Dear God.
Why do I insist on torturing myself by reading about what kind of feet you people have?!?
I hate feet. Or…do I??? Maybe I subconsciously… :eek:
I, too, share in your monkeyfootedness (should that have a hyphen?). I pinched my gf with them once, just to see if I could do it. She got really mad. Apparently, it hurts a lot more than a normal pinch.
Here’s another thing to freak you out. Because your second toe is longer than your first, not only are you monkeyfooted, you are also pigeon-toed.
I have a toe-tallented sister. Can confirm. The toe-pinching-the-calf-thing hurts more than a normal pinch. Another tender spot is the back of the upper arms. It is what convinced me that my otherwise sweeter-than-life older sister is a closet sadist.
The only thing that stopped it as kids was when I started showing our Mom the 4 inch diameter bruises… and when I learned to punch with some velocity. It’s 20 years later and I still don’t let her get behind me with bare feet
My toes aren’t long (in fact, all my toes other than the big toes are very, very curled) but I can pick up stuff with them, turn knobs, and pinch people. Though I never tried to pinch them hard enough to bruise… hmmm, where’s the hubby when you need him?
Well, to me “monkey feet” means something entirely different. It’s what results if you wear shorts all summer with shoes+socks. You have tan legs and pale ankles and feet.
I wear Teva’s most of the summer, so I have “zebra feet”.

Monkey feet, do your thing!

I don’t like you 
Maybe we should start a thread where everyone posts a pic of their feet, and everyone else critiques their feet?
I thought it was this. oh well…
I too have can grip things with my feet, and have my second toe larger than the big toe.
However, my toes are pretty much normal looking other than that.
And my wife doesn’t seem to mind my hairy feet, other than she says my feet are disgusting in general.
I think deep down inside she wants me to get a pedicure.
Quick question to all you toe pinchers, what technique do you use? I was only acquainted with the normal big-toe-over method, but my wife, whose toe arrangement is freakishly similar to ForumBot 's taught me the big-toe-under method, and I must say it is much more effective.
Just so you remember that at most high schools, they frown on brachiating in the locker room.
Awww, ForumBot honey, I meant no offense! Maybe you thought I was being sarcastic. I honestly think it’s funny, humorous, as in make me smile and laugh! And yes it would be very cool 
to show that photo to people, because it’s so original. (I wouldn’t recommend whipping it out at job interviews, but in an informal setting: a party, picnic, game, that sort of thing.)
WOW! How many people? How many toes do you have? Do your feet look like this or something?
You have monkey feet.
Trust me, I know, having them myself. Am trying to learn to write with mine, it’s slow going, but my hadwriting sucks so bad I almost can’t tell a difference.
I should certainly hope so…
Funny. If I met someone with particularly hairy feet the first term that would come to my mind would be “hobbit feet” …
ding! ding! ding!
Hubby has hobbit feet. Oh yes. Bilbo Baggins, no doubt.
And yes, you do appear to have monkey feet. However they don’t appear to reek of monkey house, so why not enjoy them. In fact, there’s a rather erotic scene in Larry McMurtry’s Texasville involving a big toe.
The second toe on the left foot appears to have no joints.
I’m laughing incredibly loudly right now
So much so that I can’t constuct a proper sentence.
