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 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

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:

Well look at all of the Egos around here then. :biggrin:

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 !

Gokul is a geek too :smile:
That's great :wink:
 
  • #52
A Dirac Delta distribution isn't anyone's wet dream... it just means you need to go back and take more data.
 
  • #53
Yes, the statistic is poor here :frown:
 
  • #54
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 :smile: (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.)

Via PM, I have Tsunami weighing in at a delicate size 7.
Nereid, care to share?
Kat? Mooberry Mars? Adrenaline?

Holy crud! How tall are you??
 
  • #59
6'2"

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.

Oh :frown: I was hoping you would be taller with that size feet. There has to be someone taller than me in PF. :smile:
