Did a search but was surprised not to find any discussion (well maybe I am the "anomaly" LOL
),so would be interested in opinions and experiences: after showering I always put my socks back on - low circulation / always cold / feels better / etc. I usually get some reaction to this, usually a funny one: "you didn't shower with socks on did you ?!!?" and so on, good laughs all around, and the session continues.
Recently though I got my first "strong" reaction: the provider saying that she was not really comfortable with this because the socks are also part of the outside clothes that I cam in with, so after the shower she expected them to be off! I immediately suggested to shower again but she saw that I wasn't trying to "do anything" just a very honest scenario, so we continued quickly but of course everything else was not the same after that!
I can sort of see what she was saying but to me this is really a bit much - socks are not the same as pants, what if I accidentally touched the shirt I was wearing on the way out of the shower, the possibilities are endless! We need to be clean of course but to me this is trying to be "sterile" ?!?!?!?
