Her first pair of high heels!
7 comments
Oh my dear lord, WHY?! You'll never guess what they came up with this time. You'll never guess. It's too horrifying.
Introducing... HEELARIOUS! Stylish high heels designed for baby girls to wear. I wish I were kidding. On the Heelarious website, these shoes are described as: "extremely funny, completely soft, fully functional high heel crib shoes for babies." Of course, by "fully functional," they mean: "Not intended for walking (heel will collapse with weight)." So basically... the purpose of these shoes is to put them on your daughter while she's sitting in her crib, invite your friends over, and stand there and laugh at how "heelarious" she looks.
Yeah, that's really disturbing. The website (decked out in pink and heart designs) proudly boasts the slogan, "Her first high heels" and offers mini pumps in several designs. I can't wait until I have a daughter so I can buy her a pair of these:
I think I might vomit.

Now our infant daughters have to be made the object of male sexual fantasies. Pedophilia at its basest level.
I have always believed that this "hairless" phase that we've been going through is about pedophilia as well. We can't celebrate the fact that we're healthy, sexual, adults with hair on our bodies and genitalia, so we have to pretend that we're pre-pubescent children and shave our bodies and bleach our assholes.
But high heels for infants? I think that this takes the prize.

you guys are taking this way too seriously! Its a joke! And Im sorry but if you think that a crib shoe is the thing that is whats going to attract a pedophile then you are sorely mistaken. Lawyers and professors wear heels does that mean they are hookers? No! Get a grip

You never know... pedophiles are sick people.
But that isn't the main point. The main point is that babies aren't lawyers and professionals... they're babies. Ergo, it's creepy and wrong to dress a 1-year-old like a 35-year-old woman.
We also never said that wearing high heels makes someone a hooker. A woman has every right to rock a pair of high heels and look classy and sexy... but babies just don't need to look classy and sexy.

5th post person doesn't seem to understand that high heels are a symbol of sexuality. Therefore, making babies wear heels is sexualizing them. It's taking the socialization of young girls to be fashion-obsessed dainty morons to an even younger age.
