Am I the only one who dislikes barefoot shoes?

[Fire_Sprite]

When spring and summer roll around I always see a bunch of posts from people looking forward to seeing girls in flats, flip flops, and sandals. I always thought the concept of those kinds of shoes was kind of gross, especially flats.

With any other kind of clothing that you wear against the skin its generally accepted that you wash it after wearing it one day, or maybe a couple more times if you're more slobbish. But with shoes you put your barefeet in you wear them day after day after day with minimal if any washing. And they're not just worn against your skin like regular clothes. You spend the whole day grinding your full weight against them, rubbing all the dead skin and oils from the part of your body with a very high concentration of sweat pores. Its generally even worse because they're worn during the particularly hot times of the year.

I have trouble being attracted to a girls feet if they just came out of those bacteria traps. Guys turned on by the less hygienic aspects of feet might find that hotter, but for me its kind of bleh.

Not saying women are obligated to wear whatever I find attractive, but its weird to see so many foot lovers on the forum like these shoes. It'd be like regular folks getting turned on by women wearing the same bra and panties every day.

I always wash my flip flops atleast once or twice a week; the foam-like ones.

but flats are a massive problem...😡😡

I will never wear shoes without socks again! Thanks for this very vivid image! 🙂

omg, I totally never thought of that. That is gross. I'm not a footguy and don't really care for girls in flip flops anyways bc i don't need to see their feet, but now I'm definately not going to touch girls feet who just wore flipflops lol.. well if ?I remember this post anywas..

I can't wear flip flops anyway cause I have bad feet. But I do wash my flats.

 

[proud2tickle]

i dont like flats.... but flip flops are different like heels they are just well awesome, i like boots and all that i mean its just ur prefrence i guess

 

[maniactickler]

I still get an instant woody when i see nice feet in flip flops!

 

[-Hari-]

its a mixed bag for me, on one hand its nice to see them and if im on the hunt for a lady friend then I can straight away see if they have "the goods" but on the other hand, I prefer in general girls who keep they're feet in socks and comfortable trainers so when unwrapped im faced with soft well kept tootsies 😀

I agree! Bacteria traps I tell ya...shoes and socks for me only otherwise I will pass on the foot play tickle wise.

peace out,

And this is why I love you. 🙂

Hear folks coming into class "*SLAPPYSLIDE SLAPPYSLIDE SLAPPYSLIDE*"

Interesting how girls like this always had this vapid look in their eyes, and chewed gum with their mouths open. Ugh.

There is much to be said for shoe and sock removal on my end. It's just more enjoyable!

Shoes and socks would contain more bacteria as they enclose the feet. In sandals, at least everything is in the open air, like hands.
From the results so far, looks like I'm alone anyway concerning sandals and flats. More bare feet for me.
Besides, women who came over for foot worship sessions that had smelly feet, (because of the bacteria), I would tend to wash them first, part of a sensual warm up to the festivities. One gal liked the foot washing prelude so much, she'd wear socks and shoes all day before coming over, just so that I would wash them first. When I called her on this, she just smiled the biggest smile. Such yummy size 11's she had too. Ah, those were the days.

But if they wore socks there would be hardly any body residue in the shoes, and people change their socks daily.

One way or the other, feet have the potential to be nasty, whether you're sweating all day in tightly closed flats, socks and sneakers, or you've got flip flops or sandals, keeping your feet aired out, but exposed to all the debris you encounter (not to mention creating callouses!). I like the spring and summer when I see women wearing flip flops, because I like what I see, and I keep the thoughts at that pleasant, visual level. I try not think any further than that, because that's when I start thinking of the nastiness as the original poster described. Sometimes, those thoughts are unavoidable, like when I'm working hard outdoors, and sweating, myself, knowing how nasty I feel, or when you see a flip flop coming away from a foot that's practically black from dirt as someone walks!

Basically, I know where the original poster is coming from, but I try not to think about it too much. I'll check out women walking around downtown, but I know I'm not going to do anything with them. I even wash my wife's feet before massaging them.

I'm a toe fetish guy so I just concentrate on how the toes look when they're in sandals and flippers. I'm not going to be sucking toes or licking anyone's feet so the cleanliness doesn't bother me in the slightest UNLESS I can see crusty heels and dirty soles.

I'm among those who love it when women wear flip-flops and sandals.

Simple Solution---

All females old enough to be called women need to have at least one "feet tender person" (kinda like Julia Roberts was said to have when filming Peter Pan) where they would have their feet regularly washed, scrubbed, brushed and properly tended to in order that they be in proper shape to be tickled by the first person into tickling.

If you like the idea we can start a Volunteer Thread🙂
