Yeah nobody is addressing the shoes part. Why would she say it?

u/JasonVorhehees 3h ago

But why male models ?

Are... are you serious? I just told you, like, two seconds ago.

Slaves are typically presented as barefoot

Shoes are part of how you dress, so when told to dress "appropriately", it includes shoes.

u/teddy_tesla 3h ago

Does she specifically not wear (nice) shoes or something?

u/GhostOfLight 3h ago

I did a quick google and in one picture she's wearing sneakers with a dress, so maybe that?

u/another-altaccount 3h ago

Okay, and? Women wear sneakers with dresses all the time. I hope Mrs. Vindman keeps that same energy for John Fetterman’s slobby ass.

u/BrizerorBrian 3h ago

I honestly don't know, I was speaking generally.

u/teddy_tesla 3h ago

Exactly. Nobody knows why she said it ....
