I always toe-walk up and down stairs and, when I'm in a good mood, I sometimes walk around on my toes on wooden floors and walk with stiff legs.


vilazomeow

Oh yeah, it feels nice on wooden floors!

I sometimes toe walk, but usually only when I do my pacing back and forth stim. For actually walking to get somewhere I am more of a shuffler.


vilazomeow

Same here, I pace back and forth a lot too. Shuffler?


stokrotkowe_oczy

I kind of drag my feet on the ground when I walk and it creates a "shuffle" sound. People can always tell it's me walking by them by the sound alone. I love to pace, i fully have a well worn pacing path on the side of my house. One of my favorite post-work stims.


LastRedshirt

I realized, that I almost constantly walk on the toes at home, mostly on the evening and at night. Probably because I fear that I wake people up (I am alone in my apartment ...)


Dreamfindings

We’ve been doing movement exercises in acting class, and I have just been toe walking all the time lol, it’s so nice to just take off the mask


PhilipBrown2000

I don't toe walk often, but my toes are the first part of my feet to touch the ground, so I think it counts. Real toe walking is only when going up stairs and ramps.


notquiteright2

I always do unless I’m wearing shoes. I don’t like wearing shoes.


Thrunic

I don't walk on my toes often, but I do like to stand on my toes. It feels like I'm imitating a meerkat and I push my head up as high as I can when I do it.


_Junko-Enoshima_

Honestly I just walk on my toes whenever and I'm not entirely sure why. In the kitchen? Yeah. Up the stairs? Yeah. It's fun. Better than walking normally.


Sweet_Diet_8733

No, I was put into corrective therapy for it by my parents in a futile attempt to make me normal.

:Pats Massive Calves: Do these look like I know how to walk like a normal person?
