This campaign to collect signatures for a law against compelling high-heels and pumps on women has been spread internationally from our country , so I suppose I don't have to explain about this hashtag at this late date.
As I've confessed, my toes are shaped oddly by nature, so I cannot wear high-heels and most of pumps sold at stores.
I lack in sociability required for service industries where women are compelled to wear high-heels at, so I think I won't get such jobs for life.
At the same time, finding right pairs of shoes for formal scenes is really trouble for me .
They are the reasons I'm also the one who wonder why women have to wear shoes that are not made for walking in public.
Basically, I accept to wear pumps lower than one inch but consistently refuse high-heels
Thus, I approved the Advocator saying that it's unfair that women are compelled to expose themselves to risk of injury by wearing high-heels and pumps while male workers wear flat shoes, and it can be regarded as sexual harassment and power harassment.

In the first place, high-heels are shoes for parties and they are not made with assumption that users walk wearing them , I've heard.
Then, I'd like to suggest an outrage that people and employers who think it for granted that women including job-hunting female students wear pumps and high-heels on business are confusing workplaces and party spots.
It's legacy and proof how women are treated as icing on the cake at workplaces .
Waitresses and hostesses working at party places? Those staffs are not dressed-up guests.
The Advocator tried to arouse a controversy in such social situation.
But lamentably, abuses came up that it's just a feminist is getting mad to pick holes.
What if the Advocator were orthopedic surgeon or shoemaker instead of photogravure model working at a funeral hall?
Besides, Health, Labor and Welfare Minister said that whether compelling women to wear high-heels is regarded as power-harassment is whether those orders are from sound and probable business reasons .
What does he mean by sound and probable business reasons? -But no wonder;
I didn't expect that panjandrums would listen to the Advocator, neither would media members.
Because I cannot help imagining simplistically that many of them are moss-headed men who actually think that women's value depends on how they adorn themselves, including wearing high-heels.
And they are not the ones who suffer from injury from high-heels.
-Although I was skeptical about necessity of law against high-heels.

I see that thanks to this Campaign, awareness of the issues has been raised internationally against current foot-binding.
While I myself have a fair excuse to reject high-heels from the beginning,
I hope that high-heels at work will be out of fashion worldwide soon, so that our country will resign and follow.
I had thought that we became practicality-oriented in fashion after 3.11 earthquake disaster , but was I misunderstanding? Danger past, God forgotten?
