  TBH dudes with foot fetishes assume no one else knows what a foot fetish is, and that’s where they run into trouble. See: Dan Snyder and Nickolodean.

  Example:

  Dude 1 openly harasses me about my butt, I hate it and move on with my life

  Dude 2 thinks he’s being slick. Talks to me for a few minutes bullshitting/smalltalk before the conversation is suddenly about how I’m on my feet all day and what shoes do you wear and what about your socks and… etc

  One is a cat call, the other is some weird social engineering shit that also insults my intelligence. I’m not making this up, these dudes try this on multiple targets until they can find a mark. My coworkers have to deal with it too. Don’t see them a lot but we warn each other about the foot guy.

  Sorry to all you normal, respectful people with foot fetishes, I’m sure you give awesome consensual foot rubs.

    My feet are fucked and the easiest way to explain it is with gloves.

    Just think about gloves or mittens. They fit over your hand perfectly. I mean it’s obvious right? You make hand shaped things for hands, why would you do anything else?

    Yet you look at shoes and none of them are fucking foot shaped and everyone acts like this is normal.

    So I hate feet, I hate my feet and I’m sure I hate your feet. But I’ll still rant about shoes and feet if it comes up.

      I recall seeing a lot of “internet hate” at finger shoes. There’s even a xkcd of that

  I don’t agree with this. I think it’s weirder to be into knees than feet. (Personally I’m an ass man, so I’m looking down at you all benevolently.)

  • Khrux@ttrpg.network ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Some people have mentioned that some people with foot fetishes have a habit of trying to get people they find attractive to talk about their feet which makes everyone uncomfortable, to the point that it’s kinda of the main reason I think a stigma has formed against it.

    If I met someone who for some reason I suspected was into feet, I’d be a little wary until I felt they weren’t gonna be weird about people’s feet, but I think if i met a knee fetish person, I’d be so surprised they exist that i wouldn’t think about this aspect even though it’s just as likely.

      You’ve given me much to think about. Perhaps someday society will forgive the feet people, but not today it seems.

  • Heavybell@lemmy.world ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    I’d also put calves above both, too. Not that I’ve heard of anyone having a calf fetish – while I have unfortunately seen evidence of people into knees – I think it’s easier to understand someone into legs appreciating a shapely calf as well as the thigh.

    • The_Worst@feddit.nl ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Agree. Calves can be beautiful.

  Unpopular opinion but feet ain’t even that bad. If you ever meet a man into knees, that’s when you run

    There are dozens of us! Dozens!

    Fr though, I can’t think of knees ever mentioned as a fetish except for people trying to be silly, my own first comment on this post included 🤷

  Hypothesis: Foot fetishes are a primary driving force behind the spread of genital warts.

  Evidence: Oh hell no, I ain’t putting that shit in my browsing history. Y’all got it from here.

  source

  • Ross_audio@lemmy.world ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Human papillomavirus HPV is responsible for warts on feet.

    So genital warts, mostly HSV (Herpes). Not nice but not particularly harmful most of the time. Cold sores and genital warts. Mouth, genitals. Won’t look nice but you won’t die.

    HPV - cancer.

    Further investigation on the evidence may be required but social acceptability chart above may be justified.

    If you have a foot fetish get vaccinated against HPV everyone.

    • SkyeStarfall@lemmy.blahaj.zone ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      The HPV strains that cause warts are not the same ones that cause cancer, AFAIK

      There are like dozens of different strains

    • FiniteBanjo@lemmy.today ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      All I’m saying it, it’s a lot more commonplace than fetishizing from ankle to knee. Those are the real freaks as far as society as a whole is concerned.

• mods_are_assholes@lemmy.world ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

  So I have an ex-friend that found out I’m into feet and WOULD NOT STOP harping on it for YEARS.

  Telling me how disgusting it was, how much of a deviant it made me. At every fuckdamn opportunity. Making flat jokes that no one but him laughed at.

  He was an ass eater, religiously, to the point it made some of his gfs uncomfortable.

  How is liking a nice shaped pair of feet more disgusting than literally sticking your tongue where people shit?

  why is the area near the hole more respectable than the area near the dirt? Who makes these rules and where do I file a complaint?

  source

  • iiGxC@slrpnk.net ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Dirt is dirty. The hole hopefully isn’t, in fact now that I think about it I would argue that a dirty/unhygienic hole fetish is more shameful than a clean foot fetish 🤔

    but not actually shameful, whatever people are into is fine as long as no one gets hurt, or they consent to getting hurt 🤷

      Actually that’s less due to your feet and more due to your pinky toe. Without it, you’d keep falling over.

      You’re normal, you’re just not usual. Also foot fetish is, like, the most standard fetish at this point.

      Plus which, feet can be sexy as hell.

    Yeah, I’m going to say that calves can be sexy (high heels are generally meant to accentuate them) and I find them more socially acceptable fetish wise than knees.

    • DharmaCurious@startrek.website ⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      I see a lot of jokes about knee fetish in this thread. I dated a dude with a knee kink. It was disconcerting at first, but being the enlightened, nonjudgmental being I am, I went with it. Wasn’t my thing at all, but honestly, the best word to describe it was inoffensive. He mostly just wanted to rub them, and occasionally get kneed in bed. Very meh experience.

    Calves and thighs should be greener tgan knees and feet.

    The toes should be a lighter red than the rest of the foot, and the heel should be a darker red.
