    You are the first person other than my boyfriend that I've ever told this to. I have a foot fetish. Is it normal? I'm not a toe sucker or anything, I just like to rub and caress the soles of his feet like I do the rest of him.

    It's normal to me...I have a fetish for bellies. I like to rub and caress bellies. If your boyfriend likes it, why question it? :grin:

    Who cares if it's 'normal' or not? You enjoy it, your man enjoys it, and what you're into is neither unsafe nor hurting anyone. Other than that, what else matters?

    Personally, I'm of the view that the word 'normal' is highly overrated.

    No.



    Actually, I only say this because I am a very ticklelish person and hate it for someone to touch my toes or foot. Other than that, I think it's a common fetish. Now, if it's something involving bodily waste, I will raise an eyebrow.

    Yes, but I might be biased because I also have a foot fetish :grin:

    I have a foot fetish something fierce. Not to suck them either, as I think skin usually tastes pretty gross, and foot skin probably way worse. But I do love looking, and occasionally touching. If I can see somebody's feet I instantly think they're a lot more vulnerable and attractive looking. Unless of course they're heinous, but I'm not talking about that lol.

    I think it's pretty common. I have one myself (of the toe-sucker variety, but I'm super picky :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:), so don't feel weird about it. :slight_smile:

    I guess i just thought it was creepy, as that's like the first thing I notice about guys. When I met my BF, the very first thing that caught my eye was that he had flip flops on. I just kinda thought it was pathetic and creepy.

    I personally don't have one, but back when I dated guys I was with someone that had one. I don't have any problem with it and I would say it is perfectly normal to like feet. After all, everyone has certain things they like about the body.

    I have mild mild footphobia, so to me it is always hard for me to wrap my brain around people who do enjoy feet. Though, I know they exist out there, hence the posters in this thread. Someone has to enjoy them, right? :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    I once had a friend who had a very severe phobia of feet. It was actually pretty funny because she'd get super grossed out at the slightest glimpse of toes. Kinda made it hard to wear sandals.

    As for the OP - who cares if it's normal! It's such a silly concept. But if you are wondering, foot fetishes are one of the most common types. I think you're fine :thumbsup:

    I think feet are very sexy as long as they're taken care of properly.

    I've got a foot phobia and a foot fetish. I either absolutely love them or absolutely detest them - there's (almost) no middle ground.

    Aye, so does it depend on the person/feet then? Or is it more of a "today I like feet/today I don't" ?

    Foot fetishes are really common, I have an armpit fetish, the hairier the better, now that's weird and it always freaks out the guys I'm with, hahaha.

    It depends on the person. Usually it comes down to how 'meaty' they are - I don't like big flat thick ones at all.

    My understanding is that there's a theory that the part of the brain that processes sexual arousal is very close to the part of the brain that perceives or processes images of feet (or something of that nature) and so there is apparently some sort of cross-wiring that apparently is pretty common.

    As fetishes go, a foot fetish is probably one of the least, uh, unacceptable or harmful fetishes one could have. I wouldn't stress about it.

    My knowledge of it is that the 'sex' part of the brain and the 'foot' part of the brain are in the same location, but opposite hemispheres.
