Victoria Beckham Disorder

Times: How bad is your VB?

Victoria Beckham Disorder is apparently a disorder which causes women to need to control every aspect of their lives.

According to this test, featured in the Times, asking visitors to remove their shoes is a symptom of VBD.

I do object to people making out that those of us who want shoes-off in our homes are control freaks. I think it is the people that want to keep their shoes on all the time that are the control freaks.

Does Victoria Beckham have a shoes-off policy? It would be a wonderful coup if so great a celebrity as she kept a shoeless home. I do know she likes to wear slippers at home. However, she wore high heels on her yacht, which is utterly contrary to yacht etiquette.

Her husband is supposed to be obsessive-compulsive, so maybe he might be keen on keeping their home clean.
