Saskatchewan Realtors Lou Doderai and Kevin Wouters recently showed their support at the Walk a Mile in Her Shoes event, an international men’s march to stop rape, sexual assault and gender violence. It was staged by the North East Outreach & Support Services in Melfort, Sask.
Like many of the “walkers,” Doderai and Wouters expressed new-found respect for women who wear these shoes every day. “I know they make my legs look really long and shapely,” says Wouters, “but flats are just more practical.” Doderai said, “The shoes really complement any outfit, but I think I’m going to have to stick with what’s in my closet right now.”
On a serious note, both men agreed that the march was a great way to shine a light on a very dark subject that not many people are comfortable talking about.
Doderai is a past president of the Association of Saskatchewan Realtors and Wouters is the current vice president.
The event raised $18,000 for the cause.
