FLIP FLOPS BAD FOR OUR FEET NOW? ABC "News" Story?

Question

So, it seems the Main Stream Media is now trying to imply that thongs, flip flops, and other such footwear "may be" bad for our poor little feets!

Who else is sick of the MSM coming up with stories that "could" or "may" or "suggests" that something people have been doing for who knows how long "might" be bad for us, yet we go on with no ill effects?

I think it's getting old. Your opinions, please.

Answer 1

Like theres not enough real c**p going on in the world the MSM makes stupid stories up!! Really Katie Curic you could find any REAL news?

Its a mystery to me, dude why this stupidity goes on! Whats more shocking is the people who pay attention and  care about it!!

And by the way shoes are against my religion!!!!lol I own about 30 pairs of flip flops... I have my dress ones down to my uggs house shoe flip flops!!!!

Answer 2

From personal experience, I know that flip flops do not do my feet any good.  Unless they have really goo arch support.  I have problem feet and certain shoes that have no arch or heel support give me a lot of problems.  Personally, I would go barefoot all the time if my feet didn't hurt so much.

Answer 3

I agree, I wear flip flops ALL the time and I have for about 5+years...anyway, my feet are just fine. Its the same as listening to loud music may be bad for your hearing, etc. In the future, I suppose that there may be some sort of long term 'damage', but who knows. maybe they tested chinese flip flops :p  shame on me, I know :)
