That is a good idea. You should narrow it down to weight equipment area. I think some gyms have shower rooms and swimming pools so flip flops would be necessary there. (Drunk!

 

He he, I said: "gyms"!

bkmulder:

Haha. Indeed, but running on flip flops on treadmills I really don't understand.

I think any Chinese woman and Sparkey should wear their high heels every where, even in bed.

It's lack of education. The village has never been visited by a medicine man that can tell that poor footwear can lead to all sorts of painful suffering later in life. Looks is more important than anything else. Not only does many wear high heels, it is also often I see women that wear poorly fitting high heels. 

I dare you to go and find a 50 year old woman in this country who doesn't have bunions. 

People don't go up mountains to go up mountains, they go up mountains because that is what everyone else does, they don't go to the fitness center for exercise they go there to show they can afford to, just like people don't go to Starbucks for coffee, they go there to show of their iThingy.

EDITJust remembered: Construction workers in flip/flops. How can people be working with jackhammers, hot tarmac, welding tools etc in flip/flops
