Okay. But 1) I am 6' and do not feel the need to be 6'7" unless it's part of a costume and 2) my husband doesn't care about shoes in the least, so 3) I do not spend money on stripper shoes. Also 4) most of them are very clunky and would make me look like Frankenstripper.
The only sneakers I have are what I wear to work out, and to work out only (i.e. I don't wear sneakers to the grocery store, etc.) Old workout shoes get retired to be yardwork shoes.
Seriously, the OP can't know very many women and with an attitude that "women" in general do or have any particular characteristic other than biological spells trouble for any woman, 50 pairs of shoes or not, that decides to hook up with him!
I've noticed that when the "women love shoes" stereotype is brought up, most of the time, it seems to be only heels/heeled shoes that are qualified as "shoes".
It seems that other kinds of shoes, like sneakers/running shoes mentioned etc. don't get the same treatment.

I don't know about everyone else, but I tend to find heels more visually appealing. On my feet or off, they look more like works of art than a pair of flats. They're just more architectural.

Me too, mostly. I do have one pair of "street shoes" and lots of Puma flats. Regular tennis shoes are only used for working out and/or volunteering outside.

Not me. I am an equal opportunity shoe addict. I get flats with a few heels to break up the flats.
The flats do get replaced faster since I wear them more.

I like any shoes I think are cute.
How long do the flat shoes usually last relative to heels?
Since flat shoes are seen more as utilitarian or street wear for most women, they are seen as more expendable and replaceable (eg. women don't seem to get emotionally attached to say flat sandals or running shoes, compared to heels that are fancier, and treated for more formal occasions).
