Cadets at Temple University were threatened that their careers would be finished if they refused to participate in a feminist campaign to promote the completely debunked college rape culture myth by wearing red spray painted high heels. Imagine what ISIS or the Russian military is thinking when they see these images. Third wave feminism has poisoned EVERYTHING, even the U.S. Military. UPDATE: Infowars was contacted by a former US Army servicemember who told us that his unit – Delta Company, 1st Battalion, 2nd Infantry Regiment, 172nd Infantry Brigade – was also FORCED to participate in the ‘Walk a Mile in Her Shoes’ event in 2011. “I was deployed in Afghanistan during this time, but my comrades in the rear told me this event was a MANDATORY,” he writes. “As a former medic, I know that the only way out of this was to lie about injuries or pull some form of guard duty at this time.” CLICK FOR ENLARGEMENT.

An unlawful order for a few reasons: First such foot attire while performing military duties is harmful to a Soldier's feet, knees, and back. Second a commander cannot force a Soldier to wear clothing attire of the opposite sex. A commander CAN have a policy describing what 'proper attire' includes on his/her military installation (like no halter tops, cutoff jeans etc.) in public places like the PX or post bank. But he/she cannot prescribe the attire of the opposite sex as mandatory 'uniform' for an official event. If the Soldier, Airmen, Marine or Sailor voluntarily does so, then there is no foul other than destroying over two centuries of military tradition and good order and discipline. Lastly, and most important of the three reasons....This is just plain STUPID. Patton is rolling in his grave. Now I can see most of the Navy doing this voluntarily:)
No "order" was given. Don't believe things you read from Infowars.
It was mandatory for the U of Arizona.
Thanks....I did not see that. Edit: from your post: The whole thing is STUPID for whatever reason given. What is this modern day military coming to?
Regardless the ROTC commanders who even 'strongly suggested' such 'mandatory fun' will be in deep doo doo. Especially violating every uniform policy ever known. Making such modifications to the US Army uniform would at least require a regional ROTC commander (1 star General) approval. If that WAS approved by a regional commander, then he or she is in deep doo doo. Chief of Staff of the Army GEN (4 star) Ray Odierno would never put up with garbage like this.
The only COS of the US Army that I ever met was Schoomaker. I met him while I was working Robin Sage out of Bragg,and we talked for a little while. One thing I know from that meeting is how VERY heavily scheduled the life of a COS is,and that he is virtually a slave to the job with every waking instant scheduled,and a crew of bodyguards and assistants running all around him like moons around a planet to make sure he is where he needs to be when he needs to be there. One thing I am very sure of is that none of these people are even mildly amused about crap like this when it gets to the level it demands their attention and they have to fit a counseling session with some errant senior officer into their schedule between the other meetings they have to attend. I'm betting those are ass-chewings of an epic level. Schoomaker did not appear to me to be a man that would be amused about some idiot General needing counseling because he was abusing his troops and embarrassing the army at the same time. I doubt the guy in charge today is very different.
Odierno looks like Marlon Brando in Apocalyse Now. He has a 'soft' voice like the godfather (also Brando). He is a tall and big man (not fat) and former USMA (West Point) football player. Quite an imposing figure. I spent quite a few late evenings (2100-2300 hrs) outside his office in line to get target packets signed for bomb drops or artillery missions the next day while in Iraq in 2006-2007. That 'soft' voice sometimes turned into a fury and boomed through the marble walls of the palace HQs. Then you see red faced COLs and LTCs scurring out and guess what....I'm next:0 I always had my stuff together most of the time had one of his 'boys' and my boss come in with me to discuss other things. It would be hey boss need to talk to you but LTC RLH needs to talk first. One time when I went up he was on the balcony with a large cigar with a big blue smoke cloud around him unwinding after a day riding and flying around visiting units. I went over he asked if the intel was good, I said yes and gave him the reasons why. He put the cigar in his mouth signed the packet. Like a scene from the Godfather movie:)

An unlawful order for a few reasons...
The event was not mandatory for Temple cadets....
no command pressure had been applied to convince members to participate....
105 of the brigade's 120 members ignored it.

I will go back and dig further. ... but now it appears as though ROTC candidates at ASU were faced with a volunteer event that became mandatory.
