When Wales joined the UK they noticed a law flaw. Steal a sheep = death. Fuck a sheet = hand loss. So when caught they claimed sheep sex.
This skewed the official statistics forever making Wales a nation of sheep sex lovers.
TheCarolingian
It's about Wales, where men are real men, women are real women, and sheep are nervous.
generalsplayingrisk
Wait no pls im still confused. Is the idea that someone boned a sheep and had this kid? Cause that's not what id expect from that pairing.
It's also the bunt end of sister-shagging and mom-mating jokes, much like the south in US. Hence the deformity.

On a different note, Welsh and Irish are not races. I am Irish, Scottish, and a white person.
Rasayana
Three reasons for the English to make fun of you... possibly four.
Scotts Irish, American, or mixed parentage. Don't tell the Irish they're not a different race from the English. They'll cut you.
And is there some stereotype about Welsh people having odd feet? Still don't get it.
The deformed feet come from sister-shagging.
Kingaby
There's not much mobility in the valleys, so the gene pool is a tad shallow. Nothing to do with the sheep thing. Webbed toes is VERY common.
StevieMcSteveface
Nope, it's just a very very bad joke. The standard stereotype is that the Welsh are "sheepshaggers" but this doesn't match with that at all.
Iowyn
Oh man! Why aren't all our feet like that? I feel this would be way more useful, even moving your blankets while in bed.
Indian9000
They're not too good for running and walking
Perhaps we would have instead developed some form of four-limbed brachiation instead?
I wonder though, wouldn't our shows make the difference? I did think about it.
This person's foot doesn't have much of a heel, which is what takes the brunt of the impact when taking a step also the big toe>
On a normal foot helps to stabilize you, though I imagine this guy has some sort of custom made shoes to make walking easier.
Well, I guess I'm happy with my fairly regular feet then. Still. I'd make it my party trick if it were me.
