I think you're thinking about it too much! It's just a dump for random thoughts, enthusiasms or questions, and shouldn't be taken too seriously. Just ignore the willy-waving (I agree it's irksome). I have no problem admitting that I know sweet fuck all about the tradition of shoemaking; I just find it to be an interesting area of craft/culture and I like learning about such things. Plus wearing and looking after them is fun for a dull boy like myself.
