Cathy Classics by Cathy Guisewite for March 21, 2021
Transcript:
Saleswoman: Welcome to SPRING SHOES! A tribute to the amazing balancing act of modern women! The extreme stiletto tilts the foot forward so the entire body perches on the big toe! The rocker-soled athletic shoe tilts the foot backward so the whole body teeters on the heel! Every day the body is literally hurled back and forth between extremes, crushing then stretching every muscle in the leg... ...as women bravely try to balance HOTNESS and FITNESS! Cathy: What happened to trying to balance career and family? Saleswoman: Didn't sell any footwear.

I bought my first pair of Crocs last May and haven’t worn any other shoe since. I go for comfort instead of style.

so that’s where shoes come from.

If you can’t sell happiness, just concentrate on selling what you have.

I always liked the rocker soles. I wish they’d come back

There should be a panel of women in leg casts, shown lining up to look at the shoes and still wanting to buy them.

I don’t date women whose feet hurt. Poor footwear choice is indicative of major character deficits. A woman who moves well is graceful and attractive. A woman who limps by choice is a victim, one way or another.

Go with the “rocker-soled” athletic shoes, Cathy. They’re not all that cute but they’ll provide your feet with more support, they’ll be more comfortable to wear, and, best of all, there’s less chance that you’ll end up in the emergency room with a broken ankle should you trip and fall while wearing them ….. unlike a stiletto heel so ridiculously high that I don’t know how any woman could possibly stand up in them, let alone walk around in them! :-o

Balancing hotness and fitness? What an unnecessary struggle! Fit people are hot. Uncomfortable shoes not required.
Ah, bright sunshine, temperature above 10c, and a heavy wind cooling it down several degrees. Yup, spring is here. I hope your day is warm and sunny – without the wind chill.

AACK. For me, shoes are shoes are shoes, for the most part. Give me a pair that fits and let me go on with life. Those pink high-heeled ones in panels 2, 4, & 5 look pretty painful, too.
HI, MOM. Happy Sunday, “Cathy” Clan.

Amazing how many workplaces I’ve been in conflict with as they tried to force me to wear “girl shoes” and no athletic shoes allowed. I even had to get a doctor’s order to wear athletic shoes as my feet deteriorated (and I was working as a social worker going into homes with all kinds of hazards—from icy/broken steps to dog poop).
