Q: Aren’t there still places where you both can go together where neither of you wear shoes…? Honestly, at the end of the day in a marriage, isn’t that what matters…? ---

So when you two were dating, she always wore flats? You didn’t know that if she wore heels she’d “tower” over you until now? ---

I’m sure your height isn’t your only shortcoming she measures in inches. ---

Read the original post again. He is actually bragging and proud about his wife and his only concern is that she is slightly taller than him in her 6 inch heels (which are very high for a high heeled shoe) Realistically, I don’t know why any woman would want to wear a 6 inch heel - but I digress) The obvious solution is to start an arms race (or should I call it a foot race) and he should get some 4 or 5 inch lifts in his shoes to appear taller than her Of course, then she will respond with even higher heels and so on until they are both walking on stilts:D ---

If your wife is the type who says “You can’t wear that jacket, it doesn’t go with my outfit” then you now have grounds to say “You can’t wear those wedges, they don’t go with my height.” But otherwise… life goes on. Deal with it. ---

I like tall women. I like high heels. I like tall women in high heels. The Ukulele Lady refuses to wear heels of any sort. See, we were teenagers in the 1970s, so she considers high heeled shoes to be Oppression Tools of the Ruling Patriarchy. Be grateful your wife wears heels occasionally.
