I originally posted this in the non-tickling discussion, but I decided to re-post it here, as it does devolve into a tickling topic...
I just traveled to Phoenix on business. On the way back, at Sky Harbor airport, they had an interesting security precaution. Rather than just sending your carry-on through the x-ray machine, they were requiring all passengers to take their shoes off and send those through as well. So, of course, everybody passing through the metal detector had to go through barefoot.
I couldn't help noticing the mixed bag of reactions from passengers asked to remove their shoes. My deviant mind immediately began racing with off the wall inspection scenarios of womens' bare feet.
On a related note, I've always found it interesting how some people have no qualms whatsoever about going barefoot in public (even putting their bare feet up on chairs or even tables, while others are terribly shy about exposing their feet to anybody. [*fantasy alert*] How sweet it would be if somebody in this latter category found themselves in the stocks, in a public place (like a renaissance festival); the 'inquisitor' would then remove their shoes and socks in front of the crowd (ignoring the victim's pleas), and ask for volunteers out of the crowd to tickle them silly! The double embarrassment of having their feet exposed to the world and being tickled would be pure beauty!
