Yes, but just barely. I’d never considered it before until I read this question, so I tried it and it was harder than I thought. I had to push my other toes downward and out of the way for it to work.

That visual made me giggle.

Move out of the way!
I’m trying to do something here!

Sadly, no.

smudges's avatar

Yes, but only on my right one. I guess I’m “right-toed”.

Nope. But today I have posted on Qs with sap-butts, sex in space, and now, toe agility.
This is a good day. :-)

Damn it! No.
But I can wiggle my little toe all over, independent of the other toes. Can you do that?

canidmajor's avatar

Me! @Dutchess_III, I can!! Yay us! While people are watching the big toe, our stealth little toes will be domina5ing the universe!!!

I only recently realized that not everyone can do this. My family is about split down the middle convinced that the other half has weird toes. Wasn’t sure what the norm was. It seems like majority is leaning towards not being able to do this?

Thanks for wiggling your toes to answer my question!

@canidmajor and @Dutchess_III I’m onto your little toe shenanigans!

^^^Right on!

So much for stealth.

I can’t. Now I feel somehow incomplete.

canidmajor's avatar

@Hawaii_Jake Check your little toe, @Dutchess_III and I are forming a club.

jca2's avatar

I can.

Hawaii_Jake's avatar

@canidmajor I can move my little toe side to side a little. :D

I can’t, because my big toes were transplanted to my hands to replace my thumbs, which were lost in a failed effort to remain master of my domain. ;-(

@Brian1946

Do you think that your toe-thumbs are adequate opposable digits?

Brian1946's avatar

@Incoherency_

I do, and I can move them from side to side!

I wonder if that means I can answer yes to this OP.
