I'm male and my shoe size is 13 c.
Male 10.5
Do you need ages also? Seems like the age spread will make a difference in your statistics...

Unable to determine (smell overwhelming).
female 8 US (my mother always said "if you run around barefoot, you'll get big feet), she was right, she wears a size 6. :frown:
Whew, Boulderhead, I can smell your feet over here, put those shoes back on!

Cool, Evo! We can trade! :cool: :biggrin:
I have a date Saturday and I need some strappy black sling-backs. Got anything like that?

You know, I really don't know my shoe size. I went with one pair of boots for about ten years, and since then I've been given a new pair, and the shoe shop person fitted me for some nice leather shoes. Oh, and I have thongs, what you might call flip-flops in the USA. I haven't had to check sizes and such since about 1992. I could go and look at the size on the bottom of my shoes, but that would be too much effort.

ok, write down 8 :wink: I remember I was in the US and went bowling with collegues and didn't have a clue what my size was, so I just picked the same size as the girl next to me.. she was a size 5! :uhh: :rofl: had to go back and get a somewhat bigger shoe :tongue2:
Thongs being a slab of rubber under the foot, held in place by a Y-shaped rubber strap across the front of the foot and between the first and second toes.
Oh, and I have thongs, what you might call flip-flops in the USA.
I like to call them slippers.

Male, size 11.
While we're on the topic of smelly feet lyrics, how bout some Lou Reed:
Yesterday Daisy May and Biff
Were groovin' on the street
And just like in a movie,
Her hands became her feet
Her belly button was her mouth
Which meant she tasted what she'd speak, woooh!
But the funny thing is what happened to her nose, oooh
It grew until it reached all of her toes, oooh
Now when people say her feet smell, they mean her nose
I still remember that Paul McCartney song from the early 1970s, where he sang "I can smell your feet a mile away..."
Was that a follow up to:
There will be an odor, let it be!
male, size 12 (US).
And for the record: big feet = big....nevermind :blushing: .

On the internet, the told me I am 6.23 feet, and yes, I'm glad about large feet too in order not to fall. The essential is to be well proportionned.
About Gza's theory : i agree :wink: and I think another guy in the biology forum would gain much popularity if he tried to test those correlations :tongue2:

Just spotted Monique's post that she's a size 8 also! Something tells me your graph for female shoe sizes is going to be a bit boring. A correlation between women's shoe size and liking physics seems to be emerging :tongue:

A Dirac Delta distribution isn't anyone's wet dream... it just means you need to go back and take more data.

We still don't have data for Tsunami. And what about Nereid? We have a pretty small sample set of women around here at PF, so every answer counts!

LOL! If the data support your hypothesis, never attempt to replicate the experiment :rofl: (In case the smiley doesn't make the point, I'm not serious about that statement, it's just a joke going around our lab right now because the lab next to ours is trying to replicate an experiment and some really wacky things have gone wrong on each attempt.)

It really depends on the shoe. I can wear a 14 or 15 dress shoe, 16 for tennis shoes and boots, and 17 or 18 for roller skates.

Some people are very unfortunate : they grow and grow forever, and it won't stop. Usually, when they reach 8'5", they prefer to go hiding in the forest, because of all the inconvenience you know, scaring kids, being called freak, having to sew your own clothes... Don't worry TheBob & Miles ! They have a fine place with the internet, deep in Amazonia, so the essential is safe : you can keep hanging around with us in PF :tongue2:
