    im in highschool and i alternate between three choices of footware... flip flops, skate shoes, and bare feet. i love barfooting but my feet arnt tought enough yet to withstand barefooting all the time, not black footed yet.
    anyway i love the freedom from one my object im bound to, weather its shoes or a TV, it feels good to get one more thing off my back

    Screw the negative attention. After the first two weeks of classes, people were just used to the fact that I never have anything on my feet and they didn't even look twice at my bare feet anymore.

    I don't wear shoes! :D
    I carry a pair of flops in my school tote though :)
    In college I can get away with this alway, in my public school years, it wasn't allowed

    How do you avoid getting foot fungus?
    I teach gymnastics at the Y and walk around barefoot on mats that are only cleaned once a year, and all around the Y... the locker rooms are pretty gross... and I have nasty feet. (I'll spare you and not go into details.) Actually, it's only one foot I have the problems with, which is wierd, but it's still pretty gross.

    You must have worked up some kind of immunity.
    Did you have problems with your feet when you first started doing it?

    You have more of a chance to get a foot fungus from shoes than from going barefoot... as long as you wash your feet... but that's just common sense.

    I go barefoot at school during the summer, spring, and fall... until it gets cold. I just do well with the cold... and am not really too religious about the barefoot thing. I just like the freedom.

    I wish I could go barefoot everywhere, I find shoes so uncomfortable. Unfortunately most places around me require shoes and it would cause a hassle in my everyday life. I don't know whether or not my school has shoe policies but the chances are they do. Also I got pulled over once for a routine check and got a ticket for "reckless/unsafe driving" because I was barefoot. Such crap anyway yeah impractical in the city but maybe someday.

    I wish i coulda gone barefoot everyday. That is really crazy that you have done it that long. My schools from elementary, middle, and high, all wouldnt allow going barefoot.
    Now i dont think id get the best reaction if i went barefoot at college.. haha
