The other argument is that the foot pain could have been a result from previous injury. Preventing woman from wearing high heels is practically impossible but what you can do is wear in moderation and some are better than others.

Wearing ones that put less strain on the feet such as wedges that provide more support. I think this picture was very educational in describing what heels can do.

Everyone who's ever watch Sex and the City all oohed and ahhhed at the closet full of clothes and shoes. This new scanning technology at the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital in North London, England allows them to see the function of the foot while wearing the shoes.
