njc110381 Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 You lot have some strange issues and possibly need to get out shooting a bit more Up until now i never even thought that walking in bare feet is a big deal. I'm with Tom on this - what's the issue? I walk about with bare feet all over the house and garden, as I walk around the house or the garden in shoes or work boots. It's the floor for **** sake, not your dinner plate. Unless you spend the evening licking your dinner off of the living room carpet I really can't see what difference it makes? And my sofa has seen my bare **** more than once - you may want to think about that before sitting down if you ever visit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goodo123 Posted September 12, 2013 Report Share Posted September 12, 2013 I walk about in bare feet as much as I can, some on here may cringe but yes I do sometimes pop into the garden or to the car in bare feet, then yes walk back into my house without a 10 stage sanitizeing procedure. I don't and have never had any problems with my feet, no infections nothing. Not rock hard skin either. We were born without shoes, we lived millions of years without shoes, plenty of people in other countries live without shoes. As for the hygiene aspect, transmitting germs etc, you probably come into contact with the same amount of germs on a day to day basis anyway. Some people also say "if your too clean it will kill you". Your immune system needs a threat to attack to build up a resistance. Once it's been built up then your body is less susceptible to it's effects. So a overall lower risk of whatever bug causing u damage. I'm not UN hygieneic but I don't mind a bit of filth now and then. The looks I get at work sometimes when it's a stinky messy job and I just get on with it without moaning. I've seen the biggest hardest "men" nearly throw up from a whiff of something what's unpleasant. I'm sure most of you understand about immune systems etc but thought I'd post it anyway.

Its not about your bare feet on your carpet, its about others turning up, mainly in the summer months, and walking about the hosts carpet.

aris Posted September 12, 2013 Report Share Posted September 12, 2013 (edited) Even perfectly clean feet will release sweat and oils which can dirty a carpet over time by attracting more dirt. The solution is wood floors of course Edited September 12, 2013 by aris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The solution is wood floors of course No, the solution is to not go to the offendeds house any more! Will no doubt have them wondering why nobody comes to visit!

Hamster Posted September 12, 2013 Report Share Posted September 12, 2013 what a poxy thread, wish I would have thought of something else that annoys You're right, the proper thing to hate is when a visitor has a dump in you toilet, I sooooo prefer my own foul smells.
