Boots are a common female fashion these days, so the term is now usually only used for the original type of dominatrix S&M boot — very high stiletto boots, generally of thigh length and in either black or white or bright shiny colours.
The film Kinky Boots was released in 2005 and told the story of an ailing company of high quality traditional men's shoe manufacturers that found a new lease on life making high heeled footwear for transgender people and drag queens.

Famous quotes containing the word present:
“We are always acting on what has just finished happening. It happened at least 1/30th of a second ago. We think we’re in the present, but we aren’t. The present we know is only a movie of the past.”
—Tom Wolfe (b. 1931)
“Thus hulling in
The wild sea of my conscience, I did steer
Toward this remedy, whereupon we are
Now present here together.”
