OMG!! This looks like the instructional information I need to stop walking like an amazon...so sweet that you can put this into text with such detailgreat post!
The women on the runway do a much exaggerated version of what was written, by walking one foot directly in front of the other, which causes more hip sway ( sometimes even crossing their feet over beyond "one in front of the other" for extreme hip sway ).
In contrast to how a man walks naturally ( shifting weight from side to side and forward with a definite "bob" and a wide step ) a woman shifts weight mostly just forward with very little side to side weight shift . hips gliding forward ... walking more like on a balance beam, due a narrow step width ( unless they are overweight and have a center of gravity much higher than average and need to really push with the trailing leg to cause motion ) you'll find that was my intention - to point out that aspect and allow those who don't currently feel they walk in a feminine way ( I did mention that ) to realize how to do it.
In the mall - or the sidewalk - or at work - women in heels who walk gracefully and casually do adhere to what I wrote. When they are "on a mission" and walk faster, they do increase their step length. But in order to do that right and not look awkward, a male usually will need to understand the fundamentals of how to walk in heels ( heel toe sync ) before trying for a rapid walk, or they will likely do a heel first manly walk, which is what comes naturally to them. If never shown the mechanics of how to do it any other way ... they would have very little hope.
As you can see by the positive replies, there are a few members having that issue - and it was for them that the guide was written.
I thank you for your comments.
This is a great post, have never thought about the need to keep legs pressed when walking.
One thing though is that I've found many conflicting "guides" to heels with regard to heel first or heel-toe together.
Seems to me that it's more natural for near simultaneous heel-toe strikes in higher heels compared to lower pairs. Is this related to the 45 degree arch mentioned? Guess I'll need to observe more ladies and their walk in differing heel heights
In short, keep that thing tucked securely away.
#2 One foot in front of the other.
I found walking in heels easy After finding good fitting shoes.

Great post. I agree with all you have said. I'm going out tonight in heels and am going to think about your system for walking like a woman. No mater how well we move and walk like a woman we can always improve and learn. I have always enjoyed watching a well put together woman walking in heels. The shoes, ankles, legs, and hips are like a major production. Ever since I have been crossdressing I have tried very hard to accomplish the same movements and look.
Thanks for the tips, like I said in my post before I'm out in 5 inch heels tonight and I have shorten my steps and got a little more pop to my butt. Thanks for the reminder.
I found this incredibly helpful! Completely changed how I walk in even the highest heels. No more clip-clop
As for the heel-less wedges, I'm still convinced that those were created on a dare where one shoe designed said to another, "I bet I could get women to buy shoes that make their feet look like hooves!" I shudder to think of wearing those with my zebra striped stockings
It seems most women's hips sway naturally to some extent, but some got instructions on how to walk like a man.
I've found your first tip very helpful in adjusting my step so that one foot naturally lands in front of the other. I find that I don't have to actually watch my feet so much which is also a big plus. In the end though, I think the answer to the quesion "how to walk in heels" is the same as the answer to the question, "how to get to Carnegie Hall"
