Alright, I know this is going to sound like a weird question, but I was standing in the shower sudsing myself up when I realized-- I hardly ever wash my feet. The rest of my body gets a good scrub down, but my feet are usually just left alone. So, I was curious.. do you wash your feet? Am I just a weird, dirty-footed person?
Do you wash your feet?

I actually SCRUB my feet every time I bathe...I like them to be super soft and smooth so they have their own scrub that I use on them once or twice a day. That should count as washing though!

I wash my feet when I shower. This will sound gross, but usually I can feel a layer of dead skin slough off when I use my hands and rub them.
08/13/2010
I know it may seem weird but I think of it like this, my feet are soaking in soapy water for 5 to 10 minutes, isn't that enough?
Now after a shower I will use a knife to scrape the dead skin off, so that works right?

I don't necessarily scrub my feet as thoroughly as most, because as Dwtim said, they are sitting in soapy water for 5-10 (or more like 10-15 for me) minutes, but I do at least wipe them off with a soapy rag while in the shower. I just don't scrub them too much.

I actually have okay feet. They're soft, & don't really peel too much or get dry. The only thing I dislike about my feet is I have calluses on the side of each foot, next to my baby toe. I guess I must walk on the outside of my feet? Lol!

This is funny because I asked my husband this exact same question just the other day! I asked him if he washes his feet or just assumes that all the soapy water that slides off your body is enough of a washing!
08/13/2010
LOL! Funny poll.
08/13/2010
I'll sometimes give them a scrubdown in the shower with the loofah to try and get some of the extra skin off, but otherwise I don't pay much attention to making sure my feet are any more clean than the rest of me. I shower often enough.
Don't worry, you're not alone!

I scrub mine like a fiend but that's cuz I run around barefoot 99.99999999999% of the time and they are always filthy! I even wash them before I get in the bath so they're not soaking in the water with me, all dirty.

My boyfriend has a foot fetish, which he's passed on to me in a sense. A lot of days I actually wash my feet outside of the shower (aka in the sink, lol) if I took one earlier and wore sandals afterwards, that way I can ensure my toes get sucked. If they're dirty, it's a no-go. My boyfriend is also a germaphobe, which would further explain this logic.
08/13/2010
I mainly assume that them sitting in soapy water and being rinsed counts as washing..but if they were dirty before I got in then I will actually scrub them, and I'd say about maybe every few days I actually do wash them.

yeah i do but embarrasingly enough only when i remember that i haven't, so like, now
08/13/2010
I don't wash them * meticulously *, but I do wash them whenever I wash the rest of my body. I sort of scrub them against each other and make sure the spaces in between my toes are clean. I had a roommate whom I adored deeply, but she would prance around barefoot and go to bed with soles the color of... well, let's just say they weren't squeaky clean.
08/13/2010
I wash them mostly in the shower, but also other times, if I've been running around outside barefoot.

this is such a funny question. I started being a clean feet freak when my two year old started taking naps in my bed. I could never figure out how in the heck my sheets got so dirty, and then realized it was his gross feet from playing outside. Now I have to have clean feet before I set foot in my bed, and so does everyone else. My kiddo isn't allowed to watch a movie at naptime unless he lets me scrub his feet hehe

I generally give them a once over as I'm washing in the shower. It's not terribly thorough, but my feet seem as clean as the rest of me afterwards.
08/13/2010
most of the time i don't wash my feet cuz i will fall lol

I live with a foot enthusiast (lol he's not quite a fetishist but close) so I clean my feet fairly meticulously since he will grab one to kiss at anytime.

I have made both Sigel and Arch crack up when I stop at the sink, hoist up a foot and proceed to wash it before getting into the tub! It's just nasty when you are soaking in the tub to remember how black your feet were just minutes ago.

I only wash my feet when they are filthy black/green from walking around outside. Neither my partner or I have a foot fetish so my feet are not my top priority. If they've been soaking in water its all good.
08/14/2010
I generally give them a good scrub down in the shower, but nothing super meticulous.
If they're dirty, I'll give them a rinse off if I've already had the shower for the day.
I did have a boyfriend that had a foot fetish, and I learned to take care of my feet because of it. It's not as extreme now, though.

I had the person giving me a pedicure tell me to wash my feet better once... I thought they were clean!! I try to do a better job when I remember now-- between toes, etc.
08/14/2010
I shower every night and I wash them every night, too. I have an ingrown nail right now as well, so I'm taking even more attention and putting it on my feet as of late. (Ingrowns SUCK!)
08/14/2010
I was my feet while showering and bathing and such. But also, if I go somewhere in flipflops and my feet get dirty, I'll wash them with a washcloth too.
08/14/2010
I even do my own pedicures!
