Quote HistoryQuoted: Men wearing flip flops in public is gross, pathetic and feminine. I lived at the beach for over 10 years. I went weeks/months without putting on shoes. Wearing shoes at the beach or in a beach town is gross, pathetic and smells of faggotry. |

Wearing flip flops isn’t nearly as effeminate as worrying about what footwear other men wear.

I mixed it up today.
Wore sneakers today at Universal Studios then switched to flip flops for the Volcano Bay Aquatic park. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: 100 years ago nobody wore flip flops, and nobody was gay. Now lots of people wear flip flops and lots of people are gay. Coincidence? I think not. Why you no waraji like the samurai?  |

I don’t like the feeling of my feet not being protected/covered. I wear shoes everywhere except in bed. I have house shoes if I get up at night to go to the bathroom. I’m always worried Im going to get caught up in a firefight without my shoes on like Bruce did in the Christmas documentary.
I have a banana hammock that matches my house shoes that I wear on the nights I get that special “feeling” that it’s about to go down in my neighborhood. On the off nights I just sleep nude. I’d show you guys pics but you would just get jealous. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: The VC took America to task in jap flaps. I asked one of my GF's family members if they would make sandals out of a set of take off used tires I had, went over like a fart in church. I was being serious too, I sort of figured Hankook AT tires would make a good sole. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: One of the deadliest men I know looks like a surf bum who wears flip flops and shorts 24/7, 365. He used to wear a uniform on-duty, when not wearing flip-flops, and smoked 5 badguys at last count. So, what you are saying is that he used to be a man. |

I'm not a fan of the fashion of flip flops for either men or women... I've never had a pair of them myself and I think they would very much limit what I was able to do, same as if I wasn't wearing any shoes at all.
Also, I've never had a pair of slippers as I feel very similar about them. |

I've seen tons of people get them caught on the bar foot bar or stool and eat shit when they tried to get up. Both have happened to me, my solution was to quit wearing flip flops, and quit drinking. |

Flip flops were brought to the US by veterans returning from the pacific in WWII. That should pretty much answer the question.

I can't stand flip flops. They feel awful, I can't stand that thing between my toes, and they actively try to trip me or twist my ankle when I walk in them. Worst shoes ever invented.

Quote HistoryAhh, Winter Boots! I was considering new flip flops today, but I just didn’t have the energy. My current pair is paper thin in the heel, not good in the shop, I’m going to get stuck for sure from some lathe or mill shrapnel. Don’t think they’ve affected my testosterone levels. Neither does the wife. She wishes. |

I wear jeans and boots for work all day long, often more that 14 hours a day.
When I’m home, I’m usually barefoot. Flip flops if I’m not. Can’t speak whether to it lowers testosterone. I’m 39 and horny as fuck. Wife can vouch. |

I went to the liquor store after work this evening. Saw a "man" in line ahead of me at the register wearing nuthugger shorts, like something from the 1960s NBA, and flip flops. "His" toes were painted and beglittered. "He" bought a fifth of Bird Dog - so not terrible taste in booze, unless it was flavored. I was trying not to stare, but it was a bit jarring.
ETA toenails, to be specific, not the actual toe skin. The skin was pale and hairy compared to the dark blue and purple nail polish. |

Shoes are bad for your feet. They atrophy the muscles and ligaments. Your feet need to be flexed and used. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: No, but worrying about what other men wear on their feet does lower your testosterone. Not true. The sandal thing is an indication of the half-gay. I myself wear the heavy duty testosterone sapping Crocs. That is because i exude such an overload if T that the drain of the Crocs keeps near normal levels. Also out of too many married women's beds, jail and death. |

This is actually pretty on point (except for walking in parking lots at the beach or hotel-pool). One of the worst head injuries I ever got was from a shitty pair of flip flops that folded on me, I busted my ass on a sidewalk, face was all fucked up, ear, behind my ear. Now, I WAS drunk, but… I know people who wear the damn things in clubs. |
