    So the woman can’t see if the salesman is diddling himself while leering hungrily at her exposed ankle?

    This is 100% way more reasonable that letting women put their own shoes.

    /s just in case

      How could she put on her own shoes while wearing a corset? Besides, that’s the servants’ job.

    I thought it was a tail, but then… Is it a hat?

      I think that is an actual hood! It would basically be an old style cloth long cap, done extra long and then wrapped around the neck.

      If they used “or” wouldn’t that imply that it only does one at a time?

      It’s not being executed, just humiliated in front of all the other feet.

      The other feet can like throw socks at it or something.

    Definitely wasn’t inventing gloryholes and had to come up with an alternative explanation when the boss walked in. We’ve all been there.

    Is this a new requirement from the US government for shoe stores or is this about history? I’m really unsure

        No, I think they meant “this is most likely an AI hallucination, NOT something that actually existed.”
