JeffB Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 Found this pic on a website called People Of Wal-Mart: Here's the page with resulting comments. Surprisingly, most of them were positive. http://www.peopleofwalmart.com/?p=16568#comments Looks like the posters had a lot of fun with that pic! Anyhoo, much as I enjoy wearing skirts and heels, not even I would wear something THAT wild! I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman!

Bubba136 Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 everything matches....top, skirt and shoes. I actually believe he's kinda "overdressed" for Wal-Mart (the things on his legs are a bit overpowering). If I had seen him in my local Wal-Mar, I would have definitely stopped and talked to him. I would bet that he does have a very interesting story. And, I'd tell him about hhplace....so he could tell it to everyone here. but. when you think about it, he's not dressed anymore conspicuously than Thighbootguy is.....just a bit more flamboyantly is all.

Guest Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 WOW that's ??????????????????????????????? and running though the pictures (1st 100) if that is a snapshot of American shopping style (and obesity) then many of the UK based supermarket dress codes are piffle. I thought many was downright obscene! but having said that and I know there are a few cosplayers on the forum our youngest daughter with friends have played hide and seek in the Southampton Ikea for more than two hours as Naratu caricatures until the staff joined in and ousted them and then at the opposite, they have gone to McDonald's and then to ASDA (uk walmart) in prom dresses for something to do? (sorry not the boys) I have to laugh and I like it, I shall pass that link on. Thanks Jeff Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnieheel Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 For the most part I think most of the comments were very positive. Tells me that society is being more tolerant these days to men wearing whatever they want. real men wear heels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffB Posted September 19, 2010 Author Share Posted September 19, 2010 Heh! That pic was a hoot! I must say I was certainly impressed! I need to visit Wal-Mart more! I don't want to LOOK like a woman, I just want to DRESS like a woman! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Shoe Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 I must admit I was pleasantly surprised at the number of positive comments. I think there is a real seed change and that society is becoming more tolerant. Graduate footwear designer able to advise and assist on modification and shoe making projects.

hhboots Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 That guy does have very nice legs, if he brought down his "bling" factor a few notches or so, he actually would not look bad at all. ... running though the pictures (1st 100) if that is a snapshot of American shopping style (and obesity) then many of the UK based supermarket dress codes are piffle. That particular website was created primarily to poke fun of some people that shop at Walmart. There has been a long standing reputation for Walmart as having the most interesting shoppers that often include rednecks, very unstylish and slovenly dressed people, lower income people, and odd creatures of all sorts. On occasion I've gone to Walmart and perhaps its a regional thing, but where I am, the people that shop there seem just like anyone else (nothing entertaining enough to be posted to that website). So no, your comment on that site being a real snapshort of American shopping style and obesity is really not the case. But I won't deny, there sure are a ton of unique creatures that continue to keep that website going very strong indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smilin_guy Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 It looks like the shot was taken in Virginia, I wonder if that was near Washington DC or more toward the rural areas of western VA. In any case, I have never seen anything that bold while shopping anywhere, much less Walmart. I don't get the leg jewelry at all, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless there is a sign posted somewhere that I've not noticed, I'd really like to know how you can pinpoint it so exactly?

Also, he is also featured in a Virginia link from that same page where there are more pictures of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cinnamon Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 Well he's certainly got better legs than a lot of women. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tightsnheels Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Maybe a bit much bling but who are we to criticize? For myself I think the outfit is very nicely done and far exceeds what I have seen on most genetic females at Wal-Mart over the years, and when Wal-Mart is really the only place to shop you spend a lot of time there. I only wish more of us would be as brave as this guy and go shopping instead of hiding in the closet all the time. Just my two cents and opinion.

spikesmike Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 I don't shop at wal-mart, so I don't get to see good stuff like this. I shop at Meijer stores. They don't take pictures of customers there. I wear 5 3/4 " high heels there when ever I shop. What ever happened to the compatition market? I have nice legs too.

Mike Anyone with a cell phone is a potential poster of your picture from a Walmart, or any other shopping location. All I ever see at Walmart is the really ugly people who would benefit from wearing something that actually fit, and didn't look like they lived in it for 6 weeks. Most of these contestants wouldn't look so bad if they actually hid their but crack, and bouncing blubber bulges. All the Walmarts near me don't carry anything this dude is wearing. In my case, the bling is a bit heavy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spikesmike Posted September 23, 2010 Share Posted September 23, 2010 To Heelster. Please excuse my ignorance. What is ment by the quote " the bling is a bit heavy ? Wear more/much heigher heels is my quote. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my case, the bling is a bit heavy. Again it goes with the territory. If you go out heeling in public, you have to deal with the public. Note to self, unless you want your picture taken and posted on People of Walmart, I would not go heeling there. But that's just me of course. Enjoy your heels.

UpBy5 Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 At 71, I'm glad to run across you. If you regularly go out and shop in 5 3/4" HH, you must not live in Virginia! I'm very new, have been unable to post an intro, probably due to my lack of understanding of forum/blogging protocols and lingo. Hope to trade info with you soon.
