One for the Girls ..

Ten Reasons why Shoes are Better than Men!

1 – You can never have too many shoes

Some people would say that you can never have too many men, either – but clearly they’d be wrong, or Paris Hilton.

2 – New shoes can be returned within 28 days, no questions asked

If you wish to return men to their manufacturers, it’s normally about 30 years past that date.

3 – You can give your old shoes away to charity.

Donating a former boyfriend to a single girlfriend might be deemed as charity, but don’t ever tell your single girlfriend that.

4 – Relationships with shoes last longer

You may still fondly remember the red kitten heels you wore when you were 16, but we doubt you can remember the name of the boy you snogged while you were wearing them.

5 – When shopping online, you know that the pictures of shoes will be an accurate representation

When was the last time you bought a pair of shoes online, only for them to turn up and elicit the response: ‘My god, that picture of them was taken about 10 years ago!’?

6 – Shoes require little, or no, attention

You can put them away in your wardrobe and they do perfectly well without light/food/toe rubs and everything!

7 – Shoes will never leave you for another woman

If they ever do, it’s because you’ve actually given them away to that other woman. Which is completely different.

8 – You can borrow your girlfriends’ shoes for the night

You may try to borrow your girlfriends’ men for the night, but it probably won’t go down too well. Especially if they’re all on the same night.

9 – You can hang on to old shoes in case you decide you like them again

Sadly, getting rid of a man from your life is the emotional equivalent of dropping off your shoes at the shoe bank in the supermarket car park. You may want them back – but they’re someone else’s now.

10 – Love at first sight has more chance of lasting with shoes

Your love for those shoes will never waver (unless you’re 13). And when you wake up in the morning, you’ll never turn and look at your shoes from the night before and think: ‘I wore those? What was I thinking?!’
