SILENCE PLEASE, DO NOT WALK!

It's like I couldn't be irritated enough by the now usual blaring sounds of funny ring tones in the library [don't even get me started, that's a story for another day] All women decided to come to the library wearing stilettos!You know the sound when they're moving around, swinging there hips, careful not to sink in the ground? Tik, tok, tik... like a clock on a wall.

Please fly by, don't walk, some other people's attention spans equal that of a 2year old. Stiletto-wearing in the library just made it to my list of heinous women behavior. And no, men don't behave badly, women do.

Now, before I get carried away and turn this into a women thing, and before they label me sexist or anything -ist, I just want to elucidate one thing here. I really do like it when they wear those high heeled shoes. They really do look nice in them too, [have you noticed I'm rhyming? Anyway.] but they don't have to make me look bad when I'm trying to peruse my books!

Why do women have issues when it comes to picking the right attire for the occasion or even the weather? Jeez, it's a clASS not a clUB, why do you arrive here naked? [Perhaps I should go slow on his one cuz my wish may just be granted.]

To some extent I don't make this observation filled with disgust but I rather see it as a wrong mode of conduct. It's like Tv, you don't need it when you want to engage in deep conversation with someone. You'd like both, but each at it's own time. So will someone please tell the honies to leave the shoes in their rightful places when they come to the library? Then we will catch up with them outside.

Ah, college life!

"...swinging there hips, careful not to sink in the ground?" Haha!! I feel you, though Id give a limb to be able to walk in them. Feels like I have two left feet...

Screamer, I feel you there. I dislike those stilleto wearing women who go about making noise forpeople especially in places of worship, especially when they come late!

The shoe in the picture looks really nice, unfortunately for me, I don't wear high shoes [cant walk in them :-( ].

Cool shoe!!!!!!!!!!

Don't sweat it. The shoe I wear will take me through the day (you try running home to change shoes). If I'm in stilletos and my day takes me to a lib, I'll try to be silent ... It's all this super woman thing that takes us a million places in a day ...

Why dont they just remove their stilletos and walk in barefoot? Anyway, I understand you, I hate that sound when trying to concentrate

Wyndago said...

Cool shoe, I know. Shiko talk to me good and i might grant you your wish.

Mama you can't walk on high heels? Learn!

Lumi you just gave me an idea, I'm an engineer student. I'm goin to design a soundless shoe... or will i spoil the whole idea of high heel shoes? Or a shoe that can be turned to vibration mode whenever desired, like in the library, ha!

Mama said...

Why bother Screamer?

Personally, I can't dare do anything I am not comfortable with and high shoes I don't even look at twice. Especially the pointed heel type. High and flat, I may consider but that one in the picture is a no-no!
