    Its ok for a woman to grow her fingernails long. What about toe nails? Is there a certain length that is correct? When does it cross that line?

    And when men grow their nails out, is their a certain length that is just...eeeew.

    And how long down the evolutionary chain til we lose our toenails? What do we need them for?

    You are amazing really, this is the best thread I've seen all year.

    Women can grow their nails however long they desire, it's men that should not exceed a certain length because they do all the manly work and it would cause problems. If the female chooses to do manly work she too will have difficulties so it's better left up for the man.

    Toe nails should not exceed a certain length so you can walk and put on shoes easily. We have not lost our toe nails though they are simply cut by artificial means now. I was thinking about this too recently, exactly how did we groom ourselves before abilities to cut them existed?

    This is a question which requires an opinionated answer, so here's mine: long toe nails (as in anything visibly protruding from the toe) is gross. I'm a little more lenient on fingernails, but still, long isn't good. Short fingernails are more classy, and are cleaner.

    I bite my nails profusely, so this isn't a problem to me. I usually don't like guys with long fingernails because they always clip me in the face during an intense game of backyard basketball.

    Is this nonsense what the evolutionists are telling you? Don't believe this bullshit. We've had toenails since the dawn of man, and we will have them until all of mankind perishes.

    Again, why do we need toenails?

    Last time I checked, we still had wisom teeth and appendixes. This "evolutionary process" sure is slow. Or maybe, it's just plain stupid.

    Not all of us have wisdom teeth. And those of us that do end up having them pulled because we don't need them. What do we need an appendix for.

    WHAT DO WE NEED TOENAILS FOR?????

    And does anyone here have a normal looking pinkie toenail??

    How the hell am I supposed to know? Point is, we have them. Evolution must have overlooked it.

    Scratching our legs with our feet?

    Yes

    I'm sure at one time, they did serve a purpose...to provide extra traction. I imagine now they just provide a small amount of protection for the tips of the toes....like little crash helmets.

    LOL, little crash helmets...I'll buy that. I want to go draw little faces on them now. I think my most beat up toe will be Evel Knievel.

    As you're probably already aware, they are vestigial claws, same as our fingernails. But it's not as though life forms lose features the moment they aren't really being used anymore. Environmental and sexual selection are what determines what stays, and what goes. There is no conscious goal with evolution.

    Probably not, nor a normal looking pinkie toe. You only see those on people who grow up not wearing shoes.

    Solid evidence for Intelligent Design. Or perhaps it is more appropriately called 'Retarded Design'. Given that the Bible says that humans were made in God's image, and humans are retarded, then its no surprise that God himself is a retard. Right?

    Cretin. You made me choke on my grapes.

    I don't grow my nails out. I always found it annoying. Plus for hygiene issues as well. I am always distrustful of people who work in food preparation who have long nails... especially when they wear nail polish. God knows what's growing under there. Short and neat and clean is the way I keep mine. Once they have grown past the tip of my finger, I file them down.

    As for toenails... It's too much when you can see that they have grown. I saw this guy the other day in the supermarket and he had sandals on. I kid you not, his toenails were just about touching the floor. They looked like claws. It was disgusting.:bawl:

    I do find toenails tastier than fingernails, anyone else find that true as well?

    May I ask, did anyone find a bag of WHAT THE FUCK in here? If so, could you please return it to the lost and found. Cheers.
