those who were seen dancing

As a fellow short person and heels wearer, I hear you. But there's also the question (with anything political) where what has no political statement attached to it for you is actually enforcing some bad situation (i.e. gender norms) when looked at in the total of, in this situation, everyone who wears heels making it look like that's a requirement of femalehood.

Ultimately, though, it's just something to think about.
