On the subject of your being confused between "men don't wear high heels" and "most men's shoes have a raised heel" - a colleague/friend of mine (woman) was wearing shoes and I remarked about them being high heels (can't remember exact context) and she got rather argumentative about the fact that they were just shoes, not high heels (heels were a good ~1inch raised). I guess my point is that any shoe raise your heel at least a tiny bit, so it depends where you draw the subjective line between "normal" and "high".
