Q: If I write to "Girl H," will she write back?
A: Maybe. Due to the large volume of mail, "Girl H" can not answer each e-mail personally, but she does read each and every message, and does answer those messages that interest her the most.

Q: Will "Girl H" be my pen pal?
A: No.

Q: Will she provide any additional pictures of her feet?
A: At this time, there are no additional pictures available. Our intent is to simply satisfy the curiosity of anyone who wants to know what a six-toed foot looks like. We feel that the one picture that we have posted is sufficient.

Q: Does "Girl H" ever feel any "odd sensations" in her sixth toe?
A: "Girl H" responds, "I don't have any kind of odd or different sensations in my extra toes. They feel just like the other five. So, unfortunately, my extra toes don't give me the power to harness lightning or predict the football pool at work, which, come to think of it, would be very useful."

Q: Why are you making fun of people with six toes?
A: That's not what we're doing at all! Everybody is unique in their own special way, as Mister Rogers might say. People with six toes (or six fingers) are unique in an especially unique way. We prefer to think of FeetNotes as a celebration of the diversity of life. We certainly don't intend to offend any polydactyls who might be in our audience!

Q: Does having six toes cause any problems? Would you prefer to have five toes?
A: "Girl H" responds, "The only trouble having twelve toes has ever caused was finding stylish shoes, and I can live with that. I have never wanted to get rid of my extra toes. I would never sacrifice my extra toes to become a slave of the shoe industry."

Q: If your parents had your extra fingers removed why didn't they do the same to your toes?
A: "Girl H" responds, "I know it sounds kind of strange that my toes were left alone, while my fingers were removed, but I assure you, my parents exercised good judgement. My extra fingers were growing out sideways. If they had been left on, chances are I would have spent my life banging and breaking them on a regular basis, so my parents opted to have them removed. As for my feet, my extra toes developed normally, so there was no reason to surgically remove them."

Q: Would you like to have six fingers too? Would you like to get your extra fingers back?
A: "Girl H" responds, "I can't say that I've ever wanted my extra fingers back. I really enjoy wearing gloves, and if I had my extra fingers back, I'd have to lead a life of mitten wearing. I shiver at the thought!"

Q: Are you self-conscious of your feet when you bare them in public? How do people react when they notice that you have twelve toes?
A: "Girl H" responds, "I'm not self-conscious about people seeing my feet in public at all. Luckily, my feet look pretty normal, and you really can't tell that I have extra toes unless for some crazy reason you stop and count them. It's kinda neat going barefoot at places like the beach, because I leave six-toed footprints in the sand. Once in a while you'll see someone stop, look at the footprints and laugh. Once I tell someone about my extra toes, (because I think only one person has ever noticed my extra toes on their own,) I get all kinds of reactions. Most people think it's very cool, (otherwise no one would be checking out the Feetnotes website and writing in!) There are some people who get a little freaked out and look at me funny for a while, but they eventually get over it. Other people don't know quite what to say."

Q: If you have kids, what would you do if they turn out to have six fingers and toes like yourself? Would you keep all the fingers and toes, just keep the toes (like yourself), or have all the "extraneous" digits removed?
A: "Girl H" responds, "Well, I don't have any children yet, but if I did have children, there is a 90 per cent chance that they would have both twelve toes and twelve fingers. I wouldn't remove any of their extra digits, unless there was some kind of problem with them. For instance, since my extra fingers were sticking out sideways, and my parents were concerned that they would get banged and broken often, my extra fingers were removed. If my hypothetical children were going to have a problem like that, then I would have the extra digits removed. But if everything was fine, I would just leave them alone."

Q: Are there any other people in your family with six fingers and toes?
A: "Girl H" responds, "There is only one other family member that still has extra digits, and that's one of my uncles. He has both twelve fingers and twelve toes. My father and one of my brothers had extra toes and fingers, but they were kind of abnormally formed, so they were removed. By looking at them, you wouldn't be able to tell that they had extra digits at all."

Q: Why aren't there any questions about Norman's shoes?
A: Good question! The only thing we can figure is, everybody who looked at Norman's shoes went insane, and were unable to write! If you have any questions about Norman's shoes, feel free to post them!
