Do you need ages also? Seems like the age spread will make a difference in your statistics...

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!

Male, 9 US. I propose we herewith refer to humanino as "Bigfoot".

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.

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.

Male, 10 US.

I still remember that Paul McCartney song from the early 1970s, where he sang "I can smell your feet a mile away..."

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

Was that a follow up to:
There will be an odor, let it be!

Male size 13/14 US (I am 6'3" tall so I'm sure if I didn't have big feet I'd fall over).

The Bob you are 16 ! Wow you will get huge man !
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 :-p

Shoe Size: 10.5 US

Is there a correlation between feet size and ... size?
Nah, My feet would be huge. :biggrin:
 
  • #42
What correlations ?
If this is genital, I would have a huge left foot, and a tiny right one :smile:

male 12

I thought 12 was average for males? Maybe we just have big feet here in the midwest.

Evo and Math Is Hard, this is just too funny! I'm a size 8 also! (I'm female too in case anyone has missed my comments on this in previous threads). I did a lot of running around barefoot to those same warnings :smile:

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 :-p

It also helps if your legs are long enough to reach the ground...

Boring ?? :eek: A low Gaussian is boring ! A Dirac-delta distribution :...that's an analyst's wet dream !
