VainJane said:Hey, with good reason. You can get all sorts of nasy things when you walk around barefoot....for one, you can get plantar's warts on your feet--which I can attest to, having used to walk around barefoot a lot. Now I'm paying for it-- I had to have two plantar warts removed (very painful) and am now struggling with a plantar wart that is taking forever to go away and is somewhat uncomfortable.
You can also get nail fungus, which my dad has. Very gross.
Try duct tape and flowers of sulfur for the plantar warts.
I walk barefoot. The soles of my feet are like shoe leather, though. I could walk over hot coals and tiptoe through Ebola; nothing's getting through the layers of dead skin on my feet. My feet glow orange in the sun with milky translucent calluses. They make hard slapping noises on pavement like vulcanized rubber soles. I have feet made to crush grapes into wine. You'd need a belt or disc sander with a diamond grit grinding wheel on it to make my feet permeable to hookworms.
Keira's lovely, shoeless or no. If she picks up something through her walking barefoot, it will be a public service announcement to some, but only to those with soft, mushy leisure class feet. I have the hardworking feet of the proletariat, impervious to broken glass, bugs, the aforementioned hot coals and Ebola. Vives les barefeet!
Thanks for the info!! I'll definitily try the duct tape idea!!
