I live in a community with a large population of asians & I can honestly say that I have NEVER seen a man from pakistan wearing platform shoes. The ladies do though nearly always wear open sandals/slip ons. Also, the men I have seen either wear full shoes (flat) or flat open toe slip ons, even in winter. I always wonder why when it's so cold

You've GOT to be joking lol??....ive yet still to come across people like that....actually, been to Walthamstow (East London) a few times, there's a huge Pakistani community and not one guy was in platforms, the ladies are dressed in the many colourful tunic and trousers, dont see anything wrong in that either as us Indian ladies wear the same..we usually like to match out outfits with our shoes and slippers/sandles too...just like any other western women....so, no difference there !!!!

Do what? Okay that's wierd, but my guess is that they want to be closer to God or appear taller than they are. Okay thinking about this and how they view "dirt" it could be so that they don't have dirty feet when they go into a mosque. Sandles/slip ons are for "lower class." The worst thing that could happen to you as a Muslim other than being disowned by your family/shunned is being beat with a sandal that means you are lower than dirt..so I think it's along those lines, hope that helps.

I saw once a pakistani wearing a plastic bag in his oneleg and barefoot on the other.
Pakistani women are beautiful.

Well I am a British Pakistani girl, I dont think its true. and IF it is, I think its because it allows Pakistani men to look taller than us, so there is a bigger height difference. I guess we are willing to put up with the male ego and we have very pretty feet.
PS: I dont hate Britain and dont have plans to leave, you will just have to deal with it trent, you will just have to deal with it.
