This article was brought about by one of the responses to a post that I wrote last month.

At the grocery store, while I was reaching for some frozen shrimp, a middle-aged man, walked right up to me and my daughter and proceeded to tell me how much my red painted toes turned him on. “They give me goose bumps all over my body” were his exact words
