Half-Nekkid Toes

Happy Half-Nekkid Thursday!
For this special 2-for-1 edition of HNT, I give you the spectacular results of this weekend's pedicure adventure. Here is where some of you will shit yourselves. Are you ready with a pair of clean panties/boxers/butt floss/banana hammock? The feet to the left are mine. The feet to the right are Chicken's.

Are you done with the defibrillator? Those things come in handy, don't they? Chicken has loved getting a pedicure since he was a toddler. Mommy paints her toenails, Chicken wants his done, too. It's been several years since I have done his toes due to the pressures of elementary school and the way "men" are supposed to behave in our society. However, school is out for the week so Chicken was up for a toe-painting celebration. I used to have green, blue and orange polish just for him but I tossed those a while back due to age and disuse. Therefore, Chicken had to choose between pinks, reds and purple. He requested a red/purple pattern.

Here are a few more pics for your HNT viewing pleasure.

A. My toes after the "Foot Spa" and a clear coat.
B. Chicken and I. Can you believe how big his feet are?
C. Toe Wrestling!
D. Chicken enjoying the heated/massaging/bubbles of the foot spa.





















Now, before you lambast me in the comments for painting my son's toenails- please realize that I've heard it all. I've gotten the sideways looks from strangers. I've heard the "you're going to turn him gay" and the "boys don't do that". So don't waste your breathe reiterating the ignorance that abounds in this mixed-up world. It makes him happy, and that's all I care about. Oh, and Monkey- you go girl!

You don't turn someone gay. It's ridiculous. Why wouldn't he like a pedicure. It feels awesome. Your toes look cool with paint on them. He's fine!

First off, the paint doesn't surprise me so much is how BIG his feet look. Or maybe yours are small. I am used to girl feet though. I think it's cute that you two have such a cool bond.

His feet are HUGE! My god. What size does he wear??

That's an awesome way to spend time together and hang out. Who cares what people (who don't even know you) think, anyway?? Nice job on the pedi's, BTW. Come do my feet some time, ok? :-)

You will not turn him gay....he may have a foot fetish when he grows up. My mom painted my toenails - so you are warned. (smiles)

If I recall, I think I had my toenails painted once as a child. Or maybe my fingernails. I don't recall for sure. I don't think it's very fair to say that what influences us as children will directly influence what we do as adults. People change. Attitudes change. What tickels your fancy as a kid will change as an adult - most of the time.

And even if Chicken ultimately grows up to enjoy having his toes painted as an adult, who cares? That's really not a good measure of what makes a man. Real men love people for who they are, not for what they put on their bodies.

So you go, Chicken! And happy HNT to the both of you.

And happy birthday to you, Sam, and H3.2.

I am just laughing my ass off at the whole thing - it looks like fun!!! I do that with Miss B too, but she's a girl, so it's not that different. Maybe Baby D will want them....hmmmmmmm...

My boys love their toes painted as well, although it's been a while.... I found this perfect spa, dirt cheap and good, Oceanside, close to college. Every 4 weeks my feet are all soft and cute again. Do you get your big extra decorated??
I'll post a pic of mine

Okay, my tootsies are up too. It's hard to make a good looking pic of your own feet, the flash makes them too pale. Anyway, it's my first HNT posting...

Ee gads, I need to take the boy shooting, introduce him to chew and get him greasy working on cars...but alas, he resists my efforts. You know I love the boy and I know he loves a good pedi but multi colors? I think I am going to cry my gay head to sleep to night.

Chicken isn't the only guy that likes his toes done, I've been with a couple guys that will ask...can you do that to mine? when I haul out my bucket of footsie stuff.

I love the toe wrestling picture, moments like that are what he will remember when he's all grown up. Happy HNT!
