/sci/, you guys are resourceful. Why is it that women love shoes so much? Are there any scientific studies on this phenomenon?

for some reason some women check out each other's shoes and the shoes of males.

I like shoes because they make me feel pretty and one pair of shoes does not go with every outfit.

I would assume that would apply to the rest of the female population.

True, I'm just really serious today because I have a lot of work to get done that I'd really like to be able to put off lol. I have pretty solid reasons nonetheless that she isn't cheating. The easiest to explain here is that she's kind of crazy about monogamy, she has this whole deal about it that come to think of it isn't that easy to explain in a short post.

And to the people above, yeah I was talking about the girlfriends I've had over different time periods, not concurrently. That would be pretty interesting though but I'm not attractive enough to pull that off.

EK's "liberated sex life" consists of claiming she'd be down to do all these things she thinks a cool nerdy girl would do for desperate internet nerds to jizz over, then being routinely surprised by the simplest descriptions of non-vanilla sex. She's probably either a virgin or at the very least a terrible lay who's never been with a talented lover.

She's long since been outed, confirmed, and repeatedly re-confirmed for boring.

My girlfriend of nearly 4 years loves shoes. I like that she likes shoes- if having and wearing a variety of shoes not only entertains her, but lets her feel more confident, I of course support this behaviour. Plus she has a few pairs of heels that make her look super hot.

>> No.4007371

Not all women love shoes. Those who do likely love them for different reasons.
I don't know if it is a symptom of spending so much time on this board, or if all men or even all humans are prone to such generalizations, but you should really take into consideration the fact that women are not a homogeneous group.

Based on anecdotal evidence, however, I can say that most women do like shoes. There are several possible reasons for this:

1. Improving beauty. Whether for self confidence or attracting other humans, dressing yourself up will improve how you look. Shoes are a part of this.

2. Shoes as a status symbol. In wealthier circles, certain designers are easily recognized. The shoes are then bragged about, you become somehow more valuable, ????, profit.

3. pressure from peers/society, wanting to fit in. Explanation not required.

4. admired as pieces of wearable art.

5. Humans like collecting things. Some people like rocks, others stamps, many women like to collect shoes.
