the force between your feet and the floor is greater while standing on your tiptoes than while standing flat on your feet

is it ???? the PRESSURE may be greater (stilletoe heels and line an pock marks) but that's the same force over a smaller area.
So, I'd disagree .

yes thats correct....becuase all of your weight is concentrated on a small area compared to the larger surface area of your feet!
is that what your question was?
