Jesus washed His disciples feet, are you aware of that? It's a humbling act. You should try it.

It's all good. It's not one of my kinks but it doesn't strike me as terribly unusual or hard to get.

Not a fetish perhaps,but I am skilled in doing aromatheripic foot massages and have done so before for my ex.A welcome relief from the stresses of the day.

Aside from that,feet are a wonderful place to tease,tickling whilst restrained I have found particularly interesting.Not me though,I am not ticklish.

For Catholics, you're supposed to kiss the pope's feet to prostrate yourself.
There's something inherently deferential and/or submissive in that.
Many find feet to be highly aesthetical in appearance.
And the tactile bits are just excellent.
Lots of symbolism, too.

I'm not really into it, but the other day i watched a sub kiss his lady's shoe. He kissed it with such devotion and passion that it was all i need to see to understand, and it was a beautiful scene of submission.

It is thought that all parts of the body can be effected through the feet and acupressure points for every part of the body is mapped on the feet and toes. Add the most humble position is at someone's feet and the foot massage becomes a service which is greatly appreciated. i tend to believe that most men do not care for their feet and that a foot massage and a pedicure is one gift i can give that they may not even be award of how good it can make them feel. Feet are not a fetish for me but i do love to serve and see my Dom happy.

None of the people who responded wrote about the fetish, merely an interest.

Real foot fetishism has absolutely nothing interesting about it, save for the fetishist whose entire sexual interest is displaced onto feet.

That's the nature of fetishism. Involvement with feet isn't one of many different interests the person has; it is the only thing.

It's the same with all of the different fetishisms, as with shoes, hair or fur.

I tend to view the women who put up pictures of their feet very much as some women view men who focus on the "cock shots" (but I get nowhere near as upset about it.)

Luckily for all concerned, in our culture fetishism of any sort is incredibly rare. I had occasion to speak to a psychiatrist who was in charge of a psychiatric residency program at a major New York hospital. He said that in all of work he had run into exactly one classical fetishist (shoes). He added that the fetishist had no real enjoyment from it but found that it created massive disruptions in his life (e.g. getting fired from a job because the trip there took him past a shoe store.)

true enough, but the reality is, most people refer to interests or heightened interests as fetishes. so I would imagine the OP's questioned was answered by the people who posted.

People who think they know everything are incredibly annoying to those of us who do.

J/K Speaking only for myself, "fetish" is simply stating something we really enjoy on a regular basis. I wouldn't call myself a "foot fetishist" but I really do enjoy giving a nice lotion massage to Mistress' feet.

Ready, I have to agree! I love it even more when they pull the psychology card. (They get a big eye roll.)

I have had the chance to council someone with a foot fetish, and know that there was more to what turned him on then just the feet. It just happened to be a part of his sexuallity that he was mentally beating himself up about.

The case that is mentioned here is one where the fetish starts effecting your life; job, family, ect. Like any sexual activity that takes over your life in a unhealthy manner, it should be seeking some professional help.

According to Freud, we're just terrified of vaginas.

Ignoring that doggerel... (Ooo.. Oh no.. A vagina... I must hide.. The fear.. The fear.. Ah sod it, fancy a good slurping? ;P)

I couldn't tell you. I can tell you lots of things I like about feet, but not why, anymore than I could tell you the precise, clinical, reason that I'm a switch.

Feet have a lot of good points - HUGE numbers of nerves, for one!

There's potentially a humiliation aspect to them which is enjoyable ('Lick my dirty feet, bitch'), but at the same time.. they're potentialy one of, if not the, most sensitive areas of the body. One of my more fondly missed exes would beg to have her toes sucked. It dropped her into subspace faster than anything. :) (And indeed, yelp and whimper in a most pleasing fashion when being caned on her soles :P)

Personally, I like the smell, the taste, the power (both ways), and the asthetics.

I'm also very fond of boobs and vaginas for similar reasons. (They're fun goddamnit!)

What's so fantastic about boobs? Or cocks? Or any other part of the human body the innumerable fascinations of humanity fall on?

A swift google reminds me that the person responsible for bringing fetishes into the limelight (as it were), Richard von Krafft-Ebing, drew a distinction between 'psychological fetishism', which would be.. uh.. people like me, who dig feet (or rubber, or hands, or tongues, or whatever), and ‘pathological, erotic fetishism’, i.e. people who are only aroused by their fetish.

All a question of scale. Hands up who gets turned on by pain? Well done. According to the equivalent definition of fetish in paraphilias in general - you're mentally ill! :)

as someone with a foot fetish i disagree. i will admit that i do (very slightly) obsess over feet, but that in no way limits my sexual intrest solely to feet.

I find some feet to be a great turn on. like anything else i there is a certain standard to what i find attractive. as to why i enjoy playing/worshipiping feet, it's really quite simple, feet are always being used but very rarely pampered. odds are that the person your playing with hasn't experienced many of the pleasures that can be had from foot worship. if your interested in hearing about how i generally indulge my fetish feel free to message me about it and i will discribe a basic seen of mine to you.

From the point of view of one whose first scene was a request to a kinky lover to experiment with bastinado...I'll just say that the soles of my feet, especially the arches, are something that I believe I can orgasm from contact there alone...but it will take a dedicated foot fetishist or service sub to do so, because I've had a foot fetishist actually shudder at the sight of my bare feet. A nice guy, but he had trouble just looking at them. No play partner here!

Dear winterlight... How pathetic and ignorant is your post?? From all the posts and as a foot fetishist myself as my prime form of BD&SM practice i would applaud ASWAD for His most correct answer. The act itself shows and displays the most humble and true humility that submission can give without the sexual gratification. Is there another act of submissiveness that displays the difference between the Dominant and the sub? Do you forget that as a submissive you have to lower yourself before your D??! i really wonder if you are a submissive for the purpose of true service, or you are just a submissive to have your kinks satisfied.
