    Socks all the time. All the time. all the fucking time. If socks didn’t get wet in the shower I’d wear them in there.

    Edit: actually, thinking about it, wet socks are probably worse than anything. Like buzzing insects make my brain itchy and my spine tickle, but wet socks do something far far far worse.

      But do you get unexplainable discomfort when you aren’t wearing socks? That’s the sensory issue. If you don’t get that, then it’s just a preference.

    no socks, but not as sensory issue

    socks just aren’t practical or useful. they make walking on some floors annoying, and since I go outside in sandals/slippers (this is my sensory issue, normal shoes are never comfortable) I’d have to take them off and on frequently. I don’t need the warmth where I live.

    Always wearing socks unless I’m bathing. No exceptions. Even at the beach. Even in the water. The socks don’t come off.

    The first time my now wife saw me take off my socks she had a freak out like she didn’t believe they’d actually come off. Like watching someone remove their own skin.

    I go through socks like nobody’s business. Recently upgraded to crew socks to get more durability.

    Any “underwear sensory issues” folk in the house? I do not mean that in any sort of sexy way but in a “dear God get it off me” way.

    Socks at all times. The plain black ones that end right above the ankle and I change them about 3 times a day even if I’ve spent all day sitting at my desk.

    I was a “socks at all times” person but then I learned my constant sock wearing was causing some minor foot problems and found love for the feeling of my feet being free of socks so now I’m strictly “socks exactly half of the time” kinda person. My family isn’t sure what to make of actually seeing my bare feet from time to time now since neither they nor I ever did see my feet before very recently
