      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.

      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.

        I typically hand grown adults wearing crocs a card with the suicide hotline number on it because it clearly a desperate cry for help.
