Surely you know the scene where Salma Hayek dances on the table in "From Dusk till Dawn" while you lick Quentin Tarentino schnapps off your feet. What many people don't know in that case: Tarentino himself is in charge of the script and openly admits he thinks feet are hot. But what exactly is behind a foot fetish?
Anyone who has ever wanted to sell shoes second hand might have made the acquaintance of a foot fetishist. And there are also countless stories about people being offered money for giving someone worn shoes or socks.
What is behind this behaviour? How can a naked foot or stinky nylon tights cause sexual arousal? Here are the most important facts about foot fetish.
What is a fetish?
Everyone has his or her own preferences during sex. In a sexual fetish an inanimate object is sexualized, for example lacquer and leather or even unusual objects of everyday life can become the focus of a fetishist.
What is a foot fetishist?
For a foot fetishist - quite obvious - the foot is the object of desire. By the way, the technical term for the foot fetishist is podophilia. And for those who smile at this kind of desire and consider it extremely freaky, it should be said that there are many followers of foot fetishism.
For example, cult director Quentin Tarantino. If you pay attention to this, you will also discover a striking number of scenes in his films with bare feet, dressed feet or, as in "Pulp Fiction", with conversations about foot massages. In any case, a taboo subject looks different.
And even if there are not very resilient figures, one can say that foot fetishism is probably the most common fetish after the fetish around lacquer and leather. The demand on the net speaks volumes and the market with socks, shoes or worn fishnet tights is booming.
The different variants of the foot fetish
There are several different types of foot fetishism. On the one hand it is more about packaging, be it pedicured feet, feet in high heels or nylons or worn shoes and stockings. On the other hand it is about interaction with the lust object foot. Be it smelling, tasting, touching or sucking (toe sucking).
So sometimes it is about the foot itself, sometimes only about what has touched it and changed it, i.e. nylons or shoes that were worn and are then felt as arousing.
Many foot fetishists get excited especially when the feet are actively involved in love play. This can be the mere sight of the feet, but also a foot job. In other words, a sex act in which the partner satisfies the fetishist with his or her feet - in a toe job this is only done with the toes.
Others get totally turned on when they can suck or smell the object of their desire, or when they can massage and tickle the foot. Also popular: the Shoejob, where the shoes are more in the foreground.
But there are also tougher ones: for example, when the partner runs his feet over the body of the fetishist (trampling). Or in the field of SM the foot is also often used as a sign of dominant behaviour, for example when the Dom walks over the Sub's head and through the face with his foot or when the Sub licks the Dom's feet and thus humiliates himself.
Another variation of the foot fetish: Crunching. Here, food is crushed with the bare feet, often also to eat the crushed food afterwards.
Not everybody has to find it cool, but in the end it is true: No matter which variant is considered hot, as long as both parties agree and can enjoy their fantasy, there is nothing wrong with this fetish.
Why feet? This is what science says.
It's mostly men who succumb to the foot fetish. And scientific studies have shown that the connection between sexual arousal and feet is not as totally absurd as it might seem to some outsiders.
Because according to science, the brain areas of the toes and feet and the genitals are close together. And so, as the Indian neurologist Vilayanur S. Ramachandran found out, there is sometimes an overlapping of stimuli and stimulation of both areas in the brain.
In addition, small feet in women are considered a guarantee for fertility because they are said to be a sign of high oestrogen levels. This is also a reason why men fly on women's feet. And perhaps also a reason why many women make an effort to show off their feet thanks to pedicures, painted toenails, fishnet stockings and high heels.
So the next time you meet someone who is totally into feet, you should think twice before you smile at them. Especially since even good old Goethe is said to have asked his beloved in a letter to send him a pair of her danced-through shoes, so that he still has something to think about her.
Foot cult in ancient China: no longer ok
Not necessarily a form of fetish, but a form of foot cult is anything but okay. We are talking about the beauty ideal of the lotus foot in ancient China. There, women's feet with a length of just ten centimetres were considered the absolute ideal. And in order to achieve this, young girls were done bad things to.
Right up until the early 20th century, her feet were broken, her toes were tied down and her feet were bandaged so that they would grow as little as possible. The result of this cruel procedure can hardly be seen, it is that bad.
