    Women who cram their feet into pointed, high-heeled shoes have the worse feet - deformed toes, & stretched tendons.
    What about men who do that, Flossie?

      Some men's bits look worse than others in the cold light of day!
      However, I do have a weakness for the way men's hair curls around from the nape of their neck towards their big ears just above the shirt collar ...... I think that's rather lovely
      Unfortunately I have not feet, but paddles. God help Me, but I am a size 6 But they are not deformed, merely large. I dislike them, I wish I had dainty feet.

        Well not without the advice of a good libel lawyer, Flossie

        Anyone know of one? winkeye:

          Yes but then Anna there are those men whose ears grow enormous as they grow older, and it's the hair on and in their ears that rests on their collars....

            Oh dear. I wish you hadn't mentioned that, to be honest 8obs, if you are also going to mention nose hair - then I would rather you wouldn't!!

                Agreed - it's the high heels, not the gender of the wearer

                (I could never get a pair to fit )

                      Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
                      Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
                      Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."
