Best Answer

In Catholic tradition, especially monastic tradition, bare feet are associated with penitence. The Franciscans, the Poor Claire, the reformed ("discalced", meaning "without shoes") Carmelites all went barefoot. Even today some of these Orders go barefoot or wear sandals without socks. Yet as bareness, even nudity, can be seen as penitent and/or innocent, there is the erotic potential (particularly with young attractive barefoot women); which is why, in at least Western Protestant churches, bare feet are not only rare, but might be looked at as disrespectful, peculiar, or even attention-seeking.
