SHOES: A women's affair
I just had to share an observation of mine that has served to entertain me for a life time. I get a kick out of what women will do to have fashionable feet.
Girls will buy anything that is offered without thinking about whether or not the shoe is going to last long enough to pass the store door, and of course Carol and Marilyn say "90 days and the style is out." I mean "style"? Good Grief!
List time. Observations related to women and their shoes:
1. There are really only a few styles of women's shoes. The difference is the junk that is glued on them and that is not limited in any way. Then you got your high heel, not so high heal and the "flat". Then you modify the heal to the wedge, spike, boxy, geometric, "death pointy", and the "grand ma's." Any variety of this will work.
2. Women have no regard for safety when selecting shoes. Some of these shoes should carry a warning label because of the height of the heal or sole.
3. Women have no regard for the way their feet look in some shoes. I mean when your toes run out the end of the shoe a good 1 1/2 inches where your foot looks like a Golden Temple monkey's foot gripping the shoe, it's time to let those babies good or it's time to confess that you were under the influence of the shopping gods when you bought them.
4. It is possible to determine the price or comfort of women's shoes by the noise they make when a women walks. Whether it is a "slap" or a "slappy dap", girls please!
I'm not sure because I'm one of those people who wear things out, shoes included, but there seems to be a lot of shoes boxes in every girl's closet to justify a movement to give some to those children in foreign lands who are without shoes... that is if they would wear them.
