Default Flip flops are unmanly? Huh?

I don't think I attacked FOX, John. But then again, "I comment, you
decide." :-)

Check out the footware next time you're down on the dock. You'll see
boaters running around in everything from bare feet to shoes that are
entirely inappropriate, IMO, for a boat.
If you asked me to describe the sexuality of the folks wearing the
various shoes, I wouldn't have a clue in most cases. OK, I guess the
pot bellied bald guy wearing the two-inch pumps and mascara may be
slightly obvious; but flip flops? No way. They are legitimate footware
on a boat, for either sex.

There are forces that want to chip, chip, chip away until we are a
society of single mided conformists. How can "flip flops are for
metrosexuals, not for real men" be considered news, anyway?
