Every once in a while I get messages on my PERSONAL Facebook account from people wanting to discuss feet, sometimes mine specifically, in an erotic or fetish like manner. Every time I have to tell them that I have no interest in feet as objects of desire. Generally these people are middle aged men that are much older than me. This also raises the second disclosure that I apparently need to address.
So, here are the two rumors that I apparently need to dispel.
The first: I have absolutely zero interest in feet as sexual/erotic objects. In my mind they are simply a very important part of my body that I have a respect for and try to treat well. People ask me if I feel "powerful" or "cool" or "hot" and the answer is always no. I simply feel comfortable. I go barefoot because it is healthy and because I like to. It has no deeper meaning to me, no symbolism, no protest, no erotic nature, it's simply a lack of shoes and the natural way. Still, people will find my personal account and ask me these fetish sounding questions and let me announce this publicly for all to see, I do not have a foot fetish and it honestly makes me very uncomfortable when people talk to me as if I do. If you have a foot fetish that's your business, and that's fine, but please, know that I do not view the foot with any sexual connotation at all. It's simply what I use to move.
The second issue: Due to the fact that the people messaging me in this way are almost always middle aged males, I suspected there might be some speculation that I was gay, but I'm used to that in the real world anyway. I was just informed today that there has been some discussion about me and some of you actually have come to the compulsion that I am gay.
This is something I'm used to, but let me take this opportunity to say that I am a firm supporter of gay rights and marriage equality and have many close gay friends. I believe the state has no place to outlaw recognition of the love of two consenting adults and that love in all it's forms is a thing of beauty.
With that said I am a heterosexual. The fact that I support marriage equality means I believe in love over law. It has nothing to do with sexual orientation.
So here's the simple version, I like being barefoot, but don't have a foot fetish, I support marriage equality, but am straight.
If you've messaged me this way, know that I have no negative feelings toward you, but that is not who I am and please respect that.

Generally for three day periods, I live outside and just focus on having fun and being alive.<br />
<br />
These are among my favorite activities after my first one last summer.<br />
<br />
It's a delightful experience and I highly recommend it to anyone that has the time. It's basically urban camping.<br />

He told me it wasn't healthy for them for me to not wear shoes. I guess these people eat off of the floor? Barefoot or not the floor of a popular establishment is not somewhere I'd make my meals. This man thought it appropriate to not only tell me to leave, not listening to the fact that he was unlawfully asking me to leave, but to not allow me to even check out. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">I asked him if he was just going to waste the salad. He said no that he was going to eat it. Hm...so not only did he prevent his company from making a few bucks, he ate for free...now I'm not sure what their employee food privelages are, but at some places that looks an awful lot like stealing. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">This man forcibly removed the tray from my hand and took the food for himself. This is absolutely dispicable and I let him know that. He seemed absolutely confident that he had done nothing wrong...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Well...I have jumped onto the company's facebook page and left this. Just as I was in there legally, there is nothing illicit about exercising my power of free speech to inform the company a member of their staff had thrown me out in a most unsavory way</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">I would ask you to read the post on their page and if you have a facebook please consider leaving a comment on the post showing them that I'm not alone. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">for those of you without a facebook account here is the post:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">"<span style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: left;">I visited your Providence location today to get lunch before I went in for work. I have been shopping there since my freshman year of college, three years ago. Everything was business as usual until I was interrupted at the salad bar by wha</span><span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: left;">t seemed to be a manager of some sort. He told me I could not eat there without shoes. I wasn't eating there. I was getting food and taking it to go. I asked him why and he cited a non existent state law regarding a requirement for patrons to wear shoes when in a food establishment. There are no signs on the door to indicate a policy. </span></span><br />
<span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: left;"><span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br />Let me be perfectly clear. THERE IS NO HEALTH CODE OR OTHER LAW REQUIRING FOOTWEAR IN ANY ESTABLISHMENT. IF THERE IS NO SIGN ON THE DOOR THERE IS NO POLICY. BY REMOVING SOMEONE FROM SAID ESTABLISHMENT THEY ARE BREAKING THE LAW AND COMMITTING DISCRIMINATION.<br /><br />I informed this man that there is no state or federal regulation regarding this issue. He stubbornly refused. He told me to get shoes and come back. I don't wear shoes for health reasons. Something I informed him even though I was under no obligation to discuss my medical requirements as I was in violation of NO regulation. He still insisted that I had to leave. I told him I would complete my purchase and leave. He still refused to budge from his legally indefensible argument. Not only did he tell me I could not pay for the salad I had made at the salad bar, when I asked him if he was just going to waste it, he physically TOOK it from my hands, and walked away with it. Your business won't be making any money off of that will it? This man had no right to take something forcibly from my hands and guess what, it definitely constituted unwanted touching aka Battery under Rhode Island law.<br /><br />"Battery involves unwanted touching. Whether it’s a shove, punch, or even a finger poking the chest in an instigating manner—all of these could be considered battery."<br /><br />Attached is a correspondence between a citizen and the Principal Sanatarian. It makes it abundantly clear in black and white plain english that there are no laws around this.<br /><br />Your employee had no right to remove me from this establishment, no right to forcibly take my food, and treat me this way.<br /><br />This was a despicable and warrantless violation of my rights. I have come to expect more from Gourmet Heaven in the last THREE YEARS I have been shopping barefoot at your location. This man's conduct was unprofessional and illegal. I don't want to have to deal with this in the future. I am now going into work and then another class with no food. I wont be able to eat until dinner time. So thanks to your employee, I am going hungry today and your business lost out on ten dollars."</span></span><br />

