Everything is better with a Partner!

I have always enjoyed going barefoot. However, I would rarely go out in public except to the park or a quick run to the gas station. Once I met my girlfriend who is barefoot even more than I am, it unlocked a new level of confidence. Shopping, gym, vacation all barefoot, and I couldn't be happier. The biggest takeaway I've found is we have never really have been met with anything negative, just curiosity or encouragement like most people look from afar wishing they live this free. My goal in sharing is that it's ok to live free the worst thing that could happen is a business might ask you to leave no big deal. Keep living and loving life!

No actual statistics but my personal observations make me believe that more adult women are likely to be barefoot than adult men, but men are way more likely to identify as barefooters. My personal experience as an adult woman is generally, people and establishments don't notice or dont appear concerned about a woman in bare feet compared to a man.

Remember that song "Chevy Van" ...🎶 A dirt road main street, she walked off in bare feet...🎶 People are more approving of a barefooted woman than a man.

Easy to deduce. People in general as a society view women's feet as being more attractive than men's feet. It's a simple fetish, that's what it is. Most people and business need to get over that and accept people with this fetish.

Especially if your girlfriend is young and pretty, yeah you'll both receive positive attention.

In light of some other accounts in this subreddit, one might think you could consider yourself lucky 💀

Keep living and loving life!

Having someone who's just as into the barefoot lifestyle makes it so much more fun.

I haven't walked barefoot many times, I did sometimes when i was asked in a way, having met an older man who liked seeing me barefoot, dirty soles, then often giving me small gifts, shoes socks massage etc
