The employer will have to take care how exactly they word the ban. When I was a union rep, some dickhead manager decided he didn't want women coming to work in DMs. Unfortunately, he mentioned Doc Martens by name. I wrote to DMs about this, saying that one of the larger public sector employees in the country was seeking to ban their product. DMs then threatened to sue Her Majesty's Government. Happy days. 
Crocs banned in hospitals!

Hey nice one t' Button.
John - I agree - i wouldn't feel comfy being treated by a Crocs wearer either!! Not a great indicator of good judgement in the first instance. DM's are cool tho - especially my bright orange ones.
This NHS therapist i saw once - youngish attractive femme - bent over once and i saw her pink lace and leopard print semi-transparent g-string - it was a bit hard to concentrate on her words of wisdom after that!!

ah! didnt know what you were talking about till rogue showed the picture.
they could be as comfortable as walking on air, i'd never wear anything as gaudy as those things. see people with them all the time, hideous things, even when not pink. was wondering why i was seeing tons of adults wearing footwear which was clearly made for children.

Oh i meant cos i found that erotic - not that what she was saying didn't make sense - it was just hard to focus on it. : (Also i should never have been referred to her in the first place! it was a NHS referral from my GP who knew it was for general counselling - i was surprised that the directions took me to this place where there were posters re: STDs and AIDS and stuff on the walls - I had been sent by mistake to the clap clinic! Thanks for that!! 
She asked me if my probs were anything to do with sex - i said they weren't but they could be... 
)
John who is Curb and are they male or female??

Personally I tend to find those who wear g-strings or leopard print particularly unattractive. Those pink lace ones were big a year or 2 ago (as in, they were in all the shops, not attempting to imply that I get sufficient "action" to be able to testify about trends in women's underwear, before the Wankfast clique get on it).
Yeah g-strings and leopard print are awful esp. together!! But this was a nice surprise as it was soo unexpected - the rest of the outfit was standard issue dowdy counsellor (tho i am not dowdy either but you know what i mean.. we are talking mostly frumpy tops, long shapeless skirts, dangly earrings, no make up and an earnest expression combined with a sense of cluelessness as to how the world works! ) plus she was attractive!

Yeah i had one friend tell me that too!
How comfortable?? In what way? How can wearing a glorified bit of dental floss on your below bits ever be comfortable?? Luckily all the other females i know agree with me that they are hideously uncomfortable - and tacky. Not in a good way.

also LW my first love wore g strings and she was shy as fuck, she swore to fuck they were more comfortable.
Like i have said everyone knows one person who says they are comfortable. it would be interesting if it were the same person everyone knew.
Btw the ONLY thing i know about your first love is that she wore g-strings. Mebbe tell me something else about her at some point as it seems a bit odd to only have that one fact.

The way I understand it, g-strings are comfortable "once you've gotten used to them." I guess once you are used to constantly having a wedgie, you prefer it.
Yeah i think that is it. Peeps get used to a lot of awful stuff (like life under capitalism! ) but that doesn't mean it is a good thing! They get comfortable with the discomfort. It's what they know.

I used to tease my elderly mum a bit when younger about her preference for French knickers and corsets and stuff - now i am no longer a miserable teen i get it!!
