I guess no one told pedicurists that washing feet was highly controversial and could lead to great financial loss. Funny that nail salons make almost a third of their income on pedicures... Over 7 billion dollars is nothing to sneeze at.

Religion can be considered as catalysts for customer movement from loyalty to boycott. Religion defines and explains the values for life, which in turn are reflected in the values and attitudes of societies and human beings. Such values and attitudes shape form the behavior of institutions and members of cultures ([27] Fam et al. , 2004).
Regardless of different degrees of religious commitment; religiosity are linked and correlated to particular consumer lifestyles. Consequently, "religiosity is a viable consumer construct because it is correlated with lifestyle variables such as opinion leadership, risk avoidance, credit purchase and life satisfaction" ([24] Essoo and Dibb, 2004, p. 689). Therefore, it is argued that religiousness or religiosity, is an important value in the individual's cognitive structure, and can influence an individual's behavior toward buying products ([46] Lau, 2010).
The connection and relationship between culture and religion can be shown through self identity and family ([49] Lindridge, 2005). Culture can be identified by three ideational themes: " cognitive - language based, symbolic - objects, and structuralist - organisations, with the latter perhaps being the most relevant issue" ([49] Lindridge, 2005, p. 143). Drawing upon the study of Levi-Strauss, the structuralist approach concentrates on culture noticeable within social organisations and structures and the way in which they are learned and acted upon by the individual ([49] Lindridge, 2005). As [59] Reber (1985) considered that religion perpetuates societal structures, such as religious institutions, [49] Lindridge (2005) therefore concluded that religion can be identified with the structuralist approach to culture. "A set of cultural norms and values, perpetuated through a structuralist cultural system, identifiable with collectivism and individualism can be extracted from a religion" ([49] Lindridge, 2005, p. 143). Collectivism and individualism can be represented by the degree a culture supports, fosters and facilitates an independent and distinctive self over other group members ([14] Brewer and Chen, 2007; [49] Lindridge, 2005).
It is evident that a consumer adopts products, behaviors, and practices in an attempt to satisfy the way others look at them. With the dramatic increase in consumer choice, self identity has become a matter of personal selection of self-image ([33] Hamilton and Hassan, 2010). Therefore, in cultural context and to build self identity of customers, conspicuous consumption may lead to boycott based on customers' religious beliefs.

Yuqi plox you're reaching or drunk. Stop reading tumblr.
I don't need to read tumblr, this is basic international buissness/marketing 101.
Yeah, if washing feet would be problematic then you could also make an argument for a ton of other things.
Like how the Inquisitor holding a sword during the whole... ceremony at Skyhold is phallic symbolism and therefore sexist. 
It is phalic system and sexist lol
Retour en haut
I think it's a bit too extreme, even if it is a logical progression for her personality to take. The execution of hardening her is even more extreme than Origins. 
Personally I think she should narrate everything in the entire universe. Claudia Black can take over when she needs a break.
