Why do girls get calluses on their feet, and guys don't?**

[Anonymous]

You know what I'm talking about. I'm looking for a serious answer, not an opinion..

**speaking, in general.

Men get them too -

This is the reason and I never realized it till I started doing MMA - when I did I started wearing sandles ALL the time - then I started getting calluses

Think about women, they're always wearing sandles, heels, all this stuff has their feet exposed, dries them out, etc.

When you're feet are in socks and trapped in a humid environment like a shoe all day, your feet don't dry out - that's why your feet smell like sh*t at the end of the day.

I'd imagine that it has something to do with their poor choice in footwear. They routinely wear shoes that hurt like hell in favor of how they look, while men seem to buy shoes that actually have a function.

Maybe, because men don't work as hard as women do..

It has NOTHING to do with the foot wear, I am an athlete and I know damn well what kind of shoes I am buying when I buy shoes. I wear tennis shoes only, no flip flops, high heels etc. so don't even put that sh*t on blast

Girls have high levels of oestrogen, and thinner/ softer skin and so are more likely to get callouses and blisters.

[mulberry]

As a continuity to that, blisters in particular are caused by the body attempting to create a cushioning layer of plasma between the abrasive object and underlying structures. Because only the skin is what separates these, a thinner skin will prompt a faster protective reaction.

Depends sometimes its because of our shoes like high heels

[drjohno]

Women sacrifice comfort/health over appearance when it comes to shoes.

[MyNameIsJonas]

Because they wear heels all the time which create calluses.

[shenholds09]

[Koldhearted]
