LMAO!!!
Somebody's a little sensitive I see. But then, that would make
sense.... lol
Foot-art, red strappy sandals, and rainbow sandals (do you have
a "rainbow coalition" sticker on your car too?) are all *quite*
effeminate. The fact that they are in a men's size is irrelevant.
Go ahead, get all pissy and throw a fit all you like, it won't change
the fact that the pics you showed are anything BUT masculine, and
will simply put most guys off of the idea, rather than drawing them
into it. That's a fact.
FWIW - I have one that I rather happen to like, and so do the women
in my area. But it's 1, it's masculine, and it's only ever worn with
masculine styled sandals.
Even the simple addition of 1 extra ring changes that from attractive
and cool, to "too much". I've experienced it. I know.
I would like to see such things gain more acceptance. They way you do
it will ensure that it does not.
Sorry, you don't have to like it, and you can hate the messenger all
you want. But if this is the way you react to things, I would suggest
some Midol. ;) lol
