The Independent Uganda: You get the Truth we Pay the Price
Kampala, Uganda | THE INDEPENDENT | Ashley Maxwell-Lam, a project manager for a major bank in Sydney, Australia, has been wearing six-inch stilettos to work for about a year and claims they make him feel empowered.
The 30-year-old Ashley has always loved women in high-heels and the power they exude, so he decided to adopt the same footwear in order to feel empowered as well.
His manager didn’t really know what to say when the 30-year-old told her that he planned on wearing high-heels to work, but he let her know that he was very serious about it.
Ashley, who is openly gay, says he loves the attention he gets when he’s trotting around in his manly suit and high-heel shoes, but it’s not why he does it.
He just loves the “contrast between masculinity and femininity” and the way it makes people question things.
