initmate high heels?!

[king4aday]

Ok..so I was at work (underwear store remember....) and this guy walked in and we had the following conversation:

Me: obvious
CIAG: crazy intimate apparel guy

Me: Welcome to ____________ can I help you find anything specific today?
CIAG: Hey...uhm...can you show me to your high heels section?
me: uhm...we dont sell shoes...we sell mens and womens underwear and sleepwear
CIAG: you sell "intimate apparel" (yes he did use the quote fingers) dont you?
me: well..yeah...we do have some underwear that might be considered intimate..
CIAG: and you dont sell high heels? Those are intimate apparel?
Me: uhm...sorry sir..if you are looking for high heels you will have to try the shoe store just across the mall there.....

the guy leaves and Im left wondering....How many people would consider high heels intimate apparel? Maybe Im just sheltered and oblivious or something....

[Imogene]

I might, depending on the type of high heel. Stilettos? Sure. High heel sandals? Not a chance in hell. I've seen adult stores that sell black leather high heel boots. Mmm, want.

[Saydrah]

Maybe those clear vinyl stripper 6" heels....

[ArenaBoy]

The type of heels he's looking for are things one would want to find in adult stores. If it's just skank type clothing (No offense to anyone on here who is into that sort of thing) then yeah one could consider it intimate. You'd be surprised as to how many shoes that are meant for that sort of thing are out there.

The thing that bothers me about situations like these is that the SC just doesn't listen to the answer. As if he asked you four times instead of just the once, your answer would have changed. Once you said, "No, we don't sell high heels." The response should have been, "Okay, thanks, I'll try somewhere else." Did he have a magic number in mind that if he asked THAT many times, the answer would change? (Maybe ala Mustafa in Austin Powers, hahaha)

As I understand the story, in early porno flicks were required by law to wear something. The law just didn't say what in particular they had to wear, so the shoes stayed on. I've never personally researched that story, so I can't verify it, but...

No, I also don't see the appeal in high heels. Either with or without other clothing. But hey, if you're expecting fashion to make sense....

Foot fetish?

[zzapp the witch]

Dated one of those once. That's a boring story. Foot fetishists are harmless and mildly amusing.

Now the guy that got off on watching me eat......

Actually most porno actors leave their shoes on because normally the sets are dirty (not like filthy, but it's a busy set and not going to be spotless) and the director doesn't want dirty feet to distract people from the "action".

and you know this....how? /snirk

[DannyboyO1]

Asking four times doesn't strike me as totally unusual in and of itself. I remember, when shopping around for a gift for my dad... who is very close to getting his pilot's license... I had an idea, a teensy little model plane, maybe keychain-sized, with an LED in the cockpit. "Here ya go, a pilot light." And when I struck out totally there, I was wondering about maybe a pin. Pilot's wings. And I was just giving up on my options at the hobby shop when the guy said "OH! Wait!" and he find the display of pins, badges, and faux medals. And by gum, pilot's wings! If I hadn't kept finding other ways to ask about my pair of ideas, the guy's brain wouldn't have kicked into gear before I left.

'course, turns out, grampa trump'd me. His wings from his military service. Once pops had the license. *sigh*

eer people who watch sex in the city and remember the episode was having bad sex, went intimate shopping and bought fuzzy shoes

[iradney]

Erm.
There's a certain shoe fetish that is a little different to your standard shoe fetish. I am not going to say more than that. Honestly.

[cinema guy]

I always wondered why they kept their shoes on.

Ahem. Not that I watch pron... honest.