This man needs to be know that such blatant discrimination will not be tolerated.</span></span></span><span style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="line-height: 18px;"><br /></span></span></span></span><br />

Photo heavy post...sorry...<br />
<br />
Well folks, I had quite the up and down past few months. We had our crazy storms, Sandy and Nemo. My area was hit...but whenever people asked me how we did, I told them: "Better than New Jersey." Not exactly in good taste but very little of my humor is. Anyway, here are some pictures.<br />
<br />
The storm came in phases, the tide came first, then a break, then the storm, and then high tide again. The storm passed and we went kayaking through the neighborhood by moonlight.<br />

Though the turning point was my spring break in the last week of February. I took a trip out to Stanford University and it was an absolute blast. Those crazy genuises taught me how to have fun again. Back from my vacation, I am now taking more classes than ever and happily working at my job. Sometimes what we need is a good vacation!<br />

Anyway, naturally I have been up to my old antics of urban exploration. I got to see some wonderful mills lately. I actually got to finally revisit the Potter Hill Mill. This place, I kid you not, is the single coolest and most dangerous mill I have ever had the pleasure to visit. In my area it is very uncommon for there to be any machines still in a mill. This one still has yarn on the looms. It is a superbly rare sight and an awful waste. Mismanagement aside, this place is unique in its beauty. </div>

To all those who said glass would one day hurt me, turns out you were right. Though, not how either of us would have imagined. Last night I got a large sliver of glass in my hand... It ripped through every layer of skin leaving a very creepy looking gash in the web between my thumb and index finger. Luckily I have an insanely high pain tolerance and I am pretty much impervious to panic. </span><br />

I've been working nearly nonstop but for the most part it's been good work.<br />
<br />
I worked several jobs in the summer and am still working a few now. I managed to get some spare time this summer, though it was still pretty lonely. I did however get a chance to improve my long boarding skills to a point that I am now able to zip though traffic at high speeds with total maneuverability. I have built up my climbing skills enough that I can confidently conquer nearly any local face with no rope at all. I have done more filming for a A day in THE LIFE, which is fun but it's just a casual hobby. I've still been selling my letterpress stuff and making money on the side.<br />
<br />
The biggest things that have happened to me recently are that I have spontaneously decided to start buying and wearing <i>really </i>high end clothing, for nearly any activity. I've been much more social than usual and have started talking to a lot more people and enjoying it. Finally and perhaps most importantly, I went in for an interview today for a job with my University. It went very well and they were fascinated and accepting of my lack of footwear. The job is a tutor esque role primarily for the Adobe Creative Suite. This job could perhaps, if I play my cards right lead to more employment at the university. Wouldn't it be lovely to be a professor?<br />
<br />
On the subject of bare feet, I have been asked to leave two places so far this school year. Both stories are interesting and brief.<br />
<br />
The first took place at a campus dining facility about a month ago. A man in a culinary uniform came up to me and said I couldn't be here without shoes. I asked him why not mentioning that there is no sign on the door and no JWU policy and he said "It's a law." We all know that's what we in polite society call "horse shit."<br />
<br />
I basically informed him that I had faced this issue before and it had been resolved. I told him that I had hoped that the university had moved on from such foolishness. He informed me that he wasn't even at the university for that. The worker also said that he would speak with the heads of campus dining and that he wasn't aware he needed signs and would be putting them up.<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(175, 192, 227, 0.230469); -webkit-composition-frame-color: rgba(77, 128, 180, 0.230469); -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.296875);"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(175, 192, 227, 0.230469); -webkit-composition-frame-color: rgba(77, 128, 180, 0.230469); -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.296875);">He tried bringing up the feeble old glass arguement. I would not let that stand. I told him he knows just as well as I do the condition of the streets of Providence. He replied with the typical "I know but in here..." I was growing tired with this drone and was really wanting to eat with my roommate who had been patiently waiting at our table. I basically told him that as it stands he had no authority to remove me and he relented and said next time I would need shoes. I haven't went back since. Mostly because I don't like the food. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(175, 192, 227, 0.230469); -webkit-composition-frame-color: rgba(77, 128, 180, 0.230469); -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.296875);"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(175, 192, 227, 0.230469); -webkit-composition-frame-color: rgba(77, 128, 180, 0.230469); -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.296875);">The second instance was about a week ago. I was walking through the east side of Providence helping my roommate distribute some flyers to find a job. We went into a Pizzaria on Wickenden St. They quickly noticed I had no shoes and said I can't be in here, I told them "I'm sorry I must have missed the sign on the door." They quickly fired back that they didn't need a sign. Sensing the opportunity for some fun I cocked my head sideways in confusion. This took them back a little that the idea of anyone being barred from a store for no shoes was apparently so foreign to me. They then tried reasoning with me. They said "Well feet and food just don't go together." I guess they thought I wasn't quick enough to come back with a coherent response. I replied within an instant "I agree completely. That's why I don't eat off of the floor." There is a great degree of satisfaction outwitting the unintelligent. They told me it's a Rhode Island state law. I informed them that it is actually a very pervasive myth and theres no law saying I need shoes. I left shortly after mostly because we just needed to drop off flyers. </span><br />

