Your Ultimate Foot Fetish Guide: Foot Worship, Foot Jobs And Facts

 

What’s the number one thing you look for in a partner? You might go for someone with a good sense of humour. You might love a bit of dirty talk, or someone who talks with their hands. Maybe someone with a big honking pair of… calves. Or maybe you’re into someone with cute little toes. Someone with a lateral arch that goes all the way to heaven. Someone packing a beefed-out abductor hallucis (if you know, you know). Even though there’s still a bit of a stigma, being into feet is completely healthy and normal.

One of the most common fetishes for a body part is that of the foot fetish – 47% of people who have a fetish for a particular body part even prefer feet! Both Elvis Presley and Andy Warhol were said to have a foot fetish, so you’re in good company if a pair of feet does it for you.

Whether the foot fetishist in your life is a longtime partner or first-time hookup, there are lots of different things you can do with your feet to excite them. Here’s a guide to thrilling someone who worships feet—specifically, yours.

 

What is a foot fetish?

Firstly, let’s define “fetish”. In simple terms, it’s an attraction to something – body types, body parts, objects, etc – that causes sexual arousal.

A foot fetish, scientifically known as podophilia, is when someone is sexually aroused by feet. Not every foot fetishist is turned on solely by the sight of bare feet. A person with a foot fetish may also be interested in or attracted to:

• Particulars about the feet (foot size, long toes vs. short toes, high arches, sole shape, painted toenails, etc.)
• Foot jewelry (toe rings, anklets, foot tattoos and other markings)
• Foot odor
• Foot treatments (foot massage, pedicures and foot baths, for example)
• Shoes (sandals, high heels and stilettos, flip flops)
• Shoe jobs(which is when shoes are used to create sexual stimulation — high heels included)
• Hosiery (socks, tights, pantyhose, etc.)
• Sensory interaction (licking, rubbing, kissing, biting, and smelling the foot, as well as licking and sucking the toes)
• Foot jobs and toe jobs (which is when a person uses his or her feet to stimulate a penis and cause orgasm)
• Foot worship, which is when most sexual emphasis is placed on the feet
• Foot slave, which is when a partner submits to the foot fetish desires of her or her partner

Any of these things — including just the mere sight of feet — can lead to orgasm.

 

 

How to approach a foot fetish in a relationship;

For Foot Fetishists

 It’s important to be honest and direct with your partner about what turns you on, but that doesn’t mean it has to be scary. Help your partner get excited about foot fetishism by initially suggesting “socially acceptable” foot play activities like foot massage and light foot kissing. From there, who knows what could happen!

 

Questions to get the conversation going:

What kind of foot play do you like?

Is foot play more of an appetizer (foreplay) or the main dish (a means to climax)?

What would you like to try and when?

Do you want me to reciprocate?

 

For Partners of Foot Fetishists

Don’t be scared or assume that your partner is a “freak” because of his or her fascination with feet. As mentioned above, having a foot fetish is actually quite common, and it can be a safe and healthy way to further explore your sexuality as an individual and as a couple. Try slowly stepping into the world with small actions like wearing high heels during intimacy, giving or accepting foot massages and sending your partner photos of your feet. He or she will no doubt fall over head over heels with you for your efforts.

 

Tips Tips Tips;

Foot anatomy

Foot massages feel good for a reason. Feet are superhighways of nerve endings — scratching the bottom of your foot likely feels way more intense than scratching your elbow. This could explain why feet can play a role in sensual pleasure.

 

Power play

You’ve likely heard of BDSM. The D and S stand for dominance and submission. Feet can be a part of that kinky power dynamic. Some people get off on foot worship or being used as a footstool. These are just a few of the many fun forms of being dominated.

 

It feels good to be bad

A lot of cultures treat feet with disgust. That “dirtiness” might make feet feel like forbidden fruit. And taboos can be hot AF.

Domination is the not-so-distant cousin of humiliation. People with humiliation-type foot fetishes may engage in foot play that feels demeaning. This could be your partner rubbing your face with their feet or walking on you.

 

Options galore

If you dig feet, you may also enjoy foot accoutrements (e.g., nail polish, anklets, toe rings). High heels and different types of socks and hosiery also have a dedicated fan base.

On the other hand, there are purists who prefer an unadorned foot. That’s cool, too, because variety is the sexy spice of life.

 

Show your shoes some affection

Shoe fetishes are often linked with foot fetishes. If you want to try shoe play on for size, start experimenting with kissing or licking your partner’s shoes. If you’re both comfy with it, you can take things to the next level

PSA: Clean shoes are definitely recommended.

 

Photo-ready feet

Nudes get a lot of attention. Maybe it’s time to give foot photos some love. If your partner has a foot fetish, dip your toe into the kinky waters and start sending them foot pics. Don’t be afraid to get creative with accessories and different kinds of footwear.

 

All hail feet

If your partner has a foot fetish, they might take pleasure in worshipping your little piggies. Using your partner as a footrest is a fun sub/dom activity. Or rub your feet up their legs and work your way to the end zone.

 

It’s not a job if you love it

If you’re ready to level up your foot fetish game, it might be time for a “foot job.” That’s when you rub your foot against your partner’s genitals. Or you can try some kind of penetration (vaginal or anal) if you’re both up for it.

If any kind of fancy footwork is on the table, make sure your feet are clean and your toenails don’t have any sharp edges. (Ouch.)

 

Put your foot in their mouth

Some folks enjoy kissing their partner’s feet or sucking their toes (aka shrimping). Given the sensitivity of the human foot, it’s quite the erotic sensation for the receiving party too. If you’re new to the game, start with some gentle kissing and work your way to shrimping.
