It's very hard for me to find shoes my size. I sometimes have to go to the kid's section. 
I have around 2 1/2- 3 in men's, and probably a 6 in women's? (I get mainly Converse and Vans, and they ususally show the men's size)
I tan quite easily though.

Well, you are quite tall, so I'm pretty sure that evens it out.

And my guy shoes aren't really that bad, but they are VERY masculine.

Ah. I see.
If it weren't for the blue skulls, it would look more feminine, I'd assume.
The shoes I usually wear look more gender-neutral.

I actually like the skulls. I just couldn't find anything gender-neutral when I last went shoe shopping.

Ahahahahaaaa... no. I like feeling as bare foot as I possibly can.
I managed to convince my mom not to buy grandpa shoes for my step-dad for father's day. He already has a white pair of Nike Monarchs, which he lovingly calls "Monarchs" or "King Size."

Random question: Do you take off your shoes when you go into your house?
Well, it's not completely random, since you said you like the feeling of bare feet.
I usually like wearing shoes like that, you don't have to worry about it falling off and such. As for flip-flops and sandals, I only wear those to the beach or pool.
And ah.

Take them off? I rarely put them on at all. But yes. My mom is obsessed with keeping the floors clean.
The only sucky parts of having bare feet all the time is stepping on hot concrete, rocks, or standing in snow for too long. And also having dry soles.

You go barefoot outside? I couldn't do that for long, I don't like the dry sensation on my feet.
On a somewhat related topic, I learned this year that you should not lie down in snow for an extended period of time (for example, to take a nap). Too late, during Spring break when I was on vacation, I ran into the woods and just laid down in the snow.

Yes, I go barefoot outside. It's a childhood habit that I never grew out of.
I've also handled snow with my bare hands, as well as had rugby practice in the snow (which isn't very fun because I couldn't feel my legs or my butt after awhile
).

The feeling of barefootedness IS nice though.
Hm. What's rugby? I forgot.
