Do My Feet Smell?

<-By the way, these are not my feet and I also retrieve all the pictures I blog about via photobucket :] ->

So, while I attempt to think about what I should write today, I think about why my feet smell.

First off, let me say that I wash my feet and body every single day, and very well too.

My feet smell. I know for a fact my feel smell because I've been on my feet all day and wear the same sneakers day by day due to work & school [and they're very comfortable woman's Nike's!] and also because of some "curse" my father's side of the family has. But we also have the "curse" of the silent but deadly but hey, I'm not discussing that right now.

The issue of smelly feet is, in my opinion, huge. In some cultures [and in some households that like cleanliness], it is preferred for one to leave their shoes at the doorway before they enter the household. But what if they're insecure because they're feet smell? Do they just take off their shoes anyway then spray perfume on them or do they just not enter the household? I personally had this dilemma once and decided not to go in. My boyfriend at the time protested but understood since we were only visiting for a short period of time. It's an embarrassment and it stabs at your self esteem.

Then there's also the issue of taking off your shoes in someone's home that you're comfortable with. I personally do not like bras, pants, or shoes, but I need to wear them. Most opportunities I get, I take off my shoes if that person is comfortable with me doing so in their household.

Incident: I took off my shoes and everyone gave me the face. You might know the face. It's the face that people give when someone threw a large fart in the middle of a room. It's the face you give when you smell someone's vomit. It's that face you give when you smell poo. Nevertheless, the moment I took off my sneaker, everyone in that room gave me the face, all four of them and a baby. I honestly don't understand why they smelled so bad that day, but they did. My ex boyfriend at the time [whom I hung out with] kept spilling comments on how bad they smelled like corn chips. It was disgusting, but I tried putting perfume and covering the smell, but that didn't work. Persistently he made fun of me for about half an hour to an hour until I finally had the courage to go to the restroom and wash them. My friend [not the boyfriend] kept telling the ex to shut up because it was making me feel bad, but he didn't.
Shows what kind of 'boy' I went out with.

But anyway, the point of this blog is to kind of ask why people criticize others bodily odor in such a demeaning manner. I understand you want to make fun of the persons odor, but can one keep their mouth shut until the person leaves so they don't feel like complete shit?
