Ok, so you know the toe. The one right next to the big toe. Its an anomaly! Some are longer than others, some are the same size and finally, as it should be (as some would argue, not all) some are smaller. What about yours, is yours longer than the Big toe?
No real bias intended but mine is smaller, just the way I like it! But not to worry, for all you out there with the strang feet my fiance's is bigger and hey I'm still marrying him.

My second toe on both feet are definitely longer than my big toe. To make it worse, my last 3 toes are really small...So depending on how you look at my feet, it either looks like I'm giving you the "peace" sign or that I'm flipping someone off.
It's hilarious, as a lot of people (including myself) like to joke about how odd it looks.

My second toe is smaller than my big toe. I think this is what most of us have. But when I see it carefully, I tried to compare its length with my big toe, and what do you think I saw? My second toe is actually a little bit longer than my big toe! It is a new discovery for me because before this I have never thought about looking at my toes, not to mention analyzing them. So I guess I have to thank you because you started this discussion and now I know my second toe is longer than my big toe.

My second toe is the same size as my big toe, though I have seen people with all sorts of toe lengths. That is actually not what is interesting about my feet. Instead, my little toe is very tiny with almost no nail. I have to keep the nail trimmed short because it grows upwards and the bend of my little toes makes it so that the nail will stab its neighboring toe. So, I think I have weird feet. My husband tells me they are beautiful and cute. Guess it is all in the eye of the beholder.

With that said I feel obligated to mention my left BigToe nail has such a significant upward arch in the middle that if I let it get grow even a little it's hard for me to wear cute flats. YOu can even see it stick out the shoe is soft.
Plus I think a lot of women have that problem of nails cutting into our toes if we let them get outta hand especially because of our shoe choices. I don't know about you but I would definitely ponder a night of pain for some sexy pointed leather boots...ok ok maybe not ponder I'd deal with it! haha I'd wear them no matter how resticting they were as long as I looked real good in them.
Oh the woes of toes!

My second toe is actually almost the same exact length as my big one. But it would be weird if it were smaller because I have long skinny toes (and fingers) and if it were smaller it just wouldn't fit. I would have really funny looking feet!

I have long skinny toers too! But because my fit are a bit on the larger side, 9 1/2 I think they actually look porportionate...others like would disagree. Believe it or not I had a debate about toes and feet in our leadership class in high school. This was the class that all the student body officials had to discuss class and school agenda. Yes, I know thrilling debate...but I feel we should love our body, toes included! and I'm glad you do too.

I actually have no idea but you got me curious. Not curious enough to strip off my boots and socks to check this out for you though. I'll try to remember to take note of it next time and let you know. I think my big toe is the longest and that they graduate down...not sure.
