Back in the 1960’s, requiring people to wear shoes to use public services was seen as a way to shoo hippies, since the government at the time was not fond of them. The requirement never went away, but the excuse today is that being in bare feet is a health risk.
Garden at my parent’s house. Lush, green grass, shadows below the trees, and most of the year no danger of slugs.
Edit: wait, wait. Anti barefoot laws? What for? Why?
