definitely the latter, but not in bed 'cause i'm also one of those "my body must be a specific temperature to be comfortable and my feet being bare helps dictate this" neurodivergents.

    Exactly. How am I supposed to stick out one foot from the blanket when I'm too hot if that foot already has its own dedicated blanket on it?

    Also, sleeping bags are the work of the devil.

    I’m both. I hate socks, but I also hate the feeling of being bare feet. Plus in the winter months I hate having cold feet.

    I didn't know anyone didn't care about the microscopic floor crumbs. Actually the worst is living with someone who doesn't care macroscopic floor crumbs.

    second option, but i live in a tropical country so the thought having my feet covered by thick fabric all the time in the summer heat is unbearable. so i wear flip-flops instead

    Both. Switches every hour. Sometimes they overlap :(

    The former but weather too cold to go barefoot full-time even in the house.

    I am living the good life because i found the solution: Socks that are not saussage shaped, but shaped like a actual human foot. No more toes getting pulled into an uncomfortable lump. No cold feet either. (this is a winter only problem. why would anyone wear socks in summer?)

    you can get them here: plus12socks (not only for children)

    I've recently hopped on the barefoot shoe train and I think I'm gonna get some of these socks to go with them.

    Thank you for commenting, these are way more aesthetically pleasing than those weird socks with the individual toe sleeves.

    Robot vacuum daily helps lots. Lots of runner rugs that are machine washable helps too, floor bits get wiped off on rugs, floor and rugs get vacuumed daily, rugs get washed monthly, floor gets big vacuum-ed and mopped while rugs wash. Socks still stay on after shoes come off. Never socks without shoes though. No shoes day is no socks day. Also, it doesn't matter if the socks were literally on my feet for 30 seconds, if the socks come off they do not go back on. They are now dirty and go straight in the basket. Same with all clothing really. I have no idea how people wear pants or bras two days in a row let alone the "I never wash this article of clothing ever" crowd. Shudder what the fuck do you mean you don't wash something that you touch?! It's literally there to block dirt and absorb sweat, the fuck Is wrong with you sick fucks?!

    Both and either cause my feet are dead to me and get to live their own lives

    Socks half off so it just covers the front half of my foot.

    I really don't care, which seems to piss everyone off. If I need to run outside to grab the mail or something, I just do it. It doesn't matter if I'm barefoot in the snow, or wearing socks in the rain, it all warms up and dries out eventually. Shoes are a pain, though, and I only wear them if I'm actually leaving to go somewhere.

    Both. Socks are repressive hell but a crumby floor is worse.

    Happy medium is carpet indoors, and sandals outdoors. Alas, it is winter and the people around me think LVP was an upgrade from lush carpet 😭

    You don't wear socks because you hate the feel of the fabric.

    I don't wear socks because I can grip and pick things up with my monkey toes.

    We are not the same.

    Socks are tryanny for my feet so I guess the first one for me

    I am a hobbit. I would never wear shoes if that was an option.

  • source
  • [–] 3 points 9 months ago

    Shoes and socks if and only if I'm outside for longer than a trip to the mailbox and if my toes so much as notice the corners of the socks, I drop everything and yank them off as quickly as I can untie a double knot, even if that leaves me barefoot in the dirt.

    I flip-flop

  • source
  • [–] 3 points 9 months ago

    The first one. Always sandals and crocks.

    The only time I wear socks is when it gets below freezing temps and the cold floor feeling overwelms the foot suffocation feeling.

    The first one. Socks are porous and will attract and trap the filth against your skin.

    Temperature dependant.

  • source
  • [–] 2 points 9 months ago

    I don't like any exposed skin in temperatures below 23 °C.

    I'll wear sockless sandals or espadrilles when the temperature is over 28° C.

    No socks at all times.
    If I am sleeping and it's cold, blanket covers it all except for the feet.

    Socks. And if I ever feel a single crumb through them I have to vacuum the entire house.

    Not necessarily socks but something always on my feet except when I sleep.

    Socks in winter because my body temperature regulation sucks, but they have to have good soft seams and be breathable. But no socks any other time. In fact I'd rather not wear any shoes or socks at any time if there wasn't broken glass, nails, hot asphalt, and such to deal with.

    Socks at all times except the shower

  • The first one, 100%. The only non-awesome thing about autumn is the fact that I have to start wearing socks again. :(

    I like to know the floor dirt is there so I can scrub it off and know when its time to vaccume. No socks so I can feel my enemies presence and know when to act!

    Socks and shoes actually do nothing from stopping me feeling the microscopic floor crumbs. 😬

    Both? Slippers.

  • source
  • [–] 1 point 9 months ago

    I am 'no socks' except when the temperature dips into negatives, because I have these sweet slipper socks that make it possible for me to stay warm without turning the heater on.

    My husband is the first and I’m at the ‘I learned to darn socks specifically to avoid that feeling’ level for the second. His ways disturb and frighten me.

    I'm the third: I can't stop myself from picking at my socks and they inevitably get holes in them from that so I just don't wear socks.

    Socks and shoes because I'm a "Socks must be worn with shoes or I'll die" ND but also a "nothing can ever touch my feet or I'll explode" ND

    I don’t wear socks or shoes unless absolutely necessary. Sandals are fine, but if I can opt to not wear them, I do.

    If I wear socks they are always knee socks. I can’t stand those little ankle high deals that leave a breeze up your pants leg.
