    Why are lads too embarrassed to be seen in their bare feet? Do many lads wear their socks in bed?

    Because feet are stupid looking.

    I can only speak for myself when I say I have hobbit feet.

    I wear a sock in bed most nights, it's not on my foot though.

    News to me. Perhaps the men you know are weird

    I don't care who is looking at my feet. I actually work part time as a foot model for Littlewoods catalogues in the flip flop and sandal section.

    Couldn't wear socks in bed either, I'm the sort, always need my feet out from under the blankets for a bit of air.

    Embarrassed? I'd never buy footwear again if i the Mrs would let me.

    I don't know what circles you move in but your generalisation is way wide of the mark. I don't know any man who wears socks in bed and I go about in my bare feet, indoors and out, as often as I can?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,691 ✭✭✭Lia_lia


    I can't imagine wearing socks in bed, wouldn't be able to sleep with socks on!

    Same as me. As soon as I'm home, shoes and socks off. My feet like fresh air.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,180 ✭✭✭Mena


    I hardly ever wear shoes. Hate the things. My toe jam is out there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 637 ✭✭✭Rabbo


    Summertime is the worst. I don't like the look of my bare feet in sandals so I tend to wear socks with them


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,409 ✭✭✭Nomis21


    I went to Amsterdam with a girl and we went into to a sex shop to watch a porno and decided to have sex in the booth. She was really surprised that I took my socks off before we had sex.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 126 ✭✭Moat_Cailin


    I have diseased feet. Socks stay on 24/7 showering included !!

    I put my money on him having manky toe nail fungus.

    I hope the floor wasn't too slippy! You could have an accident!

    And socks in bed? no no no..... too warm by far..

    What lads do you know? :confused:

    The ones I know wear hardly nothing to bed. Their jocks are their pyjamas.

    We're not, in general. I suggest there may be some web feeted men in your life.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,632 ✭✭✭Aint Eazy Being Cheezy


    Wearing socks to bed just sweats your feet.

    I'll blatantly ignore your question and ask you why are women afraid to walk around topless. They're just a bigger version of a mans chest

    That's one thing that creeps me out, if a man is naked except for his socks. Even when it's in porn, I can't concentrate on the issues at hand because I keep wanting to remove his socks. It's gross.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,681 ✭✭✭✭P_1


    Mainly for me its because you tend to lose heat through your extremities and seeing as your feet tend to be in contact with the ground an awful lot it seems logical to have a bit of insulation


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,059 ✭✭✭WilyCoyote


    I wear socks just to cover my cloven hooves. Right up to my knees and tied a bit of string:o

    Keep your feet in the bed.

    Funny enough, I am completely opposite. I cant sleep with no socks on. something in my head wired stupidly.

    Though I dont care about showing my feet in public. Never had issue with that.

    Yeah but you can't beat the cosy feeling of toasty feet when in the leaba


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,660 ✭✭✭Blitzkrieger


    I've shared rooms with many *men over the years and the only time I've seen someone wear socks to bed is when they're so drunk they pass out fully dressed.

    *Things no straight man should say.... [\i]


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,507 ✭✭✭Buona Fortuna


    I have no embarrassment over my feet.

    Years ago in our little smoking club one woman said "Show us your feet". So I did, I just couldn't see the big deal. Another (oldish) woman there said "I can't believe you just did that".

    I could never see the big deal though typing it now, it does sound kind of sexual.

    Anyway elder woman went back to work so I said to the two younger women "Well". They said "well we're wearing sandals ain't we?" "No but fairs, fair."

    Smoke break ended with a - trust me to lower the tone down to the gutter :(

    There's totally such a thing a daytime pyjamas though. You don't actually wear them to bed that often, just put them on when you want to lounge about the house. I dunno if men have them though. My flatmate mostly uses fatpants and old t-shirts anyway.

    Well, that escalated quickly...

    I've never heard of any man being embarrassed about their feet so I don't have a clue where you're getting that from, OP.
