Girls are nicer than men and I've not gotten any flack over my spd's, but even though I've got small feet and all I'm thinking a bigger platform than the spd's should still be to my advantage.
I use spd's too, and didn't even realise that it was an issue, until I got my new road bike, and the LBS guys were asking how come I was using MTB clips with a road bike? It doesn't really worry me, and I use spd's because my DH comes from an MTB background and wanted to interchange his shoes and bikes (he's now got a road bike as well and put spd's on them too). I've come to get used to them, and find them easy to get into etc.

Is there some sort of road etiquette or dare I say snobbery about MTB pedals on a roadbike?