In class a few people have been very interested and finally have started talking to me after seeing me for a few years. I guess they had to wait to see if I was some sort of maniac. Once they realized I won't bite them they have started to be more social. </span><br />

My hopes by putting up a new post are to both let you folks know how it's been going for me and to hopefully get some of that ad money to add to the tuition fund. You folks know college is expensive. Gotta keep the machine going. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Pulling out of an unfortunately deep depression, I have been trying to re invent myself into an all around better person. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I've also suffered a series of financial setbacks over the past year that have made my situation less advantageous. Instead of conforming to the foolishness of convention and getting a loan, I have instead decided to do what I like to call "Beasting out jobs like a Motherfucker." This might be referred to in polite society as "Getting as many jobs as I can handle." The current number is four. That might be set to increase if I don't get what I need from the previous four. In addition to these jobs, I am a taxi for friends, I run a business buying and selling printing presses, and I am constantly doing freelance work through craigslist. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">On top of all this, Google finally got their act together and managed to get my ad pin number to my site so I can hopefully get some additional revenue from this blog. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">With all that said and done, don't worry folks, I still refuse to wear shoes. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">All these jobs however cannot prevent me from enjoying the finer things in life, like climbing, or trudging through abandoned buildings. You know, fancy stuff. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As usual, I'll throw in a few pictures of what I've been up to recently. </span><br />

If you weren't there, you might not understand what this is. This is the roller component of the old Seekonk Railroad Bridge. I crawled into the innards of the roller to play in the tiny cavities and tunnels inside the components of the bridge. </div>

I have also been doing a lot of work taking pictures of my brother when he climbs, mostly because he cant climb and hold a camera at the same time and he is more photogenic. </div>

<br />
We already know my feelings on the matter, so for those of you that are new I will sum it up for you. <br />
<br />
I do not oppose the idea that children should have the choice to wear shoes if they so choose. I do believe they should come with warning labels, as any potentially hazardous product is required to have, but it is the dishonest and manipulative marketing technique that TOMS uses that is the most offensive and deplorable to me. It's Hard Without Shoes? False. I and all the other barefooters out there are living evidence that is false. The <b>only</b> thing hard about being without shoes is bigoted ignorant people that think bare feet are unhealthy or illegal. A belief organizations like TOMS foster in their flock.<br />
<br />
It is no secret that one of my main slogans is "It's Easy Without Shoes!" This is meant to be in direct opposition with the TOMS line. I periodically post little photos or videos here and there showing the things bare feet can do, well it's time to put them all together. It's time to FILL a blogpost with images and videos showing just how strong bare feet can be. There <b>will</b> be some extreme examples here.<br />

Well, I have been getting really into two different things, I've been getting more into my design work, and Urbex, which is subject of this particular post.<br />

Anyway. I have always loved going into abandoned places. You can see evidence of this periodically appearing on my blog. Lately I have loosely combined it with elements of Parkour and FreeRunning in order to really find new places I never would have been able to explore otherwise.<br />
<br />
During the entire course of this activity I am of course, barefoot, for safety you know?<br />
<br />
So without further delay, pictures of places I have found and explored completely barefoot. Again proving to the world, "It's easy without shoes!"<br />

There are thousands more pictures of the places I go, but I just figured I would give you a few highlights to give you an idea of what I have been doing lately. You may notice I have grown my hair out quite a bit, but I have recently had it trimmed to a more traditional (for me) look.<br />
<br />
In other news I went down to DC with my father and a friend of ours to visit the Vietnam wall. I was barefoot in our nations capital. Talked with secret service on several occasions and not once did they point out my feet. Much appreciated. Thanks guys and keep up the good work!<br />

