podia-neuroses

I have a friend who doesn't let people see her feet. Even the person she sleeps with at night. Socks on all the time.

I have to admit, I'm not a huge fan of feet myself. With a particular emphasis on mine. It is rare you find my toes unpolished, although I've come to not care as much as I used to.

There was an interesting article in the NYTimes by Catherine Saint Louis about feet.

More than 50 percent of women say their feet embarrass them “always, frequently or sometimes,” according to a 2008 study of 500 women by Kelton Research for the American Podiatric Medical Association.

Only one in three women moisturize their feet eight or more times a month, according to the 2008 podiatric association study.

I wonder what the stats are for men?
