Whats this big thing about being barefoot?

People make it sound like it's something amazing, and challenging to do!

I dont understand.

I mean, it's as hard as - dont put shoes on....pretty basic really.

I grew up hardly wearing shoes, still only do it for work, and dressing up.
Maybe wear them a bit more in winter, coz i'm getting older,and my feet dont stay as warm.

But it seems peoples concepts about bare feet have become heightened for some reason, or am i misconsconstruing things?

@BoobooSnafu I think a lot of people wear shoes more often these days than they used to, so their feet aren't as used to surfaces that aren't soft carpet. So walking outside barefoot can be uncomfortable for them.

Plus, there's the whole stigma of it being dirty and unhygienic, according to some people.
@FaeLuna Dirty and unhygenic?!?!?!?!


Hahahahahahaha 😆 😆 😆

Oh dear, that cracked me up....and yet people touch elevator buttons, escalator rails, and door handles even day!

But thanx for the reply.🤗

Different lifestyles i suppose.
And You're right, some peoples feet would be so soft.


I remember my friend who lived over the road growing up - she HATED shoes!.... Always taking them off.
Once, walking to the park, we heard this crunching sound... She had just walked over broken glass hidden in the grass....and didn't cut her feet in the slightest.

So it's pretty amazing how tough they Can get.

@BoobooSnafu Hey, I agree with you there; I go barefoot quite often. I just know that's some people's reasoning, regardless of how illogical it is!

@BoobooSnafu I agree with you.I have walked through some broken glass by accident too when I was barefooted.My friend told me as I had not even noticed and no injuries.I just brushed off the soles of my feet and kept on walking.
@FaeLuna well, we're talking about society, logic has nothing to do with it.

More like preconceptions, derived from ignorant comments passed on egotisicly as fact, to support an opinion that is argue with irrelevent factors to cover an elitist attitude needed to boost self confidence.

In short.. Some just need to degrade and isolate others to feel better about themselves.

Ignorance of the masses - yay 🙄