I am so excited that snow finally came down! My Sophomore year has been far more active than last year which has lead to fewer posts.<br />
<br />
I see many of you have been asking about the letter situation. The math teacher was courteous enough to accept my argument and allow me barefoot in the classroom. He was the first and hopefully last teacher of a class I participate in to challenge me.<br />
<br />
The Gym issue remains unresolved. If and when the situation changes for better or worse I will keep you al l posted.<br />
<br />
I have been working on a myriad of side projects lately that have also been consuming a large portion of my time. I have started a small business on Ebay (<a href="http://myworld.ebay.com/thebarefootpress/?_trksid=p4340.l2559" target="_blank">The Barefoot Press</a>) buying and selling movable printing press type and various pieces from my studio (I am a graphics student and <a href="http://barefoot-designer.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">I frequently post some of the work that comes out of my studio here</a>). I have also been making a lot of junk art, I have been really trying to reduce my footprint (on the environment) by creating lighting systems using reflection and attempting to buy less and create more.<br />
<br />
This recent shift in attitude has lead to a tremendous increase in time spent in abandoned buildings and houses. I know how you folks like seeing pictures of me and the places my feet go so heres something that goes into my "its easy without shoes" campaign. A zero budget campaign composed of pictures of barefoot people and bare feet (which you are all welcome to submit into providencebarefooter@gmail.com). Eventually I am going to put them into a video spoofing the TOMS "its hard without shoes" slogan.<br />
<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">That said, I have a few things I would like to share</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">First, two nights ago I went to the gym with my roommate and a friend of his to the gym. I am exercising so why the hell would I even consider wearing shoes?</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I checked in, read the signs on the door and desk that had a very detailed list of requirements. Not among them was a requirement for shoes. No posted sign? No JWU policy? No law? No Problem!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">A few minutes into my workout one of the students working the desk came over and asked me where my shoes were. I told him I don't wear shoes and he told me that I need shoes. I told him I know that is not posted on the door or in the dress code, I looked. I also told him JWU policy is silent on the issue. He then looked puzzled, but respectful, and left. I continued with my workout, treadmills, leg workouts, arm "stuff" I am not a huge gym guy so I really don't know much about the machines. Ran a few miles on the treadmill at speed 8. Less than what I did back in high school when I ran every day but whatever.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I left with my friends, and thanked them with a really happy feeling that this was a simple in and out issue.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I forgot my ID in my hometown so I couldn't take the JWU bus. Instead I ran to class which felt glorious. I was in math class doing the work and the teacher was making his rounds to check our progress with the problems. As he passed me I told him I need to wear shoes next time. I replied with a simple "Why?" He told me it was a health hazard and I told him that was not true at all. I told him I had been doing it for two years here and I have had no problems (not entirely accurate but it sounds better). He said that I could have something on my feet and rub it on the rug. I told him most people wear shoes so it doesn't matter. He walked away and I thought I heard him mutter "You will have to too."</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">So I wrote up the following email. I haven't sent it yet but plan to today or tomorrow morning.</span><br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: white;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">"I am sorry you take issue with my lack of footwear, but I must inform you the university does not share your concern. The JWU handbook mentions no requirement for students to wear shoes in class, it was the first thing I checked my freshman year. You may also be interested to know that no state in the union has laws or regulations requiring citizens to wear shoes, partially because they don't care enough to set a rule like that, but mostly because it is unconstitutional.</span></span></blockquote><blockquote class="tr_bq"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: white; font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I am sure you know that JWU also has a nondiscrimination policy. Something that trying to enforce a non existent rule would violate. You called it a "health hazard." in actuality, statistical data suggests that you are more likely to suffer an injury when wearing shoes. Which sounds like the hazard? I do not wear shoes because doing so has permanently fixed my chronic back pain and boosted my immune system to the point I have not been sick in two years. I have been exercising my right to clothe myself as I please for two years at JWU and no teacher thus far has shown anything but hospitality and a cautious interest.</span></blockquote><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"><blockquote><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: white;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Since there are no laws, school policies, or valid reasons to wear shoes , I will not. It is regrettable you would prefer me to wear shoes, but police officers do not get to make laws, they only enforce them. So long story short, it is my right to not wear shoes if I wish. My rights will not be infringed upon. I am paying my own money out of pocket to be here and learn. I deserve the same treatment as any other student.</span></span></blockquote></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"><blockquote><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: white;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I hope this has cleared up any confusion and I look forward to learning whatever material you teach us in class.</span></span></blockquote></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"><blockquote><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: white;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Regards,</span></span></blockquote></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222;"><blockquote><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: white;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Hayward"</span></span></blockquote></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Fairly civil and appropriate I think. Thoughts?</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Now I checked my email this morning to find this:</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span><br />

</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">So I typed this up and plan to send it after dinner:</span><br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">"It is really unfortunate this is still an issue.

