English women should be banned from wearing sandals. They have huge feet , they scare the hell out of Ramses. You'd be sitting on a bus, underground or the reception of an office looking to the floor minding your own business when all of a sudden you're confronted with this fearsome beast. It feels like the toes want to creep out and crawl towards you and attack you. SCREAM!!
Please do us all a favour, if you're larger than a UK shoe size 6, then kindly refrain from wearing sandals or anything that shows your huge toes. I might, just might be able to give you special dispensation to size 7 if, and only if you're exceptionally beautiful. If you absolutely have to wear sandals, then please make sure your feet are well pedicured. Oftentimes you find the toes have outgrown the nail polish and you end up with the front part of the toe polished and the back part, closer to the cuticle not. Either polish the whole bloody thing or remove the polish altogether, please, please.
Sorry, had to get this off my chest. Phew, feels good. OK, now resume your normal discussion.
Happy Easter everybody I know I won't be having a happy one, with all those monsters roaming the earth Posts: 444 | Registered: Apr 2004

roflma... Well sorry, I am a UK 7-8 depending on the brand. But I guess being my height having small feet would be just stupid, I would keep falling over
To be fair though if a dude is too busy looking at my feet I would be more concerned about my face!
And I do pedicure...
Am I in or out?

Hmmm, well, first I hope you do understand that this was meant half-heartedly, which if you look at the empty half means half-seriously as well, lol. Now since you've confessed your sin of size 7-8, and given the blessed days of Easter, you are forgiven. Get in before I change my mind Posts: 444 | Registered: Apr 2004

Absolutely!!! We're have you been hiding, you're my cinderella, lol Forget the queen of hearts, I'll make you the queen of feet.
BTW, I have an office mate who's size 3 1/2, and she's not particularly small. I mean she's about 5'2" but well, umm, soft round the edges if you know what I mean (the size of Brazil, again if you know what I mean) Posts: 444 | Registered: Apr 2004

Are you serious, or are you joking? That's a genuine question, no disrespect, honestly.
If you are indeed size 10, then I apologise if you were offended by my post. I imagine such a size would be rather unusual among women. Having said that, I just remembered I was in the tube one time, again looking at the floor as they do (well I was told the English avoid eye contact, sometimes by hiding behind a broadsheet), when I noticed a huge pair of feet. There's this model of shoes with a pointed front that makes the feet appear several sizes bigger (don't know who's the idiot who came up with such a design). Anyway, I honestly thought s/he was a tranny, but the lady who was with me assured me that the person had a face of a woman (trannies often have different facial bone structure, you see them in the pride parades). So that woman must've been 12 UK.
BTW, I'm 5'11" and I'm UK size 7-7 1/2, so a bit on the small side myself. I assure you though that's the only small thing about me Posts: 444 | Registered: Apr 2004

I'm not joking - I have a devil of a job getting shoes to fit that don't look like coal barges - especially as shoe manufacturers tend to assume that women with long feet also have narrow feet.
Those who know me would never guess my foot size by looking and often assume I'm about an 8.
I'm 5ft 10"
PS I hate seeing small feet on guys - I don't know if you are a guy or a gal or if you are offended so sorry back Posts: 5593 | From: Egypt | Registered: Dec 2005

Men are way more icky than women, to even the score. I remember going on a tour and there was this guy on it who insisted on wearing open toe sandals (no white socks underneath either). He had the worst fungal nail infection I've seen in my life - they were a most impressive mustard yellow. I think that was the most honkworthy thing I ever saw, and I saw it a lot that week.
Feet make me feel a little queasy at the best of times TBH.

yep, totally agree, I tend not to make assumptions either. I mean about gender, age, religion, nationality, species, or which planet the poster resides on Well, I take back the bit about species. It's probably safe to assume that everybody around here is human. I don't buy this thing about a Chimpanzee typing long enough would end up with the complete works of Shakespeare (I think it's called the infinite monkey theorem or something).

this thread really depressed me. My feet are probably the only part of my anatomy that I'm not embarrassed about. Now we're all sitting around gloomily looking at our feet,wondering if we are getting judged on them every time we take our boots off. Pedicure teesik!!!

I'm the same height, my feet are smallish (European 38/UK 5) and I don't fall over.
I disagree that big feet are ugly though. If a foot is pretty or ugly does not depend on the size.
Going without socks most of the year, like in Egypt, is really not that great for feet. And I see many horrible feet here all the time.
But then, keeping your feet nice looking is not that much of an effort. Use cream/oil/lotion regularly and a pumice stone every once in a while, keep your nails clean and short, that's it.

Pointless fact: Look at your inner forearm, from your wrist to your inner elbow. Looks big, doesn't it? Measure your foot against it. Exactly the same length.
Full of useless information, me.

NOOOO, that's a tad too pervy for me. I never understood why some people feel the need to post their clips online for the whole world to see, exhibitionists in general. Are they looking for validation of their beauty/sexiness? Even more troubling are those who watch them, you feel there's something "curtain twitching" about it. It's as if peeking on someone off-guard. If it's porn, I can understand (not necessarily condone) it, it's professional; you pay the money and get to watch, etc. But the thought of someone trawling the net for sexual gratification by watching others (who are not porn stars) just doesn't feel right. You can imagine him (I think it's mostly a him) holding the mouse with one hand, and well, the snake with the other, lol.
As for the woman in the clip, sorry I don't find her feet beautiful. They are well looked-after, I'll give you that but the tendons (or ligiaments or whatever they call) are too prominent, so are the veins. Nope, not my sort of thing, sorry. I think she's probably more on the mature side, I'd say maybe late 30s/early 40s. Just wondering. BTW, that's the ridiculous model of shoes I was talking about, the one that elongates the foot! I do like the bracellet and the toe rings by the way. The first time I saw the latter was on an Indian colleague many years ago. They weren't sexual in any way, she was a very respectable married woman, it's just part of the culture of her area of India.
PS: Can I ask you to please not to post more of such clips, there's something just wrong about them, dunno. I'm sure those who are after such a thing can find them! Probably as a woman you don't see anything wrong with it, but as a man there's something sexual about it. Yes men are dirty bastards, yes all they think about is sex.

