There are a couple of questions here: Should a BF, or GF, tell the other that their work attire is appropriate? It depends on the relationship and where it is/is not going in the future. I think the OP probably isn't in the kind of relationship where that would be appropriate. As a hypothetical, would it be okay for my spouse to suggest I might want to cover up a bit more in the workplace. Yes, just as it would be okay for me to suggest he not wear the ratty t-shirt to meet a client. That is all hypothetical though because I wouldn't wear revealing clothing to an office, and we both work from home offices so anything goes since no one sees us.
The second issue is what type of attire is appropriate in a workplace. Again, it depends on the workplace. I'm probably old-fashioned but I can't imagine many offices where flip-flops are appropriate--no matter how fancy the flip-flops are. I do differentiate between sandals and flip-flops.
I forget to mention the context, which may or may not make a difference. We are planning to get engaged, married, and have children in the near future. 3 year relationship.
Yes, of course she can do whatever she wants and I haven't said anything about the feet. This is hypothetical, trying to get a consensus. No, I'm not posting pics to show off feet. I think, in a serious relationship, there are certain boundaries and levels of respect.
To thoss who bring up the point of ....
"You "don't want" your girlfriend exposing her feet to all the fetishists in her workplace...so you post pictures of her on a public internet forum."
The workplace is public forum just as the Internet as. That's my point. Anyways, how else am I supposed to get an opinion?
My point here is a matter of respect really. To me. Yes, her professional goals and potential problems are her business. The "fetish" stats and all is just to illustrate the fact that feet are attractive to men.
We can't wear flip-flops in my office. If she's already been warned, she'd better be careful.
Men who admire feet will notice them in high heels or any pretty shoes. There's nothing much you can do about it if she doesn't want to wear Crocs all day.
Yes, you'd be wrong for complaining. She can show her feet as much as she wants (or at least until she gets fired).
As her future husband, why would I want her to get fired?