This is because for medical reasons I DO NOT wear shoes. I have not now for two years and that will NOT change. The Student Assistant told me that I needed shoes, I informed him that the policy WAS NOT listed on the door. There were several printouts on the door and desks. They mentioned in detail your dress code. It also mentioned what shoes we were not allowed to wear. It did not contain any policy stating I needed to wear shoes. Once I informed him of this I also let him know that I have read the student handbook and the only people required to wear shoes that I saw were hospitality and culinary employees as part of their uniform. I am a technology student. Once I informed him of this he politely left me to my exercise with my roommate. I had really hoped that this was a very simple non confrontational conversation. It seems I was wrong. I did not refuse to leave, I told him why I was not obligated to leave due to the policies published. If a policy is not publicly displayed for all to see, it carries NO legal weight and is thus unenforcible. If he then told me to leave again, and I stood up for my RIGHTS and refused, that would constitute refusal to leave.</span></blockquote><span style="font: normal normal normal 13px/normal 'Lucida Grande';"><blockquote><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">This next thing you cite, "The rules of our fitness center are for your safety." I will not sugarcoat this. This is absolutely INSULTING. HOW DARE YOU think that you even begin to be qualified to tell me my lifestyle is not safe? I walk around the city all day, attend class, run in the woods, and even explore abandoned buildings strewn with broken glass and other so called "hazards" completely and unapologetically barefoot. I think I am a hell of a lot more qualified than you to say your treadmills and bike machines pose absolutely zero threat and any thoughts otherwise are simply outdated and unfounded assumptions. In fact, the treadmill's rollers felt quite wonderful underfoot, like a massage. Do you know Mr. Fitness Director why many physical activities are done with very thin shoes or no shoes at all? It is because balance is greatly increased when not wearing shoes. The feet are also more flexible than shoes can ever be and the feet have over 200,000 nerve endings per foot that create BY FAR the most stable and SAFE exercise platform in existence.</span></span></blockquote></span><span style="font: normal normal normal 13px/normal 'Lucida Grande';"><blockquote><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Cleanliness and hygiene, yet another unfounded and weak defense to an indefensible argument. It is most common in this era to exercise in shoes (even though a few years ago that was not the case.) This means unless you have a group of students that run on their hands on the treadmills, there is no issue. This is of course irrelevant because people are expected to wipe down their machines... and of course the fact that sweat from feet is the same as sweat from anywhere else makes it a non issue. Fact of the matter is shoes are among our least hygienic clothing items. They form the ideal incubator for bacteria and fungi. Whereas bare feet provide little place for such pests to hide. It is this fact that illustrates why people do not get athletes hand or arm. The shoe seals in the foot not allowing it to function properly and it marinates in perspiration. Hows that for hygienic? Do you like marinating in up to 1pt of sweat per day? I hold myself to a higher hygienic standard than that... It is the reason that I and all people who choose to live barefoot NEVER get athletes foot or any form of fungus. The bare foot is simply too inhospitable of a place for bacteria to flourish. So now you've learned shoes are unhygienic and are the proven cause of a myriad of bacterial/fungal problems its time to go to the next lesson.</span></span></blockquote></span><span style="font: normal normal normal 13px/normal 'Lucida Grande';"><blockquote><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Liability. If this were not so laughable it would be just pathetic. Studies show that injury rates are dramatically lower when barefoot. This has to do with previously mentioned reasons of balance and nerve feedback. It also has to do with the biomechanically inefficient and destructive gait caused by shoes. The collision forces caused by the unnatural shod running form cause both long term and short term damage. Runners in the western world are plagued by injures that sadly have been deemed part of the sport. This is preposterous. Many western barefoot runners that were plagued by injury when they wore shoes enjoyed injury free running for years when they removed their shoes. The Tarahumara are an indigenous tribe in Mexico run for intervals over 24 hours at a time more often than not completely barefoot. They became the subject of one of the first books that brought barefoot life into the mainstream "Born to Run" by Christopher McDougal. </span></span></blockquote></span><br />

I have dealt with people like you before and more often than not, they assume there is a policy when none exists. I had a similar issue at Walmart and even when I proved corporate made no policy against it, there was no sign on the door, and no law requiring me to wear shoes, they still insisted I leave. This is a little thing the law calls DISCRIMINATION. Something JWU has a policy against.

<br />
Anyway, I have been busy lately with the hustle of the startup of the academic year. As usual I spend my time always barefoot. I was on the first day confronted by a janitor who told me I forgot my shoes, playfully of course, when I told him I didn't wear shoes he seemed a little shocked. I wonder why. When going into one of the buildings a kid walking behind me said dude you forgot your shoes, to which I responded, "No, I don't wear shoes."<br />
<br />
The only really unpleasant encounter was with some short elderly professor entering the same building. Well, I was entering, she was exiting. She looked down at me and said "Do you know you don't have shoes on?" I responded with a somewhat annoyed "Yes, I don't wear shoes" She said "You cant go into a building without shoes." I of course told her "Yes I can, JWU makes no policy against it, look in the book." guess what comes next? "It's a Health Code!" I have such a hard time holding my cool when people say this to me. "THATS NOT TRUE! LOOK IT UP!" I shouted. She in disbelief shouted back "Yes it is." I at this point had been walking in and she out, so I replied with a "YOURE WRONG, LOOK IT UP!" and walked away. <br />
<br />
People like this really get to me. It is not her fault for being clueless. It really isn't. Most people think it is a Health Code. But every day I inform at least one person that it isn't, and that one at a time spread will hopefully achieve the slogan that adorns some of my cards: "BRING DOWN THE MYTH!"<br />
<br />
Yesterday when spending time with my disabled Vietnam veteran friend, he asked me to get him an iced coffee at Duncan Donuts, I of course obliged. When I walked into the very narrow establishment, I passed several people staring in disgust/astonishment. I got to the counter, ordered what I needed to order as a very loud woman comes out of the back out of uniform (Off for the day I assume) and stands behind me for a few seconds, and yells "No shirt, No shoes, NO SERVICE!" I told her you have no sign on the door, she replied with a "NO!" which really didn't make much sense...? The woman behind the counter said "Oh you have no shoes on?" "To which I responded "Yeah, I never wear shoes, for my back." At that point another woman from behind the counter turned around and said "Are you that boy from last year with the skateboard?" I knew that I was the person she was referring to, I informed her that it was me last year, and she said to the louder woman "Yeah he never wears shoes even in the winter." the loud woman asked me the typical am I afraid of foot fungus, or athletes foot, I asked her if she knew how fungus worked. I explained how shoes form an incubator, and she cut me off halfway through saying she only made it to 11th grade. I didn't understand what she said the first time, I started explaining some simple physics, and she said "I DONT KNOW, I only made it to the 11th grade!" The woman behind the counter asked how I didn't get cold. I told her we are designed to walk barefoot, at that point one of the people behind the counter said "Well I'm designed to walk in these *click click click* high heels." I responded "No you're not, do you have any idea how much damage those cause your feet? She said "Yeah yeah I know." I paid for the coffee, walked out, and that has been my year so far in the barefoot related category.<br />
<br />
Oh! one more thing, I found very interesting. My roommate, both are Chinese, one them asked me "Why don't you use shoes." and from then on said "You don't use shoes" or "He doesn't use shoes." I found this very interesting that she always said "use shoes" not "wear shoes." Almost as if the shoes were something like a drug. What do you shoe users out there think? Drug? Shoes do share a lot of the characteristics as well as tendencies to cause addiction/dependence.<br />

