Backward High Heels
They say these are supposed to show the extremes women go to so they will look sexy?

Sexy is cultural timing like foot binding etc.

This part of a Steve Martin monologue came to mind:
Carlo disappeared into the back room for a moment, and then reappeared carrying an ordinary shoebox. He took off the lid and removed a hideous pair of black and white pumps. But this was not an ordinary pair of black and white pumps; both were left feet, one had a right angle turn with separate compartments that pointed the toes in impossible directions. The other shoe was six inches long and was curved inward like a rocking chair with a vise and razor blades to hold the foot in place.
Carlo spoke hesitantly, "... Now you see... they' re not fit for humans..."
"Put them on me."
"But...
"Put them on me!"
Carlo knew all arguments were useless. He knelt down before her and forced the feet into the shoes.
The screams were incredible.
Anna crawled over to the mirror and held her bloody feet up where she could see.
"I like them."

So who finds a woman strolling down the street like Quasimodo sexy??

Even given the awful lengths many women will go to to wear shoes they think are sexy, this is way, way off the end of the scale. SMH.

Please hold while your operator is attempting to find the correct word.......

So if regular high-heels are called "f--- me shoes", would these be more like "f--- YOU shoes"?

Please tell me this is social commentary on the perverseness and cruelty of fashion.

....still looking but I'm starting to believe that this (...) goes way beyond any lexicographical effort yet performed by man.

Its a social commentary whether that was the original intent or not.

Those are hideous, but they make you do an awesome zombie stagger.

These shoes are about sex, not fashion.

Pretty sure Harvey nailed it. The music tends to confirm that.
Sudon't, if anything, they strike me as anti-sexual. But maybe that was your/their point.

Designed by a sadist - to be worn by a masochist.
Call it 'co-dependency.'
