Due to a pituitary issue when I was younger I have maybe a bizarre world record of the smallest feet and hands on a fully grown man. My feet and hands are normal looking but very small. They were tiny as a baby and just never grew that big. Thought you all would find it interesting - I know it makes for good chat at parties!

    Well…you know what they say about tall guys with tiny feet, right?

    …that they’re sick of the penis size jokes.

      Haha why is this so true? Luckily whatever made my hands and feet lilliputian didn’t affect any other part of my body.

        Ypu’re lucky! I once hook up with a huge guy, handsome, big in every way… but the penis. He had a micro penis that looked like a kids penis. I felt so bad for him. Just hook up anyway because he was good with his hands.

            I’m sorry but if you have any problems they are not mine. In no place did I pity him. We actually went out other times and he was super smart. I feel bad because I know people that would be mean to him but Pity is very different. I’m not a prostitute that would have sex with someone for pity

              That read as pity to me, but good, I’m glad it isn’t. I don’t even have a penis, so no problems here, lol.

    For international readers, that’s a size 2 in UK/Australia, and approximately a size 33.5 - 34 European.

    Apparently it’s also roughly a 210 - 215 mondopoint length.

    One of the few times I’ve seen someone with a smaller shoe size than myself, having a woman’s 5.5 or there abouts. But it’s fine for the rest of me. Good luck! I hope they continue to uh. Be feet? Yep!

      Not as much as you’d think. I do have a foot massager stick I use after long runs but my feet are pretty sturdy.

      Yes sometimes random strangers will comment on it which is awkward. It’s quite noticeable. In high school I used to try to wear much bigger shoes like size 7 (the biggest I could wear without them falling off me) to make it less noticeable but it hurt like hell lugging those around all day so I stopped. It’s annoying but I’m used to it I guess.

      My calf muscles and foot muscles have grown larger I think to compensate and keep me relatively balanced, but I’m still a klutz and trip all the time. Can easily lose my footing if I’m shoved in a crowd for example. But yeah for the most part can walk and run fine.

      Sometimes. I can walk and run fine because my calves and foot muscles I think have grown bigger to compensate. But still trip all the time. Windy days are not my friend.

    Does having such small feet for an adult cause issues with foot pain? Since you need to buy children’s shoes, do they properly support your feet and your adult weight? Are there any unexpected advantages to having such compact feet? (I occasionally have to traverse stairs sideways because of my feet.)

      My feet can ache a bit after a long day or a run but I don’t think significantly worse than normal footed people. I do have orthotics that I use for extra support. I guess one advantage is that I really do not stub my toes ever…and shoes are much cheaper for me in kid’s sizes. And I can wear light up shoes. Plus I can run pretty fast - I guess my feet are much lighter than most.

        And I can wear light up shoes.

        I was hoping to find this here somewhere lol

        I’ve always had long feet so I never even got long to wear kids shoes (and light up shoes weren’t even around yet during the short time I did lol) and was so jealous of a friend of mine who had tiny feet and could wear all the cute and sparkly and light up shoes she wanted long in to adulthood.

        If it was me, I’d absolutely be buying all the fun shoes I could afford. 😂

          I wasn’t going to ask for shoeless foot pics because that feels weird, but thanks for doing so. Curiosity sated.

          My brain keeps telling me it’s some kind of forced perspective, seeing how your foot looks normal and the shoe abnormally big.

            That’s definitely how the world seems to me…everyone is Bigfoot! I do have more photos of size differences of course but I don’t want to subject you all to more photos of my deformed feet.

              The pics with the shoes on, they really don’t look noticeable. But yeah that one you could definitely tell. Also, your hands don’t look small at all. Compared to your body they really look proportional. And this is very interesting, not mildly! I wouldn’t mind seeing more pictures, and I’m sure people wouldn’t as well, as long as you’re ok sharing.

                Thanks! This is a shot just on a ferry - this guy was shorter than me I think maybe size 11 feet?

                And my feet from the side in size 9 shoes

                Compared to a random print in the snow…

                And my foot measured…
