Airplane Etiquette 101: keep your feet off the seats, walls, and windows around you. Apparently one passenger did not get the memo.
Airline Passenger Makes Creative Use Of Aircraft Windows With Feet…
Passenger Shaming, one of my favorite Instagram accounts, brings us a video of a deplorable passenger utilizing two windows as a pseudo foot rest.

I look at the picture and it makes me think the passenger is preparing for a gynecology check-up (though it’s not clear if the passenger is male or female).
For the life of me, I still cannot understand why people take their socks off on airplanes and often walk around barefoot. Folks, that isn’t water on the lavatory floor…
Here, though, we have a person sleeping in what looks to me like an incredibly uncomfortable position. Like, I understand if this was some sort of exercise for core muscles, but the passenger appears to be sleeping.
People do sleep in different ways. I sleep in the fetal position. But I can definitively say that sleeping in this position looks torturous.
CONCLUSION
Folks, let’s be good neighbors on airplanes. That means keeping your feet to yourselves. The conduct of the passenger above may not be totally disgusting, but it is certainly rude.

So uncouth.
Even if I can’t see the image due to the fact that I block all Facebook products.
Are you bored and melancholy if this is all you have to write about?
Although that’s bad, it’s even worse when they keep their shoes on. After all, “that isn’t water on the lavatory floor…”
The amount of foot shaming on ff blogs is amazing. It’s as if they don’t realize half the world is barefoot regularly. It’s not the foot that’s the problem, it’s hygiene. Many of us wash our feet 2 tines a day, and have no problems… Whereas some people have issues without taking anything off.
I concur. The person in the photo appears to be doing this in their own row without intruding into other rows. Provided the feet aren’t smelly, no harm no foul (pardon the pun.) Taking off their shoes while their feet aren’t on the floor is appropriate as well.
I don’t see a problem.
Honestly, that doesn’t even look comfortable…
Most of us are stoical when it comes to economy overnight flights: we knew the likely reality and chose to ‘grin and bear it’; some selfish, thoughtless and shameless creatures choose instead to ‘grin and bare it’ ( …and not only in relation to feet). There is an aggression about this that doesn’t sit well. It shouldn’t be acceptable.
Not much different than irresponsible parents allowing their young children to climb all over the seat with their shoes on.
Spawn of Satan; those climbers should be strapped in for the duration except when using the lavatory. I’d sooner share the cabin with dogs, peacocks, miniature horses, owls, otters and marmosets.
It could be worse, you could walk barefoot in most hotel rooms. #whyialwaysbringflippyfloppies
