heelma Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 I guess some know this one already, as it's quite old already, but it's really funny: Why do so many japanese girls look funny even if they just walk in high heels?
Marcus Posted July 25, 2008 Posted July 25, 2008 Because of a lack of calcium in their bone structure due to the fish they eat. Bones and articulations grow not strong and walking they get deformed. Can you see the real me, preacher? Can you see the real me, doctor? Can you see the real me, mother? Can you see the real me?
Stilettoscot Posted July 27, 2008 Posted July 27, 2008 Huh?? Walking in ultra-highs because it's exciting...and it is!!
Bubba136 Posted July 28, 2008 Posted July 28, 2008 Having lived in Japan for over a year, at one point, I learned that a lot of the people, especially the ones over 60, have "bowed" legs due to a culture habit practiced in the earlier part of the 20th century. That is, that parents used to strap their babies onto their backs and carry them in that manner for hours on end. Especially farmers and their wives while working in the fields and rice paddies. while the baby's torso was strapped flat against the parents back, the baby's legs encircled the parents waste and eventually became formed to the shape of the parent's waste. Thus, bowing their legs....sometimes slightly and other times quite noticeably. This isn't to say that that nutrition deficiencies aren't also the cause. Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.
crotchboots-m Posted July 31, 2008 Posted July 31, 2008 the japanese culture is bit strange to us outsiders. have ever watched their commercials? totally bizzare...its like they trying to be like us and something gets lost/added in the translation.
