Linda asks…
Why do you think so many people walk and look so awkward in business attire?
Today I took my lunch break as usual but t his time I decided to eat at the mall in the food court. I work for the corporate office of a federal contracting company as well as all the surrounding business are as well and workers. It seemed as though for all of us to have to work in such professional atmospheres we would be accustomed to wearing dressy shoes (men), heels (ladies), slacks (unisex), blouses (ladies), dress shirts (men), suits (unisex), and act. Instead I noticed that a lot of the people either looked like they couldn't walk in the heels, was stiff as a board, couldn't maneuver in their suits, was either under dressed, or not very well groomed. I must admit although I always dress professionally I am always very clumsy in my heels (unbalanced), and tend to make a mess or stain my clothes? Why is this?
Our pick of the answers:
I think that many people don't shop around enough before they are buying their clothing. Business attire is like any other clothing. There are many cuts, styles, materials, etc... To choose from. A good fitting outfit will be comfortable no matter what its use is. Many people just go for what is in the first store they stop at. They figure that since it's a dress code, they have no choice. They are wrong. As for heels and other dress shoes, they probably are getting the wrong size or width. Dress shoes are frequently a more narrow shoe than casual. So too many people are just buying the same size they normally wear without getting measured. An average width may need a wide in a dress shoe, or the next 1/2 or whole size up for length. Practice is the only thing that can help a woman be more steady and less clumsy in heels. She should also be taking very small, slow steps. A normal stride is frequently too fast or wide spaced for balance in heels. Practice walking around at home. Take very small steps. Walk slowly. And don't walk heel-toe. Putting your heels down first puts your wieght on the smallest part of your shoe. Your toes should be going down first so the weight is on the ball of your foot, not the heel. Do the good old book-on-your-head if you want to help gain balance. It works, believe me. As for the mess and stains, try eating more slowly. Don't shovel the food in as fast as you can. Get less messy foods at lunch so you won't have to worry about ketchup dripping or oil running.
Betty asks…
did the tiger/gate make it harder for all married men(especially black men) with ur ladies ?
imagine this, your lady is watching tv, the news breaks, tiger woods appears with the headline, cheating tiger woods. now you walk into the room, your lady looks at you and asks, "did you do that too?" tiger woods, up to this point, was the cleanest cut, goodiest goody two shoes black man in america. but no more, now he has a record, cheating black man. does that put a further black mark on brothers in this coutry??
Our pick of the answers:
It could -- because many women are already hysterical creatures anyway, and already see men as inferior, untrustworthy human beings. All with society's approval. It's funny how Tiger is being seen as the only "bad person" here, even by himself. Meanwhile, the golf-club-wielding psycho-woman who caused her husband to get into a nasty car accident is being treated like the poor, innocent victim. All of this is pretty pathetic. I'm not defending Tiger -- adultery is never, ever excusable. But domestic violence is never excusable either -- not even when women do it, and not even when it's because their husbands have cheated. .
