Fuzzy Bear it supports stereotypes about Marie(She didn’t abandon or neglect her people she was from Austria and the people of France hated her. others in the comments go more in-depth). and doesn’t even start when high heels were invented. It just starts when Eurocentric elitism restricted high heels to the French elite. And then skips to when Eurocentric sexism and capitalism used pornography to bring high heels back in the mainstream. Also.... the images of feet binding at the end are totally irrelevant and separate.
@@angelkingsley5299 it did start with a verse about when they were invented tho, "it started with the Persian cavalry" high heels were indeed invented by persians and later on brought on to europe where white ppl popularized them
My sister is in this video! She is on the right from 38 to 42. She is also dancing at 3:01 It is so weird to see my sister in something like this. Also this video is amazing
right? And why white people always claiming they created shit? that's such a white whashes euro-north-america-centred video! lol not even truth at all missed all parts af heels history thats not placed in white feet, exept for that chinese foot binding that suddenly popped up on screen for no reason at all for its completely not related to the subject. and, poor Marie Antoinette can't have a break lol
@@blameitoncapitalism do you understand where persia (iran) is located on a map? and do you understand why persia was mentioned in the very beginning of the video? or does that not compute for ya
Love this so much, love Dorian Electra's work and the makeup/cloths are always on point! Great job! A song about the history of menstruation wold be amazing as well.
Why include the Chinese foot binding in a video/song about high heels? They had absolutely nothing to do with the high heel, they were flats that the women had their feet broke and bound to have a smaller foot, rendering them incapable of walking. Because smaller feet were a status symbol, the smaller the feet, the higher up you were. I'm guessing actual research wasn't included but just a thing to spread propaganda.
@Amber Sullivan Damn. Salty are we? by the by...Note: The only way I can see the binding vaguely having anything to do with heels is that both caused harm and were for "fashion"... but in completely different ways. considering the foot binding rendered their feet useless and incidentally needing people to carry the women. Also, It was women that did that to other women because they stood firm within their own ideal of beauty and tradition. Heels are not part of a tradition. They are for pure aesthetics that women have decided to put upon themselves.
truth betold you should feel free to wear whatever you want I'm 5'10 and I wear heels alot it makes me feel empowered and confident and anyone should have that kind of feeling despite what others say
I didn't see the "music video" in the end of the video title so I got so confused when they started singing. I laughed so hard.
Nevaeh ; Same.
Same.
Me.too.. I thought it was like a mini doc lol
@@biscuitgidoni2804 yea same lol
I was expecting something in documentary format tbh
i legit thought it was a documentary
Bitch it is
Maeva Iyahcootee me too
It is...
Same here hahahahsh
Same tho
Dorian Electra is CONSTANTLY KILLIN IT.
So glad you're enjoying it. We LOVE Dorian Electra!
@@RIOTR29 what happaned to you
This comment aged perfectly well!
"The feet of the elite, smell like treason"
Okay, but that line is amazing
22DanceFun sameeee
Wow! Makings of a commercial for Prada or Louboutins
SpellboundTonight or Jimmy Choo
Jesse Mehaffey yess!😹
Pre-flamboyant educational videos of Dorian are the height of perfection that every Edutainment UA-camr wants to be
I will never get over Dorian as Marie Antoinette
I thought the dark part was going to be about how butchers wore them so they didn’t slip on blood.
Huh?
Rihanna Fenty Butchers used to wear heels so they wouldn’t slip on blood.
@@batmanlikespizza2541 oh
Dude same! I didn’t even know it was a music video lol
Me too
The tiny guillotine chopping off the heel at 1:47 is damn genius
A bop. Not historically accurate. But a Bop.
Angel Kingsley
Tell me, what’s not historically accurate ?
Fuzzy Bear it supports stereotypes about Marie(She didn’t abandon or neglect her people she was from Austria and the people of France hated her. others in the comments go more in-depth). and doesn’t even start when high heels were invented. It just starts when Eurocentric elitism restricted high heels to the French elite. And then skips to when Eurocentric sexism and capitalism used pornography to bring high heels back in the mainstream. Also.... the images of feet binding at the end are totally irrelevant and separate.
Fuzzy Bear also it randomly shoehorns femininism and proqueer sentiment at the end. Which has not to do with the historical accuracy of high heels.
The lotus foot binding was accurate, I was surprized they included with history, not many channels includes diversity. 👌👌👌✋🤟👍👍

woah
Oh

Who else was expecting some sort of documentary
People say they hate gays and men used to wear high heels and makeup 😂
Jason FACT
And wigs!
Lmao
nah it mostly French men that did this you would never seen a man from England doing this kinda shit back in the day lmao

