[QUOTE=bergamini;28924004]..... There is a definite difference in the acceptability of a clean shoe foot on a coffee table versus a bare foot on a bulkhead. /QUOTE]
What if the wearer of that clean shoe just walked off a plane, and used the airplane bathroom while in flight? Do you still think it's a clean shoe?

Ok - DYKWIA-ish
I don't think being spiteful qualifies as DYKWIA -- and I didn't use my status, job or wealth (of which I don't have anyway). There's no pictures on passenger shaming with people who have their clean shoe feet on a coffee table and there are a lot with bare feet on a bulkhead, so right or wrong those are the social mores. There are also a lot of pictures of 3 of our 4 last presidents with their feet on a coffee table, so to some extent it is socially acceptable although I admit not ideal behavior. Howste had a good point, anything after that is just piling it on to pile on and prove superiority for reasons unknown to me. There is a definite difference in the acceptability of a clean shoe foot on a coffee table versus a bare foot on a bulkhead. If you've ever gotten athlete's foot from the gym you will understand why.
Although if people want, I will take a picture of my shoes on a coffee table and share it so they can distribute it to the passenger shaming and disgusting acts threads / groups and see how much traction it gets.

I'm not sure the Presidents' actions in what is basically their home makes for acceptable behavior in public.
Assuming you wear your shoes to the bathroom, I agree with ChopChop that you should keep your feet off a table in the Sky Club.

I think it is offzputting to put bare feet on the bulkhead, but how can you get athlete's foot from the bulkhead unless you also put your bare feet there?

I have already admitted that I don't think it's optimal behavior but what I don't need/want/ask for is everyone to share why it's wrong. My mistake for sharing anything where I was at fault on FT - the faultless trolls with oodles of stories where they were perfect and won every travel duel are ready to pounce

ETA: Always OK with Howste catching minor dichotomy. Not OK with the piling on of it.

Why don't you take a picture of someone with their feet (in shoes) on a coffee table and post it on Passenger Shaming or this thread. And then post a picture of someone with bunion distorted naked feet having their feet on the bulkhead wall. Then see which one gains more traction. No more discussion; no more piling on me. Just see which one people are more appalled by. If you find that more or equal people are appalled by feet on a coffee table then I will admit I'm wrong. Until then, stop piling on me, stop trying to pick fights, stop trying to have a conversation that doesn't need to happen because I admitted something I clearly should not have. I have learned not to admit to anything on FT.

My point is not to argue which placement of feet is more or less offensive but to point out that the two points of view are just different opinions. The opinions about feet on tables are not a personal attack, as you seem to feel; they are alternative, but in many ways equivalent, points of view to your comments on the bare feet.
In regard to the photos, I expect that if you added some pics of young bare feet with good pedicures and some others of the grungy shoes I see on the tables at my local Starbucks, there would be some equivalency there also.

But that doesn't apply here because we saw the feet to which I responded and my shoes had just been shined as I always do on Monday AM's at the airport. So that's the reality.
