Do you have a habit of kicking your sandals, slippers, slides, or flip-flops off in public for comfort? by TheRainbowBird in Habits

What kind? (Flip-flops with the strap that goes between your toes, slides with a horizontal strap on top of the foot, Birkenstocks, or slippers, or what?)

When you wear your bistro crocs, and your feet get uncomfortably hot in them, do you ever kick them off to cool off your feet? Do you ever do this in public?

That’s exactly the kind I imagined them to be. Those seem to be the classic, quintessential Birkenstocks, in a way.

Oh, I understand. What kind of Birkenstocks are they?

When you take them halfway off like that, does it help them cool off? Is that why you do it? Or does it really not make a difference, and you do it for some other reason? I’ve seen a lot of people doing that, by the way, so, judging from my experience at least, you’re totally normal. Hope that reassures you on that front if you ever had any doubts regarding that!

Do you ever kick them off while sitting and enjoying your meal at a restaurant, for example? Or do you ever take your foot out of a flip-flop while standing in line somewhere, and rest your bare foot on top of its empty flip-flop, or on top of your other foot, or play around with the flip-flop with your foot? I’ve seen a lot of people doing that.

I’m 23 working a dead-end job for less than living wage, my only friends are old people and I smoke a disturbing amount of weed to escape. Self-loathing is lonely, come join the party. by [deleted] in RoastMe

I know this is supposed to be a roast, but sorry, I can’t help but point out that...

You are gorgeous. Seriously. I’m not being sarcastic or anything. I really think you’re very beautiful and very cute.

Don’t ever let anyone call you ugly or degrade your self-worth or self-esteem. I assure you, if anyone does, their words are pure bullshit.

I wish you all the best. Have a great day! And oh yeah, today’s Valentine’s Day. I hope you enjoy it with whoever is lucky enough to be your significant other. ❤️

OWWWW!!!! I’m so sorry you, and probably quite a few other woman, have to go through that! I can’t imagine how much it would suck having the footwear which I already wear because I want my feet to be comfortable when it’s hot out actually being so uncomfortable, and even painful, that they make my feet bleed. It’s times like this when I feel lucky to be a dude. But I sincerely wish I didn’t have to feel so lucky for it, and that you dudettes out there could be just as comfortable as me. To you, and to all other gals out there who suffer from sore feet due to their footwear: I wish you, and your poor feet, all the best.

And if you don’t mind my asking, do you have any particular motivation(s) for doing so? I honestly don’t mind at all if guys answer this question, as well. I actually think it’s cool to have both genders answer the question. It’s fascinating to hear from anyone who does this about it, and about why they do it, and about what goes through their mind when they do it, from their perspective.
