While historically men wore modern-day feminine fashion, the harmful effects of fashion on women has been vastly ignored by the men who market clothes & shoes to women. Something as small as a woman's Jeans pockets leads to the acknowledgment of how men view women today. Recently, this opinion has been shared in music like the song "Victoria's Secret" by Jax with lyrics:

"I know Victoria's secret

And girl, you wouldn't believe

She's an old man who lives in Ohio

Making money off of girls like me

Cashing in on body issues..."

If you want a fun and catchy tune about the history of the high heel, listen to Dorian Electra's song "High Heels."
