Do you like feet?

by sharleen wl 

clean feet or dirty feet? what about stinky feet? <giggles> i feel kinda naughty asking these questions. i've met plenty of guys online and in real life who are into feet, and they particularly like girl's dirty feet. ya, this is mostly a guy thing although there are a few girls who also like feet. i'm personally not one of them although i admit feet can be attractive just like any other part of your body like eyes, nose, lips, and even hands. but to me attractive feet are clean ones. 

i used to prefer having clean feet, especially during my early barefooting days when i was still living with my parents. part of it was due to the influence of my mom who is a clean freak and told me to wash my feet every time prior to entering the house, but also like i said earlier clean feet are more attractive (to me at least). today i no longer care as much. i let my bare feet stay dirty for a long time, especially that i live in an apartment by myself and there's no place to wash them outside. i mean they only get washed when i take a shower which is not every day (don't ask me how often 😅).

ok, getting back to foot fetishism. i recently discovered an interesting piece of information. there's actually a possible neuroscientific mechanism for it. the brain region associated with sensory processing of the feet is adjacent to that of the genitals and therefore, there's a possible crosslinking (cross wiring) of those areas. in other words, stimulation of the feet is similar to stimulation of the sexual organs.

it can also be a learned thing. like when someone is in puberty and is easily aroused sexually, they might see an attractive girl who is barefoot, and they might then associate bare feet with being sexy.

there's also the novelty factor, especially in western civilization where the feet are covered most of the time. like many people wear shoes or at least socks even at home. very rarely do others see their bare feet. so feet become semi-private body parts which are only seen during intimate moments. 

what about dirty feet? this is quite interesting as there's yet another factor involved here. i don't think it's the dirt itself that makes them attractive. dirty feet have become associated with going barefoot outside the house especially in public which is taboo in many places. breaking taboos/social norms or being rebellious is a turn-on for some people. especially when its a young and beautiful girl doing it. if it was an old/unattractive person, it would probably have the exact opposite effect, i.e. be a turn-off.

so now the big questions are: is it wrong/bad to have a foot fetish? do you need to suppress it or seek therapy? the answer is No to both questions as long as you don't break any law or behave negatively in any way. its perfectly ok to have diverse sexual interests/preferences just like being LGBTQ as long as you don't go around assaulting or harassing people.

the above statement may sound contradictory to what i said/did in some of my previous posts, and even the very first part of this post where i might have come off as making fun of those who are into feet. if i offended anyone i apologize. it wasn't my intention. my previous reactions were based on how those guys behaved, like making it so obvious and like they were so obsessed with it.

so if you're into feet you should actually learn to embrace and even appreciate it (since it gives you another way to enjoy life 😍) instead of rejecting it/believing its abnormal as long as it doesn't harm anyone including yourself. just like regular sexuality, you should practice moderation and not let it become an obsession. you should seek professional help only if it causes you distress or you experience any negative effects.

ok, enough of me being the psychoanalyst of the day 😀. i'm going to end this post in a fun way. a guy friend of mine once said that people (particularly girls) who go barefoot or even wear flip flops actually like/want to show off their sexy feet. its just like women wear revealing clothes to show their attractive bodies. he also said that flip flops are like bikinis for the feet, and he bemoans the fact that they're kind of going out of style now.

so do you agree with any of what he said? i personally think there's some truth to it. it applies to at least some people. i mean there are a number of reasons people enjoy going barefoot/wearing flip flops, and one of them might be what he said above <giggles>

from paradise hawaii this is sharleen the barefoot girl reminding you that life is magical. and if you like feet its probably extra magical for you especially now that summer is around the corner 😄. so until next time let's make it a magical day and remember bare feet rule. fuck yeah!
