I think gen alpha has become increasingly aware of foot fetishes so they avoid showing their feet. I have a 15 year old and she never wears open toe shoes in public.
would have to start with socks that are split between the big toe and the index? toe, like a ninja, for starters… but even then still not comfortable or safe. might as well wear crocs or slippers.
Gen alpha is trying to get everyone to wear socks with sandals
As a millennial, it will always be a no. It will forever have a Middle Aged Maths Teacher on Holiday vibe to it for me.
Meh, middle aged math’s teacher sounding like a solid reliable job right now. Nothing to shy from.
Also, I’ve put on some Birkenstocks with wool socks before. I feel no shame for it. It’s comfy.
Definitely not gatekeeping other folks wearing them, I just couldn’t without my grade 9 maths teacher popping into my head.
No worries, I was just playing along. :P But I have embraced the unfashionableness.

I very much agree that it’s related to the recent extreme sexualization of feet
I don’t get it… Feet are gross.
For some that is also an extra fetish on top
Nah, they’re just there
well gen alpha are babies, 15 year olds are gen z
but also yeah society is getting more puritan and it’s bad
Well that explains why Quentin wants to retire after his next film.

I typically hand grown adults wearing crocs a card with the suicide hotline number on it because it clearly a desperate cry for help.
I think most sandals don’t have a divider between the big toe and the rest. I think of sandals as any casual, open-toed shoes.
