Maybe when you are a little kid, and you have soft feet, or if you are a domesticated adult human. If you still have soft feet now as an adult, then it really says something about your lifestyle. My feet are tough, like leathery soles forged through experience. The only thing I try to avoid these days are weeds, because fuck, pulling those little prick out can be hard.

I realize that I am being a little silly with all this, but I still support my statements. If you have to put shoes on to do anything at a normal pace, you are domesticated. It isn't necessarily bad. I love domesticated dogs, they are great and I work with them for a living, but it is very telling when a dog will only walk with a leash on. Humans who require shoes for all tasks, for some reason, remind me of those types of dogs.

Have you ever gone barefoot in the woods? It's like taking a nature piss. The more you do it, the easier it becomes.

Maybe I just like mud squishing between my toes a little too much.
