It depends on your height:
6'3'' for high heels
5'6'' : for high heels
High heels are uncomfortable and hurt a woman's feet. It would be no loss at all for me if they disappeared completely from the face of the earth.

Lord Merciless, I'm not sure what you mean here. Was the battle between two different factions in China, or between the Chinese and the Japanese? Hideyoshi died in the 1500's allowing Tokugawa to take control of Japan. In any case, I'm eager to hear more about some of the forgotten corners of history.Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.

Ya, they are certainly uncomfortable when overused.
But, they are nice to see during special occasions or for going out to dinner when she won't be doing much walking.We the people are the rightful masters of both Congress and the courts, not to overthrow the Constitution but to overthrow the men who pervert the Constitution. - Abraham Lincoln

I've seen many women I know try to dance still wearing their high heels!
Take off your shoes and dance! It's way more comfortable and you will enjoy yourself more. This is something I will never understand.
With every woman I've taken out to dance I insist that they take off their heels. I have yet to receive a complaint. Could this be something they feel men want, or pressure they put on themselves?Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.

Honestly I think alot of women like the heels, I have known girls who just obsess over shoes.We the people are the rightful masters of both Congress and the courts, not to overthrow the Constitution but to overthrow the men who pervert the Constitution. - Abraham Lincoln

I had one g/f for awhile- we got along on many different levels but her shoe thing set us apart. I'm sort of a country hick, I grew up on a farm, while she is from the city. I could care less about getting my shoes dirty, while she could not bear to muss her shoes.
Shoes? I have three pairs- one to walk in, one to go to nice places in and one to run in. That's about all I need. Is this unusual?Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.

Even if probably it is not the most amazing victory, I will put a battle that was won by Italy during the Russian campaign in 1942, where the Italian Savoia Cavalry, made up of 600 men, attacked the Russian which had about 2,000 men with mortar and artillery support.
One squadron attacked head on, while the other came behind the enemy lines on horseback and possessing only sabers. They completely catch the Soviets by surprise and overrun the Russian position. This last calvary attack of World War II resulted in the destruction of 2 Soviet battalions, another battalion forced to withdraw and the netting of 500 POW's, 4 large artillery pieces, 10 Mortars, and 50 machine guns.

I think the Roman defeat of Boudicca (sp?) trumps Rourke's Rift. The Brittish, though hugely outnumbered, had a much more potent technological advantage vs. the Zulu than the Romans did versus Boudicca's forces.
Then again, the trouble with Roman (and before them, Greek) accounts of battles is that Roman historians had a tendency to exaggerate *just a bit*
