Feet. Do you really care?

I want your feet. Mine are huge and wide and look like they could belong to Fred Flintstone.

I have been crazy mad for women’s feet since at least age 12 - to the point where I find the shoes-in-bed rule in mainstream pr0n totally distracting. Males normally get totally nekkid - why is it a “specialty” thing when females leave the lingerie and heels on the floor? Real life people usually do.

I don’t focus exclusively on feet, but they turn me on as part of the whole woman. Way I see it, if a lady is ashamed of her feet, why is she letting a guy inside her box? What’s more private than that?

Sorry, old joke.

I think 99% of the feet I’ve seen in my life have been rather unpleasant to look at, and the only real reason I dislike warm weather is because I know I’m going to be subjected to the unsightly view of many unshod feet. Really, people- getting a pedicure is about as useful as trying to polish a turd, if you ask me. I don’t even like the look of my own.

Maybe there should be an age limit. Kids’ feet don’t bother me, but the 65 year old woman with yellowed corns, warts, bunions and a hammertoe, all crammed into an open-toed sandal, is one of the most off-putting visuals of the summer.

According to friends and my SO, I’ve got pretty feet. They’re big (but so am I), relatively wide, and help me stand up, walk, and run. I’m lucky I don’t have any foot problems, and I don’t really notice other people’s feet.

I don’t quite get being weirded out by feet. They’re just there to help you get around.

McNew, I agree in part on your last point, but a lot depends on the woman. I remember thinking Sally Field’s feet were younger- and nicer-looking than her hands when she did that magazine cover awhile back…

Except that’s not what’s ugly about them. Her toes are more crooked than most rivers.

To the OP: Why is it so hard to believe that to some, feet are their “well-shaped butt” or “inner-theigh”?

I’m a huge fan of feet myself. I couldn’t tell you why, but I do enjoy myself a nice set of soles.

I have huge honking wide floppy feet. I wear women’s 11, which really means I wear a men’s 9 and get really excited when I find girl shoes that fit. I spent most of high school on a quest to find shoes that made my feet look smaller (round toed ballet flats work. chuck all-stars don’t).

However, swimming and martial arts have taught me to appreciate them. I mean, who needs flippers? And my legs may be short and stumpy but I could kick you in the face with my massive feet.

I don’t really have an opinion on men’s feet though. As long as they don’t smell too badly.

Maybe her toes are crooked from breaking them? I was pretty clumsy when I was young and forever breaking my toes. I spent half my life with my toes taped together so they heal straight.

Butts are just things you squeeze shit out of, breasts are just for feeding babies and thighs just keep your knees from grinding against your pelvis. It’s all just body parts. There’s no logical reason one should be considered more attractive an another. But, humans are not logical, and attraction isn’t a logical thing.

My husband dislikes the appearance of bare feet. If there is such a thing as an anti-foot-fetishist, he’s it. The sight of feet is a turnoff for him. In the past, I’ve received compliments on my feet, but I won’t get any from hubby.

At the other extreme, I dated a foot fetishist once. He still has several pairs of my shoes (unless he has worn them out doing strange things to them). It can be kind of ooky to date someone whose sexual obsession you do not share.

To answer your question, I guess it’s because I don’t find anything female or male about feet. I guess, to me, feet have no gender.

Butts, breasts, faces, hair, etc. all are gender related. (hair not so much from a technical POV but how it’s worn usually is). Feet are like nostrils - just not a gender thing and, I guess, IMHO, YMMV, PDQ, etc, aren’t subject to standards of sexual attractiveness.

You go, stucco. Women with large feet give a guy more to love.

The way I’ve heard it (but then again, I just might know weird people) is that having the shoes still on is supposed to be hot. I don’t get it. What if she accidentally kicks you or something? Perhaps the fact that I even ask that question shows what a klutz I am, though.

I’ve never actually known a fetishist of any kind and I always wanted to ask about them. The whole thing is very interesting to me.

Bolding mine.

What did they do with it?

I’ve got size 10s, and feel really lucky that I do, as they’re most often the largest shoe size available. They’re still useful for swimming, though.

It’s an old joke a friend played on people, including my kids. When he would first meet people after losing a leg at the knee (bike wreck), he would try to help them get over any discomfort by discussing his prosthetic leg. He would tap on his leg, then move the leg in a way that made it appear the foot was moving. Then he would say, “Yep, they were able to save the foot”. Some people would think about that for a loooong time before asking. :wink:

Women have feet?

I have incredibly cute feet. Not even the rain has such small feet. I come in on little cat’s feet.

That said, they’re a mess right now. I’m always barefoot the second I’m home and since we got hardwood floors whatever resin they put on them sticks to feet and turns them black. Plus I’ve been walking more and got callouses. But this is nothing a good hot shower and some pumice woun’t cure.

I repeatedly told my SO how sexy I thought his feet were. Well they were! I don’t know why.

I like playing footsie so yeah I care :slight_smile: .

There are a lot of body parts which I don’t usually particularly notice, but I’ll still appreciate a well-shaped thigh, or callipygian buttocks, when I see them. But I don’t recall ever once noticing a pair of feet as particularly attractive or unattractive. They’re just a complete nonentity for me, æsthetically speaking.
