"Walk A Mile In Her Shoes"

SignonSanDiego.com is an interesting website that features regular news stories and multimedia but also allows people to post their own work. Browsing around the site there was a video that although it wasn't amazingly edited or very professional it was nonetheless wonderful to watch.

The YWCA of San Diego County held an event called "Walk A Mile In Her Shoes" where men participated in a mile-walk wearing women's high heels to raise money and awareness about domestic violence. The video includes fun anecdotes from participants, many who wore socks with the high heels to avoid getting blisters.

The video was interesting because it presented an unique event that took place and gave people insight into what it was like to be there. This was definitely a story that was perfect for video because people definitely enjoy the sight of grown men struggling to walk in women's heels. The video also brings awareness about domestic violence that the YWCA representative said increases during times of economic struggles. What an awesome event!
