There are many reasons why women will readily buy shoes that hurt their feet, although the foremost seems to be that they are simply willing to suffer to look good. Where men might be more concerned with functionality, women mainly choose their shoes as a way to make themselves feel good, and to make them look good to others.

On many occasions women will also have seen a particular pair of shoes that they wanted to get, and then eventually bought them sometime later. This often has the effect of making them want to force the shoes to work for them, even if wearing them is torture.

If someone has planned out an outfit in advance, and perhaps hasn't really worn in the shoes yet, then they will usually have little choice but to wear them anyway if they want their shoes and clothes to match each other. This is often seen in and outside of up market clubs, restaurants and red carpet events. Often women will even walk barefoot after the event is over beaus the shoes are so painful, although they still always wear them in the first place despite this.
