Guest Iain C Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 I never have bare feet generally. My first act upon getting out of bed is to put pants and socks on. I sometimes go barefoot if the shoes and situation call for it - no need to wear socks with boat shoes, and bare feet with plimsols is a comfortable way to go in the summer - but it's always covered by shoes. Also, I hate the feeling of denim especially but also other materials around my bare ankles. It just feels wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siegecow Posted May 31, 2009 Author Share Posted May 31, 2009 it appauls me too i say keep a pair of flip flops (not slippers) right by the door so you can throw them on for unexpected company. WHAT HAPPENED TO TRADITION DAMNIT i haven't worn 'flip flops' since i was 12, and don't intend to ever again for the rest of my life. what if my tradition is to walk around the house barefoot? Dont even think about wearing slippers. Thats a whole nother thread right there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest taxman Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 the way my apartment is set up i have to go out my door and down some stairs to the front door which is always locked, so i put on shoes before going down to let someone in. when i lived in a house i would answer the door barefoot. i also walked around outside my house barefoot. it's very dirty here and i wouldn't attempt it now.

chenGOD Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 In seoul, bare feet all the time. In Canada, slippers and or bare feet, but only because the floor of my house is cold as a mothafucker. Yek, even when it's dry out, there's a no shoes policy in my house. How do you know you haven't just stepped where some dog pissed, or there's some gum on the bottom of your shoes. In Korea - no shoes in houses period. Never. Maybe some crazy yankees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QBLA Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 i've answered the door in the past with a bath towel... i even went out to get the paper in a bath towel, then looked at my neighbor and said "sup!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcock Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 i basically constantly wear my shoes in my house, but my house is a tip. as soon as i walk into someone elses i am immediately compelled to take them off, in the same way that as soon as i sit in a car i have an immediate urge to put my seatbelt on.

chenGOD Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 what about if someone has stinking feet? you're a man of sport, chenGOD, i bet yr feet stink I have this wonderful technological device called a shower. This combined with some kind of magikal potion named "soap" prevents my feet from stinking. If someone's feet smell so bad that I can smell them while they're merely in the same room, I would bathe them as any good christian would.

Siegecow Posted May 31, 2009 Author Share Posted May 31, 2009 i've answered the door in the past with a bath towel... i even went out to get the paper in a bath towel, then looked at my neighbor and said "sup!" see, thats so casual it trancends the need for shoes. It bypasses the struggle for a common identity in a foreign encounter, everythings just out on the line like that! I bet most slaves answered the door in a bath towel in egyptian times. It doesnt have quite the same "readytogoness" as answering the door in raingear and a backpack, but it welcomes the guest in without implying the need for social formalities. It's very in the moment, zen! Im sure in an asian or european country its different. I imagine in every japanese home right by the door there lies a small basin, mirror and clippers so one might ensure a certain standard of grooming in those you let in your home. Or in many europen countries ive been told that most all apartments encircle an open-air public bath which im sure eliminates (or at least greatly reduces) the number of encounters with shoe-sporting strangers (though im sure you might get a few cases of wet feet!)
