I don't get this either
I mean if they're on a night out and are wearing stupid heels - fair enough. But wearing general day to day shoes - do they have no balance of their own? Do they have to cling to me and drag me down with them? Pah!

LOL! Very succinct! Women's shoes are generally not known to have much by way of deep tread as a rule!
Tho to be fair neither can anyone round my way today, snow on ice topped with more ice, deep, crunchy AND slippy, what a combo to delight the shopping-bag laden pensioner!

nowt to do with shoes
missus had on hiking boots and still slithered, shuffled and slipped to the shops. It's either a complete lack of faith in physics that cause it or the unbalancing nature of boobs. A difficult one to test in controlled scientific conditions.

Women's shoe heels
generally are not big enough to accomodate a working magnetic compass.

I think this means they are unable to locate North, and are then taken by suprise with the slippy white stuff (fnarrrrr!)

Disproved :P
Evidence? I've just got back in from the Co-op, and there's an inch of snow on the ground here. :P

That’s very true
Me and Mrs RoF went sledging recently, both in our matching walking boots (Howard and Hilda). I was walking up the slope in the usual upright one foot in-front of the other manner, she’s bent over sliding on her feet and hands like an ungainly new born calf.

Do the ladies have a different coefficient of friction to men?

Dunno
But I can think of several experiments to find out :D

Not snow
But ice. Ice is the problem. I love snow! It's only when it freezes over that I start having problems...
