So, my dad has the biggest problem with thongs (flip flops/havianas/whatever) and preaches to me the dangers of wearing them and how I might step on something, how they make me look like a derro yadda yadda.
I wear them pretty much all the time and am really tired of hearing about how daggy I look because I'm wearing brown/black/pink/white thongs.

Does anyone else have this problem?

our house is carpetted so we walk bare foot at home and we need thongs to go out in the yard and stuff so they're cool with thongs.

I wear them with socks just to walk down the street. My toes would freeze otherwise.

Thongs rock. I don't think a uni student could live without several pairs.

I can't wear them all the time cause I'm not used to them and some classes require closed in shoes. Plus I'm active so if I run around with thongs I'm going to break them.

I don't know, I think its better for me to not keep count!
I've got a couple of pairs of "jesus thongs" (you know the type that have the corky sole, and the bit that comes up through your toes goes through the top bit and buttons/knots), a couple of pairs of going out type thongs (like, suedey material, with big sliver loops at the top of the bit between your toes) and waaaaaaaaay too many pairs of hav's.

Yeah I wear thongs on the days I don't have labs, providing it's hot. I still don't quite get the jeans + thongs combination, but I certainly don't have any problems with thongs in general.

yeh i have like 4 pairs of thongs.. ahh i love uni being able to wear them (compared to going to school with shoes and socks)
driving in thongs can be dangerous.. i never really understood it until one day i was leaving a petrol station (soha was in the car with me) and like the thong on my right foot was kind of caught and i couldnt accelerate.. with a car going straight for me im like arghh crap but yeh i finally got it and sped out.. but it was really close! so yeh drive barefoot rather than with thongs.. dont learn the hard way like me :S

My dad is a lunatic in many ways but hes never had a problem with the fact I dont wear shoes unless I absolutely have to.

I love my thongs, but I tend to lose them on big nights. Ive got one red one and one brown one aswell as my other pairs because I lost their partners :(

thongs are awesome, i'd die without them. although for some reason rubber ones don't make my feet hurt (like havaianas), but shitty foam ones like the ones roxy has make them hurt so bad.

last time i went away, my bag was pretty full by the time i put all my clothes in so i just packed thongs, and then we got to nevada or wherever and it was snowing. my dad gave me and my best friend this huge lecture about inappropriate footwear.

girls can get away with thongs more often that boys can

particulary because they generally dont have hairy hobbit feet!