<br />
Why is it that someone who went to medical school for years, and learned about scientific method and thinking, upon leaving said institution, think that he can learn nothing new?<br />
<br />
Why would someone, a scholar, act as if the world and our understanding of it is static and does not evolve continuously?<br />
<br />
Do these questions seem like they don't at all describe the actions of a scholar, a doctor?<br />
<br />
To me these are just the arrogant insecure defense mechanisms of the normal man, as well educated as he may be, is exhibiting the same silly tendencies as just another person on the street.<br />
<br />
What makes my information any less valid than his opinions? There was once a time, as cliche as this reference is, we thought the world was flat. People who believed that was not so were ridiculed. Those people blinded by their deeply engrained beliefs were not helping anyone by trying to uphold old, and unsubstantiated beliefs.<br />
<br />
Back to the point I am sure you all know I am trying to make by this series of rhetorical questions.What, and before I ask this, separate yourself from your preconceptions and everything you have been told. Use your own mind.<br />
<br />
What sense does it make that something that alters a natural function, causes measurable, quantifiable, damage to the body, be so widely accepted and be so popular among the entire population, and even endorsed by healthcare "experts?"<br />
<br />
Why are those who have never even tried this lifestyle those who are often deemed as the most credible?<br />
Why is it that people that have lived this lifestyle often report having never been so happy and healthy.<br />
Why is it that people who live free of footwear report a shockingly lower amount of injuries and health problems?<br />
Why is it that the only people who say we need shoes are those who enslave themselves to those very shoes?<br />
Why is it that people who move in and use their feet in a natural way, have personally experienced the benefits both short term and long term, are seen as the radicals in society?<br />
Why is it that we are the ones that need to go out of our way to explain ourselves?<br />
<br />
I believe that it is the ones who want us to stomp around in clunky foot bricks that should have to prove themselves to us. I believe it is they who are the radicals, who want to change something that is so natural and intuitively right.<br />
<br />
I can give you reasons all day long why not to wear shoes.<br />
If you want me to wear shoes you better be able to come up with some reasons for it, because it is me, it is us, barefooters, who are using our feet as they were designed to be used. If you want someone to divert from what is natural you better be able to support your point of view. You also need to understand that what you feel is not what we feel when we walk barefoot.<br />
<br />
Ever broke an arm, leg, or other bone? Ever notice how after the cast is removed the muscles on the limb have atrophied and you must rebuild its strength? What is the shoe but a silly flashy foot cast. It will, and does weaken the foot, creating a dependency on shoes.<br />
<br />
Perhaps, and this is something I dearly hope is not true, perhaps, those people who do all they can to counter this revolution in health and general wellbeing do so because they stand to lose money on a healthy populace. Who needs a podiatrist if everyone has healthy feet?<br />
<br />
I will leave you with that.<br />
Food for thought.<br />
Use your own mind, and explore your thoughts on this matter.<br />
I encourage you to leave any thoughts you have below.<br />
I look forward to your feedback.<br />

Why did they go though the effort to do this? Also...why in improper English? It seems so strange to me. Either way, "Your feet are belong to us." is really creepy and a very sinister thing for a company to say and "Your feet are belong to u." defeats the purpose of having shoes. Its a little creepy either way in my opinion. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Being barefoot in the city felt absolutely awesome. I missed the feeling and the diverse landscapes. Sadly, I went to the mall, who's code of conduct mind you has no reference to a requirement for footwear. Sadly though the security officers feel the need to exercise their power and force me to wear shoes in what I can only categorize as ignorance and intolerance. The mall owners don't feel a need to post a requirement for shoes one the door but these petty little security people still insist there is a rule. <br />
<br />
As we know there are no laws or regulations put out by the federal or state governments requiring footwear in any establishment or even while driving. This old misconception is getting rather infuriating. <br />
<br />
Anyway I am at my favorite store, the Apple store. One of a few places I can talk to out of the box people in this mall. Having a lot of fun here typing away and feeling the awesome energy of this place. <br />
<br />
Anyway, I am sporting my shirt with a plain block of text stating:<br />

