Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Due to a pituitary issue when I was younger I have maybe a bizarre world record of the smallest feet and hands on a fully grown man. My feet and hands are normal looking but very small. They were tiny as a baby and just never grew that big. Thought you all would find it interesting - I know it makes for good chat at parties!

Petite feet, feminine step

Sounds like a lady when he's walkin' in the room ๐ŸŽถ

Haha all good. Not sensitive at all! Just quirky.

One of the few times I've seen someone with a smaller shoe size than myself, having a woman's 5.5 or there abouts. But it's fine for the rest of me. Good luck! I hope they continue to uh. Be feet? Yep!

Don't worry, variation in a population is expected. Even if you're an outlier, that doesn't make you weird!

Absolutely no shade, dude. You seem like a chill guy.

But I have this stuck in my head because of this post youtube.com/watch?v=kDg0dklwW5g

Classic. No shade assumed.

Does having such small feet for an adult cause issues with foot pain? Since you need to buy children's shoes, do they properly support your feet and your adult weight? Are there any unexpected advantages to having such compact feet? (I occasionally have to traverse stairs sideways because of my feet.)

Do your feet hurt frequently?

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago

Not as much as you'd think. I do have a foot massager stick I use after long runs but my feet are pretty sturdy.

Op does this cause issues like foot pain or anything like that?

I was born clubfooted and mine are smaller than average (for 5'11").

Length-wise I'm probably technically around a 7, but I have a super high arch that prevents me from wearing shoes that size.

I end up wearing anywhere from 7.5-9 depending on the fit. The toes of my shoes almost always end up curling up over time due to the extra empty space.
