ewww
maybe this post will make people more conscious of their feet and they will stop wearing sandals


Or else take better care of them.

Of course men should never wear sandals outside of a public shower room, and women with hooves instead of feets should never wear sandals or anything that shows the hooves.

Well, once the tariffs are in full swing all the pools will be wearing sandals cobbled together for discarded tires and some shoelaces.

I'm guessing some sort of fashion police force. OP, please share what you feel would be acceptable fines and punishments. You seem like the type to want to bring public floggings and stonings back.

If you are fortunate, your health will allow you to age till your an old biddy - drop the ageism.

I worked in an office where the HR VP tried to enforce a pantyhose dress code while his lover assistant walked around the office in a silk lace camisole. The majority of the staff were women, including the president, and he threw in the towel when she walked into the office in a St John knit skirt suit, black patent heels, and...no hose.


It's not about the age, but rather the outlook and the attitude. I'm old and didn't find PPs comment offensive at all.

Can we ban ignorant posts such as this one instead?

I'd vote for shorts/pants over the bottom, not riding under the bottom.

I also grew up in California and lots of men where Tevas or similar. Those Adidas slides were popular when I was in high school and college. I don't find that attractive but I don't have a problem with it. It makes sense for an outdoorsy, athletic lifestyle in a warm climate.

Same. I grew up in South Florida with lots of surfer friends. The men looked great in leather Rainbows and reefs.

The feet I take offense to are hairy feet with gnarly toenails. Or men who walk like ducks in flip flops because they don't know how to walk in them properly.

I always wear flip flops outside in the summer. It's how I stay cool and not overheat.

No, sandals do not need to be banned.

Women on this site with a strange obsession over certain body parts, however, need to better recognize that their personal issues with the human body is not normal. There is a lot of weird projection going on in that other thread (and this one).
