‘I love high heels. Even if they don’t fit perfectly, I keep wearing heels in an attempt to look longer and slimmer’. This comment made the Italian urologist Maria Cerruto in the Journal of European Urology.

She responded to a sent in letter to an article by the Swede Jarl Flensmark, who had made a statement about high heels wearing women were more likely to become schizophrenic. ‘On behalf of all high heels wearing women, I tried to find something healthy instead and I have succeeded’ she wrote in the comment. The scientist discovered in her study were 36 women in participated, that wearing high heels causes your pelvic muscles to become stronger and better able to contract. And that leads, among other things, for more pleasure between the sheets.
