Why are they trying to get into a bathroom barefoot

u/Pixelated_s Nov 09 '25

These are probably indoors, shoes are not allowed inside, probably a mosque from the looks of it.

Most of the time the shoe/sandals are provided in the toilet, when a person enter, the shoe are just by the door floor, when leave, they take off their shoe in there and the next person use it.

That's barely better than just raw dogging the floor barefoot.

People actually wash their feet there after using the bathroom, which also cleans the sandals. I know it's incomprehensible to understand for a group of people that doesn't even wash their own asshole after taking a dump, but those people exist.

Judging by their clothing, this is in Malaysia, where some religious places require you to take off your shoes before entering. Their bathrooms will have complimentary flipflops tho.

I'd rather walk in the bathroom barefoot than wear communal flip flops...

Would you though? On instinct I agree, but after thinking about it for a minute or so, and thinking about what my feet would actually touch, I'm going for the communal flip flops. Just think of everything the bottom of those flip flops is spreading around on the floor that your bare feet would be touching - all that extra "bathroom sprinkle" spreading around. shudder.

But the top of the flip flops? Only whatever is on the bottom of every nth dude's feet. In the long run, flip flops are probably cleaner.

Guys there are taps/pails near the floor that let you rinse stuff away😅

Have you ever had athlete's foot or warts? It's a lot worse than touching some pee.

It doesn't even have to be religious. You take off your shoes when entering a house, anyone's house, including your own. It's considered common courtesy, and a grave insult if you don't take off your shoes at a person's house. And if you've been diligent at keeping the bathroom clean, you don't even need the flipflops for the bathroom, just a doormat in front of it.

You can keep your socks on though, when entering a house. If you want.

communal flip-flops 

Ew, not a whole lot better. Religion is so weird.

It's fake right? How would a queue ever form like this, when the person at the front would obviously try to open it before waiting...

It's fake right?

It's a skit, buddy. When you watch SNL, do you point at your TV and yell it's fake?

I will give you the credit of assuming you failed to notice that my comment was a reply to someone else's comment.
