Jim expected to be uncomfortable wearing such extreme high heels. He was surprised that they were not difficult to wear. After a few moments of standing on his toes, he noticed that his feet seemed longer. He then noticed that his thighs were thicker. With those changes, he should have been towering over Sharon. When he looked again at his legs, he realized that the proportions were changing.
It was true that his feet were becoming longer, and the other changes were compensating. His calves were becoming shorter and thinner. His thighs were getting thicker, and more muscular. Just as a test, he tried to stretch upwards -- was he getting taller? For all that effort, he got a mystery wrapped in a surprise.
"Sharon," he said, "do you mind if I take my shirt and pants off to see whats going on?"
"Ha," she replied, "what's the matter? Usually you don't ask if you can take my clothes off, let alone your own."
Jim was thinking that himself. There was no pain, no discomfort, but what was happening was quite odd. He removed his shirt first and looked carefully at his torso. "Good," he thought, "no changes there." He looked again to be sure and realized that his nipples and chest had grown. He was a little worried as he touched his chest, afraid that he might be growing breasts. Instead, he found that it was simply that his pecs had become enlarged ad rock hard. Just to be sure, he touched a nipple and found that it was not only larger but also more sensitive.
Turning to Sharon, he asked her what she saw, could she could see a difference? She looked thoughtful and answered, "It looks like the health club membership is finally paying off. She walked around him to see him from all sides. Your butt looks better, firmer somehow and your hair is fuller in the back and sides. Checking closer, she saw that his hairline didn't end at the base of his skull. Instead, it continued down his neck and back ending in a sort of widow's peak about 2 or 3 inches below the base of his neck. "Jim," she asked, How does it feel when I run my fingers through your hair?"
He answered, "It feels right. Just like it belonged there."
Sharon asked him, "Well, what about what was worrying you?"
Jim thought a moment and began to remove his pants. He felt a little unsteady and sat down to finish. His legs looked OK, but as he thought, the proportions were now wrong. Heavily muscled thighs, shorter than before; thin calves, also shorter; and feet now very thin/narrow and almost as long as his calves. He stood up and tried to take a step or two.
As before, he couldn't straighten or extend his legs. At first, he had trouble keeping his balance and needed to stay near furniture as a crutch. As he continued for a few minutes, his confidence returned and he was walked unassisted.
Sharon pointed out that when she began to use high heels, she had similar troubles. Jim replied that this seemed to be different. He was putting his full weight on his toes and wondered how that could be possible.
Jim need to see what else was going on. He decided to ...
