Is it worse if the foot is bare versus in a sock versus in a shoe? How about sandals? Seems to me putting your foot on someone else's armrest is rude and an invasion of personal space, regardless of the type of covering, if any.

Sunday I flew LAX-JFK on AA 32 (a 3-class 767-200). I was in business, in 10B. Next to me was a woman who spent the first part of the flight slouched down in her seat (10A), with one foot on the armrest of the seat in front, and the other on the center console between 9AB. She kept her shoes on, but I found it rude just the same.
