Those things about toes (1)

? There should be many friends who have heard an old saying in the countryside that "two thumbs and toes are long, and they don't adopt a mother." What does this mean? In other words, a person's second toe is longer than his thumb, which means that this person is unfilial and does not adopt a mother when he grows up. Is this person's filial piety related to this toe? Actually, it's not. Let me analyze our toes for you.

Our human toes can be roughly divided into three categories: Egyptian feet, Greek feet and Roman feet. It is the picture below.

The first type: Egyptian feet, that is, five toes are arranged from long to short. This kind of foot shape is common, and most Asian men are of this type, which is suitable for wearing oblique toe shoes.

The second type: Roman feet, that is, five toes are basically the same length. This kind of foot is rare and suitable for ballet. Round toe shoes are recommended.

The third type: Greek foot, that is, the second toe is slightly longer than other toes, also known as "beauty foot". Ancient Greek sculpture is such a foot shape. This kind of foot is generally slender, mostly beautiful. Why is this kind of foot considered as not adopting a mother?

In fact, this proverb has no scientific basis. It's just that the old saying has been handed down. The human body has skin and is influenced by parents. It's just that when humans evolved, they had all kinds of feet. It doesn't mean that two thumbs are long and you are not filial to your parents.

So don't believe that there is no scientific basis, and don't feel inferior because the second toe is long? Most beautiful women have long second toes!
