Why is it sideways?
No one can deny the joy [of walking barefoot], aside from podiatrists making a fist-load of money on their bruised feet. But as stated before in this column, nature has no intent. Nature is merely a framework in which humans evolved to live about 20 years, mate and die.
Barefooters also run the risk of never being invited to an Asian home, because they can't take off their feet.
Barefoot and happy
Not to mention the risk they cause to society (ie ugly toes or stinky feet).
