So the woman can’t see if the salesman is diddling himself while leering hungrily at her exposed ankle?
Didn’t the woman care about how the shoe looked on her? The device seems to also block the view for her.
Al Bundy would have loved one of these

Definitely wasn’t inventing gloryholes and had to come up with an alternative explanation when the boss walked in. We’ve all been there.
“Billingsley! What the devil are you doing with that contraption!?”
- oh this oh uehm it’s for ahhh shoes! Feeet! Yess keeps the devil’s thoughts at bay when this thing blocks the vision of anyone using it!! I was just facing toward it to check out the size and the wobbling was me testing the build quality ahh yes!
“But where are your pants? And why does that need to involve your bloody cock and balls!??”

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

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

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.
Nothing. It’s toetally innocent.
(…I’ll see myself out.)
Excessive skin exposure
Is this a new requirement from the US government for shoe stores or is this about history? I’m really unsure
Walking around to test the shoes was almost impossible, but usually gathered a little crowd to cheer the lassie on.
I feel like this isn’t real
That whole period of history has to be made up
No, I think they meant “this is most likely an AI hallucination, NOT something that actually existed.”
