I thought watches were adopted by men for practicality.
I guess people before WW2 would take watches out of pockets.
What about high heels? Originally for men, eh?
Not exactly. I suspected it: Roman high-soled shoes or high footwear (bushkins) were also worn by sex workers to identify themselves to potential clients in the streets.
I read that high(er?) heels were popularized by Persian cavalry. They help you to keep stable while shooting a bow in the saddle.
