If high heels were always used in moderation, all the time, these issues would never even been brought up. Obviously, there's something more going on. I think that the social imperative that you "must" wear something that causes discomfort to "truly" look beautiful is something that we have to fight against. So you're right--it's not about the "elimination" of high heels--just of the way we look at beauty, the expectation to conform, all the time, and the excesses made in the name of "sexiness."
