WOMEN AND SHOES

Better yet, one reversible belt.

My wife has more shoes than I could ever care to count.

I guess I'm not a manly man because I have a sh*tload of shoes.

I like them.

I'm usually wearing jeans and so shoes give me an opportunity to distinguish my look.

I also have a sh*tload of watches for the same reason.

I don't think it's "interest".

I think this actually started on Saturday in a conversation with a friend who has multiple multiple pairs of Merrell hiking sandals. Nothing to do with heels or fashionable/stylish shoes.

You're like hamburgboy - shoes for every reason and season

Hamburgboy also has more outdoor vests with pockets than just about anyone - other than our friend with the Merrell sandals.

Everyone's got their 'thing'.

I didn't want to wear ballroom dance shoes on stage ... but I was supposed to wear something gold and sparkly on my feet

Nice and sparkly.

I don't think there is anything unmanly about liking shoes or vests for that matter.

Just like I don't think it means you are a flighty female to admire shoes - or to collect them as the case may be. I can't call myself a collector...much too practical for that - but I do look and sigh a lot. My closet is no big enough for so many shoes.

That's a very nuanced detail for you to have noticed

Then men have more shoes than I do. And if I have heels, they are minute.

I own about ten pairs of shoes, including runners, high heels, flats and sandals. Also two pairs of steel-capped boots. I don't particularly enjoy shopping, so only buy shoes when they need replacing.

All that's needed is a couple of pumps and bingo a fetish.

Based on what I've read, scientifically speaking, women's looks (facially) are higher on the evolutionary scale than men. Meaning eons ago, women had male facial features, and men looked quite brutish. So, women today can have female features, and men look like what we call masculine. Oddly, I am seeing some males today that sort of have female features. What this means to me is that women are just ahead of men on the evolutionary scale, and their ideosyncrasies are just the price we have to pay, as a species, to keep evolving.

But, the schtick with many shoes might reflect, in some cases, the awareness that more than one male is a foot fetishist. That is why they are wo-men (they wo'ed the man).

It's shame there are not reversible shoes.

At one time shoes were neither left nor right. Which seems practical, because you rotate them the way you do your tires.
Wikipedia-
Until around 1800, shoes were made without differentiation for the left or right foot. Such shoes are now referred to as "straights".[18] Only gradually did the modern foot-specific shoe become standard.
