Walk Tall Men.......Walk Tall.........

I was purusing Evilbay this evening and ran accross something that struck me as funny. Before I show it to you, I want to know something from you guys.

WHY OH WHY does everything have to revolve around SIZE?!?!?

The size of your hands - Wow...it sure is impressive how you can palm that bowling ball.
The size of your feet - Dude, that size 15 does not necessarily correlate to whats hiding in the pants.
The size of you weenus - Do I EVEN have to go there? Do I?!?!
And your heights - I love how guys always round up an inch.......ahem or even two when they state how tall they are.

Whyis it?!?!? Why do you feel like its a constant competition to be that 1" bigger in all the above categories?!?!?! WHO CARES. I just don't get it. SOMEONE PLEASE explain it to me. And I don't want to hear this alpha male bigger, better, gets the women. There should have been SOME kind of evolution in the last hundred years or so. PUHLESE

OK....back to what I saw.....here is the listing: TALLSHOES

Did you see it......are men actually BUYING these?!?! I about bust a gut when I saw them.
Now I realize some of you may think these ROCK. But let me try to explain why these are so funny to me. I am a tall woman. No, I am not 5'11" tall......I am like 6'4" tall. And I can't TELL you how many times I have walked into a room and immediately see all the men inside stare and straighten themselves up. Its like an automatic string being pulled on their spine. No, its like boot camp and all the enlisteds standing at attention when the Commanding officer walks by. Its quite the amazing spectacle. Truly it is. No more slouched shoulders, no more casual standing....its the let me stand at full height and even up on my toes just a tad. WHY....WHY!?!?
I realize I will never know why (although I think I do) but stop. Don't do that....and don't try to walk slowly by trying to see who is the taller of the two. DON'T!!!

Back to the shoes....did you see the logo that also went with them?!?! Now you can be Taller than her! That is what struck me as the funny part. Taller than her. Now I know several tall women....and a couple do date guys who are shorter etc. But they don't care. And I think most women DON'T CARE. What happens when you get home with that taller girl and you take off the shoes?!?! ROFL...that reminds me of that Seinfeld episode where George wore those timberlines. bwhahahaha....good episode - but I digress. ahem. Its FALSE ADVERTISING!!!! False advertising I say!!! Let me put this in terms that you may understand. Its like an ultra padded bra or falsies. No matter how much you like the person...its a tad disappointing when you see the true goods. Yeah, the boobies are there....but how fun are they really when you were expecting a full C and end up with a full A. Think about it.

MENS Shoes that are actually purposefully advertised for their lift. Bad Idea.....BAD idea. I don't care how short you are. Just don't do it!!!

**oh and I apologize to all of those vertically challenged men who may be reading this. I hope that you benefit from it and that you enjoy your new 2.75". Rock on and snag you a tall woman!
