I was recently looking at some of the vibram footwear on the internet, and I was wondering if it would fit me because I have the Morton's Toe condition (see article en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morton's_toe) where my 2nd toe is longer than my big toe. Actually mine is the extreme example such as shown below (not my foot, it is from Wiki article). The article goes on to say that this condition was used as an idealized form of the foot for greek and roman statuary, including the Statue of Liberty (see below). If anyone is interested please vote in the poll above; it would be interesting to see the prevalence of this condition among the user community.

Mine are the same length! What's that, Cucamonga foot? You've got CroMagnon foot. No I'm joking; apparently you're normal. |

I have two Egyptian feet. And I didn't realize anyone had 2nd toes longer than their big toes.

I never really noticed before, but my second toes are slightly longer than my big toes.

My second toes are longer than my big toes.
But this isn't really something you can show off.

This is the easiest way to identify aliens posing as humans. If you see one of these beings in public, just smash their toes with the heel of your boots. Their alien face will protrude through their human faux-face for just a second or two after you stomp them...watch for it!

2nd toes have been longer all my life...still waiting for orders from our Most Supreme High Commander on taking over the planet.

oh dear, one of each. I never noticed that in ALL these years of life--thanks so much for giving me a five-minute case of body dysmorphia. Okay, over it how. And it's barely, in each case.
So somewhere out there, there is one Greek and one Egyptian missing a foot? I have theirs? Should I mail them back once I'm done with them?

Damn, I have that too! Spackle, let's keep this between us. Another mutation! Makes me want to go watch Terror from the Year 5000. Not that I need an excuse. The mutant lady in the nurses uniform was freakin hot in a B&W 60s kinda way. |

The thumb on my right lower hand is longer than my lower ring finger. Is that normal?
