I'm maybe 1/2 an inch taller than my wife. As a result, she usually won't wear any heels. But then, my wife is Chinese and cares about her husband. More than I do. If she was caba, she'd wear the tallest heels possible to let me know my place. Below.

that's bs. caba never nags to remind the lowly of their place. the order is natural, heels or barefoot.

I didn't know your wife was Chinese, was she born in China or Canada? I'd say if she was born in Canada she qualifies as CABA.

This brings up an interesting question. If a woman naturalizes and has US citizenship bestowed upon her is there additional paperwork to obtain CABA status? Is there like a try out or anything? Maybe some training classes?

Born in Hong Kong. Which I have to say because I'm not allowed to say "China" Moved to Canada at age 7. Granted HK was under British control when she was born. She's a little of both I guess.
