A new kind of wedgie for men

We're not sure what to think of the latest trend to turn up on the runway: Fendi gave his male models wedges. Shoes that is. As in, he put them in heels.
True, men have been wearing subtle and not-so-subtle heels since Napoleon, and there was that outbreak of platform shoes in the 70s. Still, Fendi's decision has us stymied.
In theory, it's kind of a good idea. The wedge is a very comfortable heel in which to walk, it's not especially feminine -- a Louis heel will raise far more eyebrows -- but to us, there is something really weird about it.
Perhaps we're being stodgy, so let's put it to a vote. What are your thoughts about men in heels? Only good at a Gay Pride Parada, or the trend of tomorrow?

| It depends on the length...of his pants | |
| Sure, as long those toes are covered I don't care | |
| Yes! I love when he towers over me, doesn't matter how he makes it happen |

As important as it is to me that my man is taller than I am, I just don't think I could get into him wearing actual heels. It just wouldn't do it for me.
