Kevin H asked:
I am a man who enjoys wearing shoes. I have found that some womens shoes appeal to me (i.e. keds, mary janes, some flat sandals). Why is it acceptable for a women to wear a shoe originally designed for men(chuck taylors, most nike, addidas styles designed originally for men but with colors such as pinks and purples) but men who wear womens keds or a pair of mary janes like the keens or a flat strappy sandal that were made strictly for women. I enjoy shoes and like to be different by wearing some womens styles of shoes. Such as i suspect women did with mens shoes in the 70’s or 80’s, whenever it was that alot of the mens style of shoes started being made for women.
