I'm Dr Nick and for a whole year back in 2007 I decided to go barefoot. Since then I've returned to a more shod existence, but I'm still a barefoot evangalist.

Flip Flops
Can anyone tell me why it is that men with out shoes on is weird and strange but men with flip flops on is quite acceptable? It just looks girly, get them off and take the ground like a man.
Nick...I think I know where you are coming from...I kinda second guess that flip-floppers would really like to be barefoot...it's only a thin piece of plastic between sole and world and we know how good that feels! I think that I get more "annoyed" with reactions to bare feet and think that we should all be able to wear what we want on them. Flips are better that the encased feet I see every day in London though...people seem awkward about showing them to anyone, maybe? Oh and by the way, barefoot rural walking is great and no big deal and not difficult...so keep sampling!
