I own dozens of heels, but I never ever wear them. Let’s change that.

Hi. I'm Sheridan. I'm 5'11", a size 18, a Leo, and I barely wear heels.

Sheridan Watson for BuzzFeed

Sure, I've bought a ton of heels, but in recent years I've noticed how little I actually wear them. Here are some reasons why:

1.) I'm tall. I still remember one night when a date asked me why I was wearing heels since I "already have the height" — as if that's the only reason I would be wearing them. That's one way to kill your strut.

2.) I'm plus-size. I know I can't speak for everyone, but a lot of plus-size women could probably attest to the fact that growing up, we sometimes didn't want to draw attention to ourselves. And heels equals all the attention.