Petition for Dorian Electra to make a soundtrack to the entire world's history
Dorian fucking slaying , her songs are the key of a new society that is open mind
They use they/them pronouns.
Dorian uses they/them
@@urdadsleftasshole69 yeah but this comment was made before Dorian began identifying with they/them pronouns (at least I think...I could be wrong)
@@jinxxx9746 oh i see
Hey could you change the pronouns to they/them
You have the poetic charm of Kate Bush and the intellect of Bjork - how have you not been playing on every radio already!?!?
I should be doing homework but ya know im learning something
Pink Elephants same
Here from refinery 29. Such a catchy and informative song! Reminds me of horrible histories.
yasss dorian electra love you
Dorian would absolutely slay Horrible Histories if they brought it back to TV.
Horrible histories but glam
catchy, but not quite accurately informative
Not very informative High Heels go back even further.
Director: How many high heels do you need in this mv
Marie Antoinette: Yes
Informative and hypnotic. I really like all the different looks they do in this video!
Love the aesthetic but im guessing it wasnt meant to be historically accurate lol
Oh
right? And why white people always claiming they created shit? that's such a white whashes euro-north-america-centred video! lol not even truth at all missed all parts af heels history thats not placed in white feet, exept for that chinese foot binding that suddenly popped up on screen for no reason at all for its completely not related to the subject. and, poor Marie Antoinette can't have a break lol
Lizandra Barboza are you really going to make this about race about a song about heels
Good Bye True! This is not about race, we are just here to remove social gender construction 🙅🏾♂️
@@blameitoncapitalism do you understand where persia (iran) is located on a map? and do you understand why persia was mentioned in the very beginning of the video? or does that not compute for ya
Am i the only one who did not realise this was a music video till the music started playing? I'm dieing 🤣🤣
Omg I've watched this video like 50 times, it's SO GOOD
Same lmao
Same 😂
I never get tired of it
why the hell am i only seeing this now
Same
wow these men wearing high heels in war and i can’t even dance in some of them💀
omg i listened to this years ago and rediscovered it today as a recent dorian electra fan, they came so far!
Why did this get recommended to me?
More importantly why does this exist?
Most importantly why do I love it.
Dorian Electra teaches me more things about history than my history teacher 💖
Ok but I can't be the only one that watched this off recommendations for fun
Same lmao
A bop
LOVE the voice and style
thanks, Ambar!!!
The best dance move I have ever seen. 0:56
This was ahead of its time
Can men plz start wearing high heels again and steal them back? No? Okay...😂😂😂😂
yeah they do!! it's now mostly in drag, high fashion and/or some dancers, but that's a start.
Jamie M I wear heels and I'm a guy I wear them casually
im on it !
the gays got you girl
No one:
Jamie: no? Okay if you say so
Love this so much, love Dorian Electra's work and the makeup/cloths are always on point! Great job! A song about the history of menstruation wold be amazing as well.
Dorian somehow slays both masc and fem
THEY'VE COME SO FAR
watching in 2020, as an Dorian Electra fan and i must say, wow
dorians transformation has been fun to follow tbh
Oh hell yeah Dorian

I feel like it's to show that people are suffering for fashion but idk
like high heels it made life of women difficult.. just guessing

Butchers also wore them to keep blood off their shoes and pants
(Like the actual shoe part)
Which part?
This is old but amazing omg
I like the tiny shoe guillotine 😂
When your room is cluttered with as much unnessisary as your youtube history you should think about throwing some stuff away.
This was a rollercoaster. I felt... shame and then.... didn't..?
Dorian is so much more gorg now.
I mean they're always changing their look, even within this video, I'd say they're just as pretty with each transformation
i understand this has a story behind it but i actually just love the song LMAO
I can’t be the only one that wants the shoes in 2:00 SOOO BADLY!
We had a picture analysis today, and it was an impromptu speech. I picked a picture of heels and I told them this.
THIS IS AMAZING
I love heels, I knew the history but seeing in a vid rocked!. I'm 5'7 and wear them every chance I get, eat your heart out ....
Oh, my... Glob! UwU
It's so heartwarming! It's touching that Dorian loved the aesthetics of the Victorian era back then too!
Dorian's whole career is my gender
they look GORGEOUS!!
Wow awesome message!
maaaaan dorian is so pretty
This video was heela good!
Who knew Dorian would be part of Rebecca Black’s Friday remix
I love that these songs are catchy and educational. It’s fantastic!
This will never get old
Let talk about Marie Antoinette heels I'm in love I need those in life
I think I might die in those heels.
Omg Dorian was SUCH A BABYYYYYY here 😩😩😩😍
Dorian was the best choice for this
No doubt about that
I keep thinking these are like buzz feed videos
but I'm not complaining Dorian slays ✨👌🏻
If I were a wrestler this would be my intro song.
Same
this needs to be viral
I WAS LIKE WHY THIS SOUNDS AS A DORIAN ELECTRA SONG AND THEN SAW IT LFMSISIS
This a edutainment banger!
i'm in love with her voice :)
Can't get enough of this girl !! I need more
this song will now be stuck in my head for several months
I wish school was like this
I read it as the 'Dank' history of high heels
im 5'11" never been able to wear high heels without the world making me feel like shit so i dont even bother.
truth betold you should feel free to wear whatever you want I'm 5'10 and I wear heels alot it makes me feel empowered and confident and anyone should have that kind of feeling despite what others say
just step on 'em
Now I want some high heels damn it!
Welcome to another episode of "why is this in my UA-cam recommendations"
Intéressant
This was surprisingly acurate
I come back to this song atleast once a week
This is so amazing... I'm so thankful i discovered !!!
I'm so confused by this....but I love it?
This is amazing!!!
You have a beautiful voice, and you have done great job
Dorian Electra's songs made me quit History class . Yaass slay QUEEN !!
2:34 u can see the Chinese cruel traditions of making little girls feet smaller
i love this song and i love seeing my pal charli in it ❤️
they were slaying before we even knew
Beauty is Pain👠👣👡💁🏾
I came here from a multifandom MEP called "L E G S"
what a coincidence
Why is the song good!!!!, This is why people judge me:/. Also I think the singer kinda sounds like MO in some parts.
Why was I humming this the day after I watched this lol
It's really catchy lol I did the same thing after 10 min
I did not expect them to start singing
It reminds me of the Ku-too movement in Japan ! Great song :)
Come for answers, stay for A BOPPIN MUSIC
I love Dorian
Sadly M A is not pictured well once again.... except this faux pas, another delicious video from Dorian
I'd unironically wear all of these tbh
Can't believe they made song about edgelords.
this is a history lesson and a fun jingle
Where can I get the Marie Antoinette shoes
sooo catchy
