What Is It That You Can't Stand The Sight Of?

Question

I hate going shopping and seeing people in bare feet. It's gross!
Bare feet is for the beach.
I'm interested if anyone feels the same way about this or anything else?

Answer 1

You may dislike the sight of bare feet, but it's NOT unhealthy or gross. What's the big visual difference with flipflops anyhow, there's just a tiny strap covering the foot, and almost the entire foot is still visible. Dirt on the sole of the foot isn't going to hurt anyone, our skin is made to keep pathogens out and feet are fully washable. Nor is it against any laws to go barefoot in public. It's sad so many folks in the US are biased against bare feet, and so many stores have signs that *falsely* claim health department requirements.

Answer 2

I must be one of those people you hate seeing in bare feet when you go shopping!
I am always barefoot when I go to the shopping centre.
To me barefoot is a great look but that is just my opinion.

Answer 3

In general, being barefoot promotes healthy development of musculature in the feet and legs, while excessive reliance on shoes tends to promote atrophy and weakness in those same muscles. This suggests that overdependency on shoes can have serious consequences. A study published in the September 2006 issue of Arthritis and Rheumatism found that “modern shoes may exacerbate the abnormal mechanics of lower-extremity osteoarthritis.” Researchers concluded that maybe it was time to re-evaluate our daily walking programs,
presumably to include time for walking barefoot.

Even various shoe manufactures recognize the
benefits of nature’s original design. Some have even developed designs that attempt to simulate being barefoot to some extent. Of course, anyone who desires to get that barefoot feeling, can simply save their money and just go barefoot.
Nike Free: Nike researchers developed a training shoe that simulates barefoot running. The Nike Free was born as a result of researchers watching the Stanford track and field team practice and perform training exercises barefoot.
Swiss Masai Barefoot Technology: This shoe style provides less support and stabilization, requiring the foot muscles to work during the act of walking. As a result, the feet become stronger, more developed, and less prone to aches and pains.
Newton Running: This new shoe’s active membrane retracts as the foot rolls onto its toes requiring the runner to land on the forefoot or midsole as opposed to heel-first landings. A technique widely used by barefoot runners.
Topless Sandals: A sole-only shoe that adheres to the sole by virtue of adhesive. Its like wearing a flip-flop but without the strap.
Bottomless Sandals: Available in bejeweled or simple hemp and leather designs, this “footwear” is designed for barefooters who wish to stay grounded and essentially barefoot while decorating their feet in attractive style.

The spirit of barefooting is, or at least once was, alive and well in all of us. Do you remember how good it felt to go barefoot when you were a child? Even now, as adults, do we still have that spirit? When we can’t wait to get home and relax after a hard day, does this mean kicking off our shoes in order to do so? Or, if we are planning a holiday or vacation, do we factor in the proximity of sandy beaches, grassy fields, or a natural trail well-suited for bare feet? Can any of us truly imagine being fully comfortable while wearing shoes? Yet how often do we choose the barefoot spirit? How often can we? The truth is we all have the freedom to go barefoot whenever and wherever we want. Most of us, however, just don’t realize it. If we knew it was OK to forget about shoes when it was time for walking the dog, getting the mail, or even while out shopping, how many of us would choose to go barefoot? Why render our feet deaf and blind if we don’t need to? Imagine having to wear gloves or ear plugs every time you left the house. Think of all the wonderful sensory input you would miss. Now imagine expanding avenues of sensory input. Imagine being able to feel the wide variety of interesting textures and pleasant surfaces beneath your own two feet as you go about your daily business. You can.

“Going barefoot is the gentlest way of walking and can symbolize a way of living-being authentic, vulnerable, sensitive to our surroundings. It’s the feeling of enjoying warm sand beneath out toes, or carefully making our way over sharp rocks in the darkness. It’s a way of living that has the lightest impact, removing the barrier between us and nature.”
From the book “Barefoot Dreaming” by Adele Coombs

I guess you're gonna have to get used to seeing bare feet around because there are more and more barefooters around and as awareness increases of the truth's associated with it, it will only keep increasing.

"What spirit is so empty and blind, that it cannot grasp the fact that a human foot is more noble than the shoe and human skin more beautiful than the garment with which it is clothed." Michelangelo
