Q: Since this September's WITCiH Festival is titled 'The State of Gender?', it seemed only fitting to ask a question about *drum roll*... High heel shoes! So here it is: The first high heel wearers are believed to have been men, sometime around the ninth / tenth century. The heel was reportedly developed specifically for riding, to keep the rider's foot from slipping out of the stirrups. But, which calvary are said to have started this trend?
A: .1) Life Guards .2) Persian Cavalry .3) Queen's Royal Irish Hussars .4) Marlborough Cavalry
