Never knew this:

GDF?

But anyways, never worn these, they're pretty much for sissies.

Its not really a serious debate thread, thats why I didnt put it in the GDF. I wear flip flops all the time, except for when I am at work. I wouldnt say they are for sissies, I see guys wearing them left and right.

OK!

I wonder if the same applies for regular sandals?

I hate guys who wear flip flops.. I like to call them something that goes along with this gesture > happywank

They're pretty much laughed at.

Flip Flops suck bawls.

Pretty much.

You know you guys have at least a pair. admit it.

Barefooters also run the risk of never being invited to an Asian home, because they can't take off their feet. haermm

I must say the report is right, at least in my case. I never wear flip flops out of the house. Actually, I can't stand going barefoot at any point. If I'm barefoot, I'm either in the shower or in the bed. Some guys enjoy them, but I'm not one to ever wear them out of the house.

But I completely understand what they mean when they say it changes the way we walk. All my shoes are what most would consider dress shoes and I only own one pair of sneakers. I've nearly broken my neck dozens of times, actually falling all the way down the stairs in my last apartment, because I simply become walking retarded when I wear flip flops. I bought them when the craze started (they're a very nice pair of embossed leather flip flops) but it rained one day when I was wearing them and flip flops are deadly when they're leather and they get wet. Your foot has absolutely zero traction inside the flip flop when they're wet. Plus, when your feet sweat the leather stinks and they make rude noises when you walk.

I imagine if we lived in a culture where the flip flop (or whatever cultural terminology others have for them) was the footwear of preference then we'd be much more skilled and our bodies would be able to handle them. But we've all grown up in a culture with form-fitting shoes and we've all developed accordingly.

Gotta buy some new tennies though.

Well, I tried to wear them out in the world. But like I said, it rained and I almost killed myself getting on the bus. And I'm certainly not going to wear the foam flops. I would wear them out of the house if I didn't suddenly become one of Jerry's kids when I wear them. Bottom line is that I just prefer my dress shoes. I know how to walk in those.

I like guys who wear flip flops - as long as their feet are clean

The only time I'd ever consider wearing them is when I'm going to the beach. Even then, I'm just going to take them off, so I'd rather leave all footwear behind.

Men and women typically wear them where I'm from. Some even during winter.

I don't particularly care for them.

Nope, sorry.

I will admit, I do have a pair. They're really squishy, and are extremely comfortable, and I do like showing off my feet, 'cause I think I have pretty toes. I do also like wearing heels(showing off toes...), but those are a hassle, and don't look good with my favorite outfit of jeans and a tee.

Plus my flip flops have a giant skeleton foot print on each one, so I basically couldn't resist.

I know they aren't the best for my posture, or for myself in general, but hey, I am absolutely not a klutz with them on. I'm always like a cat!

I hate flip-flops.

Flip flops suck

uncomfortable.

I wear mine in the shower.

I don't really wear flip-flops. I have some but i bought them cause i liked them and their very comfy.

I wear regular sandals, never really liked flip-flops.

New airwalks are in order.
