What Are Aspects of Foot Fetishes
Let’s explore in detail what aspects of feet fetishes people may find appealing.
Foot Shape and Size
For some people the size and shape of feet are the focal point. They associate small feet with femininity, while large feet create a clear sense of dominance. People may also find an arch as an attractive part of the foot. Toes may also contribute to the overall foot shape and size aspect, as people may feel drawn to straight or symmetrical toes. Whether nails are painted, natural, or adorned, they also play a significant role in the visual perception of feet.
Footwear (Heels and Stockings)
Heels and stockings can intensify the foot appeal as they contribute to pleasant visual and tactile feel as well as enhance an overall erotic potential.
Heels
High heels are a well-known fetish object, since they help emphasize the natural arch of the foot and the curve of the calf, creating a more appealing silhouette. For many people heels are the synonym for sensuality and femininity. Within dominant-submissive dynamics, heels may be used as an instrument to emphasize power and control over the submissive.
Stockings
When it comes to stockings, they are valued for creating intrigue while visually making legs slimmer and more appealing. Especially it functions well with latex stockings, as they perfectly blend elegance and edge. Thanks to a glossy surface, they catch the light in the right way drawing attention to the shape and structure of the foot and leg. Latex stockings in classic black or semi transparent colors may evoke a sense of luxury or seduction, as they perfectly complement a variety of erotic lingerie, including sets of bras and bikinis, corsets, belts, and harnesses. In addition to thigh-high stockings, people may love to see their partners in knee-high socks, which create a playful or youthful aesthetic.
Foot Bondage
Foot bondage is a part of a larger BDSM dynamics, which involves the elements of tying or restraining of feet by using shibari rope or wrist and ankle cuffs with chain connectors. When doing so people combine the visual and tactile appeal of feet with elements of control.
Foot bondage is all about accentuating the feet shape and the sense of vulnerability. However for some people the act of tying up the feet can be a way to express themselves as artists. Especially, when it comes to shibari ropes, allowing for experiments with ties, knots, patterns and positions. Foot bondage helps people get more pleasure and add variety to experiments to foot-related interests, including foot worship, tickling, or sensory play.
Foot Jewelry
People may find various accessories as powerful elements that create the allure of feet. These adornments may include toe rings known as powerful symbols of femininity and a perfect way to add an element of playful characters. Some people may find barefoot sandals especially attractive as their decorative straps or beading across the top of the foot contribute to the overall glamorous look. Foot jewelry may also feature sparkling gems, which for many can evoke sensuality, provide a unique tactile feel and visual stimulation.
Barefoot
This aspect of foot fetish is based on people’s ability to find beauty in feet in their full raw and natural state. The bare and exposed feet may draw people because of associations with freedom and connection with the earth. Barefoot people may be seen as more vulnerable within BDSM role-plays. People who are into barefoot fetish may feel excited when they see exposed contours of the arch, the alignment of the toes, or experience the smoothness of the skin. They may be aroused by the idea of removing shoes in public places, touching soft soles and rough calluses, or just feeling the natural warmth of feet.
Foot Scent and Texture
This aspect is based on people’s interest in the natural scent of bare feet, especially after activities like walking or exercise. The key point of this fetish is its primal element, as natural odours are all about a partner’s unique pheromones and interest in raw sensory experiences. Such people pay attention to how foot skin feels when it comes into contact with their own skin. They can get aroused by the smoothness of well-maintained feet or like to feel calluses and rough patches. They can also get pleasure from experiencing sweaty feet during touch or foot worship.
Foot Play
Foot play may feature various interactions, such as a foot massage with an accent on tactile connection, kisses to tease partners during foreplays, toe-sucking and licking to add more stimulation and increase the dynamics of the game. People with foot play fetish can actively involve tickling as an element of light-hearted interaction. Alternatively they can become more creative and add acts of stroking or play with a soy wax candle, creating patterns on the partner’s skin with dripping wax to intensify sensations.