Oh I am sooo sorry Cheeky. I understand your objection and dismay, as that combo is truly hideous.
I remember about 20 years back when I was living in Bahrain there was a phone in to talk about what turns you off about the opposite sex. Folk rang in about bad teeth, BO etc etc and I rang in with the socks and sandals thing! People look like complete tw@s dressed like this!!! Glad to know that as I have aged I still don't see this way of dressing to be acceptable
I have nicely new painted nails, pedicure and manicure all complete and ready for the pool but when I got there was CLOSED for a private party!!!
Damn it!
Shitty Stars for lunch I am guessing!

Happy Easter everybody I know I won't be having a happy one, with all those monsters roaming the earth
The thing I always wanted to get off my chest is -
I wonder if a large majority of your men never heard of dental hygiene ?
I came across so many Egyptian guys they had the most unclean and unpleasant teeth to look at. I am sure you can imagine what I am getting at. NASTY, NASTY!!! Seriously sometimes it just gave me absolutely the creeps!! SCREAMMMMMMMM!!!
I mean how difficult can it be to brush at least twice a day your teeth and use dental floss plus take regularly trips to the dentist for check-ups?
Please you Egyptian men with dirty teeth do us all a favor and don't speak to us, just don't open your mouth, please DON'T!! We don't want to see the atrocities in your mouth and be possibly traumatized forever.
Ramsis I do hope you own at least a toothbrush (and you know what to do with it). Have a good day. Posts: 30135 | From: The owner of this website killed ES....... | Registered: Feb 2004

I think you got a low self opinion man I see you standing all by yourself Unable to express the pain of your distress You withdraw deeper inside You alienate yourself And everybody else They wonder what's on your mind They got so tired of you And your self ridicule They wrote you off and left you behind
You sleep alone at night You never wonder why All this bitterness wells up inside you You always victimize So you can criticize yourself And all those around you
The hatred you project Does nothing to protect you You leave yourself so exposed You want to open up When someone says Lighten up You find all your doors closed Get yourself a break from self rejection Try some introspection And you just might find It's not so bad and anyway At the end of the day All you have is yourself and your mind The self hatred that blinds you Binds you grinds you keeps you down The world falls down around you You build up walls around you You wear disgust like a crown
If you could see the you that I see When I see you seeing me You'd see yourself so differently Believe me
I know the self doubt that runs inside your mind I know the self that treats you so unkind
If you could see the you that I see When I see you You would see things differently I assure you

yep, couldn't argue with that TL. and yep, I have a toothbrush and yes I know what to do with it, it's for cleaning the rim of your shoes of coures. It's the bit where the sole is fixed to the upper part. You brush round the perifery. What else do you use a toothbrush for, huh . After all I bought it from a place called "Boots", so what do you expect!!!
Seriously though, what really works for me, even better than brushing is using mouthwash just before you go to bed. You wake up with a really fresh breath.
I hope you have a mouthwash, and you know what to do with it. It shouldn't be swallowed! some women like to swallow, but you shouldn't swallow the mouthwash Posts: 444 | Registered: Apr 2004

Yep, I agree with that chap, big is beautiful! Well, to some extent, I mean for me Dawn French is a tad too big, but Nigella Lawson is mega hot. And it doesn't hurt that she's a good cook either, yum (in every sense of the word )
Nigella rules the universe (and my heart, hmm, and other bits of my anatomy as well!)
For heaven's sake, who would you have: Vicotria - size zero - Beckham, or Nigella - love those curves - Lawson. One is yuk and the other is yum!
BTW, I genuinely thought Leonard Cohen was a shoe brand , like Oscar de la Renta (whoever that is) and Vivienne Westwood. How ignorant of Ramses! But then I haven't been following the music scene for a looooong while.

As if women primp and polish themselves for you?
Anyhow Egyptian men can do everyone a favor and do something about that jock itch (groin itch), take showers daily, actually go into the dentist for a teeth cleaning to get rid of those horrendous tea stain build up, take the time to get a pedicure yourself (do something about toenail fungus it can be seen and smelt from 10 feet away), let alone wax your back before sunbathing or swimming.
Make sense to you?

Totally agree... this whole thread made my jaw drop.
Feet are meant for walking on, contact with the ground, they have a function and it's not to be decorative.
And women are not a collection of body parts that should be 'beautiful or alluring' .... they should functional and healthy like YOUR body parts... who gives an f*** what they look like.
Nor do women like being lied to... WTF??? and they believe men's lies? ego booster?... I'm spluttering with feminist indignation here...
Haven't read anything so patronising and demeaning in a long time...

Agreed. But I think people – women AND men – should keep their feet, hands, and any other body parts in a condition that other people do not get disgusted. Not talking about excessive grooming here, just basic hygiene and maintenance.
