Men soldiers given women’s uniforms/soldiers in heels

“For decades, female soldiers have had to wear combat uniforms designed with the male body in mind. But turnabout is fair play. The Army is now testing on men combat uniforms designed for women.”

‘High Heels Give Soldiers a New Perspective’

“watching burly Soldiers attempting to walk a mile in high heels … a bold statement against domestic violence.”

“There is so much violence in the Army," said Ortiz. "It doesn't need to be happening on the homefront, too."

And now we all feel real good.

Sometimes, symbolism sucks. This was one of those times.

Call me insensitive to symbolic feelings.