There are a few more online aswell. Personally I found them really offensive. Just like a commercial that came out from foot locker a few months ago that claimed you needed shoes to have game. From the beginning of time it claimed we needed shoes to have game. Ridiculous!<br />
<br />
This latest commercial campaign has a motto to it. The motto is "Like barefoot, only better."<br />
<br />

Sensing we might have some trouble I brought in my health code letter. We got by the greeter who happily greeted us then looked at us a little confused but didn't comment.<br />
<br />
We got over to the fishing section with no issues. We were then confronted by some raspy voiced man who said we need shoes, we spent five or so minutes in a fairly civil debate over it. He didn't seem like he was about to kick us out but he was very reluctant about us not having shoes.<br />
<br />
Eventually a guy came over and stuck up for us. He said you really should have a sign on the door if you want these people coming in with shoes on. The employee said that he had had incidents like this before many times and the customer shrewdly pointed out then if this has been an issue why have signs not been put up? He was countering this employee at every turn with arguments sticking up for us. I was really touched to see someone I didn't even know sticking up for me.<br />
<br />
An apparently higher up lady passed by and the employee asked for her opinion on that. She quickly responded with the obvious we cant do it. I countered saying there is no sign on the door. She ofcourse brought up the old Department of Health Law. I said thats actually not true and pulled out the letter. She asked me if I just carry that around to prove it to people. I told her that I need to be prepared for any discrimination I might face.<br />
<br />
She brought up the liability thing. I said if corporate thought it was an issue they would have a policy and have a sign.<br />
<br />
Now here is going to be a little break in my post. I recorded this entire conversation so I will have a more detailed account of this as soon as I can.<br />
<br />
She called over a manager who reaffirmed what she said. My brother and I both stated our cases. She said she transferred over from another Walmart and she worked at a beach store and it wouldn't be a problem if I was over there. I asked her whats the difference. She kept saying it was a State of Rhode Island law which is not true. Eventually we wore her down to the point where she said finish your shopping then I will ask you to leave. She also said she would make sure there are signs put up.<br />
<br />
We weren't about to cause any more trouble than we already had.<br />
<br />
We were wandering out way out and eventually got to the cashiers line.<br />
<br />
Sadly I had just turned off my recorder when a very large man came up to us and greeted us and told us in fairly harsh language saying how we would be lead out of the store if we ever came in here again barefoot. He said he saw the law and that Walmart isn't a public building and he can ask us to leave. I told him that we will be taking our future business to a place that doesn't discriminate against any of their customers. He said it was my right as an American to do that and if he ever saw us in here barefoot he would immediately lead us out.<br />
<br />
Frankly, his language tempts me to more action. If I were to be "asked to leave" or "lead out" what is stopping me from just ignoring them and going back to my shopping? If they touch me I can sue them right? Also if they call the Police hopefully I could persuade them to the fact I am in violation of no law, and there is no policy on the door and therefore they have no right to remove me without committing discrimination.<br />
<br />
What do you think my friends?<br />
<br />
Also to anyone who is in possession of a letter or documentation of Walmart's policies please forward them to me I would very much appreciate it.<br />

This is a flyer I am planning to make in response to a TOMS documentary shown at my school (which I was unable to attend) So, if TOMS thinks they can spread their propaganda without anyone challenging them...They're wrong.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhw2JA9R3N8NCGlWV8kO8n8j4060PO4W1lLGjS9ahdNH4BOCVvX55t-90bnN3ODxPFiGrWmFCRPCudUC8ye4zdIdC3dTv30c7tOwTT34i5rMIaS7PtzefXdrRHh5Gr5qcGum2BNCNHKR_uX/s1600/TOMS.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="306" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhw2JA9R3N8NCGlWV8kO8n8j4060PO4W1lLGjS9ahdNH4BOCVvX55t-90bnN3ODxPFiGrWmFCRPCudUC8ye4zdIdC3dTv30c7tOwTT34i5rMIaS7PtzefXdrRHh5Gr5qcGum2BNCNHKR_uX/s400/TOMS.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">So yes. Please comment with your thoughts on the general design and suggestions for improvement. I am still a first year student so I am by no means a professional. So if anyone has any thoughts on making this more effective, or any sort of criticism on it I would appreciate it. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I am sure that there are some people reading this that are very supportive of TOMS and this may seem offensive and ridiculous. Facts are facts and TOMS does much more harm than good. If you are outraged by this...no one is going to stop you from commenting, your comments will not be deleted. I just urge you to actually consider facts and reason before you blindly spew what TOMS tells you. Thanks!</div><br />

