Marilyn: “How are all you handsome GI’s doing?

GI’s: “fap, fap, fap, fap…”

Why in the world is she wearing such ill-fitting shoes? Is there a story behind this? I’m genuinely curious.

That was bugging me, too. A little research provides the answers, though:

1. During the war, only half of women’s shoes were produced - the rest of the valuable leather went to making bullets for the war effort. Obviously, you can’t sell only a left or right shoe, so each shoe consisted of half a real shoe.

2. Marylin Monroe actually wore a men’s size 10 1/2 shoe.
