First Time

@NudistPaul Because it is unappetizing to look at someone's dirty feet while shoes don't show "that" level of dirt or take on that level of smell. It's called showing respect for others you are sharing society with instead of only thinking of your own self-gratifying interests. You moron.

@MarkPaul It seems so many people love to tout freedom. The thing is freedom includes the freedom of other people to do what you don't like. Don't like it? Too bad. Don't look.

You may not like to look at people with purple hair, face tattoos, septum piercings, simply being obese, or lots of other things. No store denies service to such people. If you see such people, you're free not to like them, but you have to grudgingly accept them nonetheless being out in public. The fact that you might not to see such people is irrelevant. They have just as much freedom as you. If you don't want to see such people, stay home. Nobody should have to contort themselves to please your delicate sensibilities.

"Unappetizing" isn't a valid reason.

BTW: feet that are bare don't smell. It's only feet that have been sweating in shoes all day that smell.

You fascist imbecile.

That's why we have this forum.

Superlative!

@NudistPaul I don't know about "great," but you are very kind.