After a while people started to realize that there may be some negative effects to smoking. In recent decades laws have been passed that made it mandatory to print a warning on cigarette boxes so people would be made aware of the dangers of smoking. This simple measure made users aware of the risks before making a purchase. If they still chose to purchase the cigarettes they were at least made aware of negative effects it may have. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvlYgXPdXUKCsjVJmG394MOd_5t5APAWXfd5sulfEtq4J6PSeHe4vXD5XEeYub2W1v4tOSOUFEBveDtObyncF81Qm6IdbxojLbr_ljDeNzuWRlktrK4P-U3X5891GfW87CGIr4KIa6nKo_/s1600/surgeon-general-warning.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="65" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvlYgXPdXUKCsjVJmG394MOd_5t5APAWXfd5sulfEtq4J6PSeHe4vXD5XEeYub2W1v4tOSOUFEBveDtObyncF81Qm6IdbxojLbr_ljDeNzuWRlktrK4P-U3X5891GfW87CGIr4KIa6nKo_/s320/surgeon-general-warning.gif" width="320" /></a></div><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">This warning and ones like it can now be found on most tobacco products to prevent occurrances like in the picture below. Today, I think we can all agree, we do not want this to happen. </div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifmPc40biiCvxL62rnkICua9IBbtahslAn3XQlqS6Adh1zPk95UY9AnkwONsCQIR39nWldi_OEQaSloXwXyJrIXfJWeWdpz5p8U6R0rgtQTwLR1Sn0I5ZU5p__TCfsHM6yg7gqymOALI3q/s1600/smoking.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifmPc40biiCvxL62rnkICua9IBbtahslAn3XQlqS6Adh1zPk95UY9AnkwONsCQIR39nWldi_OEQaSloXwXyJrIXfJWeWdpz5p8U6R0rgtQTwLR1Sn0I5ZU5p__TCfsHM6yg7gqymOALI3q/s320/smoking.jpg" width="243" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Because smoking can lead to lungs like those on the lower right. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzAnVL8AkKjNoL10-jFNrQZdGRNmydKmUbOTDcH6C8u_-zTzKaGW4pPncNlAsAk1Yclzn4Bjbs-s8ls6yYbCoydbk6sNAg5vKxhZe7P0Is7jsusZFtGL0pPpRBh2T4wUbGozj18z_c4ulV/s1600/11257767.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="153" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzAnVL8AkKjNoL10-jFNrQZdGRNmydKmUbOTDcH6C8u_-zTzKaGW4pPncNlAsAk1Yclzn4Bjbs-s8ls6yYbCoydbk6sNAg5vKxhZe7P0Is7jsusZFtGL0pPpRBh2T4wUbGozj18z_c4ulV/s320/11257767.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">To the barefooters reading this, you all know where this tired old comparison is going. Today, for the most part, shoes are considered helpful, positive things without negative effects on health. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Today we see kids like this. Most people see nothing at all wrong with this picture. I however see developing children being set up for a life of problems.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXGJTk7Nd-SXOjcCaOfnk9BXtQJk0Elhp5dT-GCXk-Kvn-B0F9SR8y1-hdm8FlkLD8ZV1ErkoiWWREZ_LOpMS23s6Op3GHm-AIx86blJI8hRCR6QT3sbZBiDKwbcjX8kgLZyFCqX4snUWf/s1600/167D5E7F.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="211" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXGJTk7Nd-SXOjcCaOfnk9BXtQJk0Elhp5dT-GCXk-Kvn-B0F9SR8y1-hdm8FlkLD8ZV1ErkoiWWREZ_LOpMS23s6Op3GHm-AIx86blJI8hRCR6QT3sbZBiDKwbcjX8kgLZyFCqX4snUWf/s320/167D5E7F.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Years of wearing shoes can give you feet like the ones pictured below...Yet there are no warnings on the boxes. I am sure I am not the only person out there that feels strongly that shoes should have warning labels on the boxes. Then at least consumers can be informed of the risks they take by buying shoes. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><br />

As if I don't already with every post. Two schools of thought out there on this subject.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">And that subject is </div><div style="text-align: center;">EVOLUTION vs. CREATIONISM. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">Of course, I have to link this back to my barefooting, the topic of this blog. So, some people will say "Millions of years of evolution" others say "Made in God's image." </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">So, either this happened or that happened, either could be true, but I think we can both agree...</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div Ystyle="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">THIS didn't happen. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8x1MRA0Tb8q3bWsXyGE8SYmDt0O9Pr78h5bXkYaCKDXpBWYicjz6yWEBLxdYW5ebe6mLShbyLnuE_H8Ln9jDO0rNI7xzvubHnBcoD5GGJoJtnwBTdi4LjrwkAiDOmWl6m0nfJkr69ZrdF/s1600/photo+2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="195" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8x1MRA0Tb8q3bWsXyGE8SYmDt0O9Pr78h5bXkYaCKDXpBWYicjz6yWEBLxdYW5ebe6mLShbyLnuE_H8Ln9jDO0rNI7xzvubHnBcoD5GGJoJtnwBTdi4LjrwkAiDOmWl6m0nfJkr69ZrdF/s320/photo+2.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">My apologies for the roughness of my sketches, but I think they get the point across. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Whether we spent millions of years developing to perfection, or made out of clay in the image of some divine being, the result is the same. In both cases we weren't made in shoes. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">We were born with the perfect platform with which to move. What makes us as a species so arrogant to think that we can create something superior? The result of altering the way we were built to function, ailments over the entire body exploding in the western world. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Now doesn't that seem absurd that we strap our feet in every day to these gait altering foot coffins? </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">It certainly seems absurd to me, this is among the many reasons why I go barefoot. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
