What makes Foot fetish so popular?

I’ve always wondered (not being afoot lover myself) why Foot fetish is such a big thing.

What makes people get turned on by Feet? It seems to be such a popular niche / theme with a lot of guys into feet. Why, what makes guys into feet? Other niches are easy to figure out, but feet always been one i never understood.

Re: What makes Foot fetish so popular?

I dont know really, I have a thing for ankles, mainly straight guys ankles. Dont ask me why it makes a difference but it does lol.

I have found that if you show feet and ankles on freesites they seem to perform better, even though your not targetting that niche. I think its why College Dudes 247 does so well. Of course I cant scientificly prove this, its just looking at which sites make sales and which dont. CD 247 always have great feet and ankle shots in the content they give out.

My best guess is that its because we cover up our feet so much. Even when people wear shorts theyd wear ankle socks, so its kind of hidden most of the time.

Where the ankle thing comes from is beyond me LOL

I find men’s feet attractive to some extent as they do represent one part of a man’s body. If they fit in the whole picture nicely, it is a great turn on. Shoes and sports shoes can also come into play here…

Re: What makes Foot fetish so popular?

I can maybe shed some light on this. I don’t know why, but when I was growing up I had a thing about my feet — were they normal? did they look how feet should look? And I was mostly concerned with the form and shape of my toe nails. I guess growing up there was so much that wasn’t “normal” about me, but in some respect I was looking for something where I was the same as everyone else. That’s my armchair psychiatrist’s opinion anyway.

Now as an adult I have a thing about feet. I don’t particular like to do anything with them, but a guy’s got to have nice feet to keep me around. And I look at feet all the time. I’m not so interested somewhere like the gym or the baths, but when I’m out and about I’m always steeling looks at guy’s feet. In the elevator, in the grocery store, at the bank … if a guy is wearing sandals, I’ll be checking out his feet.

I think that they turn me on so much because you can tell a lot about a man by the shape of his feet. Your feet are your foundation, they support you all day long while you walk throughout your day. If you have dry feet, dirty toenails, cracked and calloused heels, I think it says something about you. Our feet spend so much time covered up in socks and shoes, so if you have nice feet I think it says that you really take the time to go the extra mile and take care of them.

I used to have a boyfriend, who after I had a long shift waiting tables, he’d massage my feet and it just felt like heaven. It was also painful as he worked out all the tension, but it was still amazing.

The feet are also one of the most sensitive parts of the body, so if you touch them, kiss them, rub them, massage them, and lick them, it can feel pretty awful. Most guys suck cock or fuck ass, but if you find one who will rub your feet, it’s such a rare thing that it’s a real treat.

I have on many occasions not called a guy back for a second date because he had ugly feet. Sometimes, it’s not their fault, they were just born with ugly feet, gnarly toe nails, bent toes, or bone-dry feet, but I don’t want to spend the rest of my life, or even a couple of months if it doesn’t work out, looking at ugly feet.

One thing that drives me crazy about gay porn is that (a) photographers hardly ever show you a guy’s feet unless they’re shooting fetish stuff, and (b) guys with dirty feet because they’ve been walking around the set for a couple of hours. (This last thing drive me nuts on So You Think You Can Dance, too.)

Anyway, there’s some insight.

It think that for most guys into it, it is the submission - dominance thing. Licking another guys feet is a very submissive act. At least that is how it is for me and a few guys that I have talked with about that fetish.

That bugs me too. For the love, clean your feet!

Re: What makes Foot fetish so popular?

I have a line of non-sexual nude male videos that involve pose/model scenes of cock and balls and feet.

HUGE sellers.

Nick,

You’re developing this annoying habit of dropping these plugs for your videos into threads. It’s getting tired. Perhaps you could contribute more to the thread and let us check things out by clicking your signature when we feel like it.

Re: What makes Foot fetish so popular?

Thats a really good explenation. Some of it very much makes sense. Interesting subject.

I would ask the boyfriend him being a psychotherapist but I know what his answer would be… something to do with growing up and wanting to have sex with your mum or dad. Bloody Freudians! lol

This makes much more sense. Thanks for that!

Re: What makes Foot fetish so popular?

I was told by someone who had a strong foot fetish and had looked into it that there’s a theory that th part of the brain that recognizes feet is right next to the part of the brain where sexual arousal occurs, and in some people, for some reason, there’s “cross wiring” there.

I have no idea if this is true or not, but the person who told me was pretty grounded and not generally prone to BS or exaggeration, so I’ve sort of held onto it as one of those things to someday do some research on.

Oh no … I’m a mutant!

Interesting. I’ll have to Google this.

Re: What makes Foot fetish so popular?

Not sure either. All I know is that every guy that my bf comments on in the summer has nice feet and is wearing flip flops. It drives him bananas.
