I have long said here how horrible it is to have feet on the bulkhead - I actually would prefer shoes to socks and socks to bare feet altogether. I have told you many times about that man (aka pig) who was clipping his toe nails in F and how a piece flew through the air and landed in someone's drink.
I am tempted to wonder what people do in their own homes - however of far greater interest is when one walks through hotels when rooms are being cleaned and the maid leaves the door propped open. It looks like a garbage dump and the wardrobe ignored in favour of a floor-drobe. I really wonder sometimes how the maid manages to clean anything at all.
This is yet another symptom of the I'm paying so I'll do as I please and to hell with manners or basic hygiene syndrome.
I'd be the first to question particularly disgusting or genuinely inconsiderate behaviour. But, really, some of the things being raised in this thread are ridiculously trivial (feet on bulk heads is a perfect example imo).
People need to remember that in public their social mores/hangups are not necessarily the same as the person sitting next to them. This is something that goes both ways and requires a certain amount of both consideration towards and tolerance of others and their actions in the context of the setting i.e. an airline lounge.
That said, people who leave toilets in a filthy mess, grrrrrr….
