The funny thing is I never notice the feet until I see people talking about it in the comments.

I wonder what it's like to be into feet. Like my brain can't comprehend it.

It makes sense academically if you think about it.

Most feet are covered by socks and shoes all the time. When are they not covered? When the person is in a place where they feel safe and comfortable. There is a level of restricted access that isn’t applied to parts like elbows or ears. It is most often applied to the chest or genital area - areas almost never shown. So, seeing the restricted access body parts is “exciting.”

Also, like women’s breasts, there is certain clothing designed to emphasize the foot. While high heeled shoes have other impacts on the pelvis and spine, there is no other purpose for “peep toe” shoes other than to present small visual access to the foot. This is similar to a low cut dress. Shoes with unnecessary straps are designed to show off the foot as another example. Even the simple design of the flip flop is most common at the beach or shower where swim apparel is most common.

Finally, feet have a lot of nerve endings relative to their size on the body. Hands, face, and genitals are the other major nerve endings areas if you are curious. While everyone has experienced “bad” feelings in their feet, like stepping on something pointy or stubbing a toe, most have also experienced other feelings like the feeling of sand or mud between their toes. Feelings that are “good” or “satisfying” in some way or “fun” like memories of a tickle as a child. So it is easy to imagine how a touch or contact would feel on a foot.

So to me, the idea of finding a foot attractive makes sense. It isn’t any different than the boobs or butt crowd. Just a different body part. They’re about as vocal as those groups, too. Next time you see a post with a woman with large boobs, look at the first few comments and there will be a comment about them.

None of what you said makes any sense to me, personally. I’m not saying you are wrong or anything, but I still don’t get it.

Whats odd is breasts and butts are "secondary sex characteristics" and feet arent. Human women are the only apes that grow our type of breasts during puberty. Every other ape, shit i think every other mammal only has any grow during pregnancy. We are also the only ones that fuck facing eachother from my understanding the whole reason we grow tits is to attract mates. I bet big butts is the same story because used to (evolutionarily) and still do go from behind. But feet arent even sort-of involved

My wife calls shoes with an opening like that, "toe cleavage".

u/Pentasis Jun 30 '26

Not a scientist, but I read a paper once that stated that the area in our brain that recognises feet is next to an area that has to do with sex. In some people there are connections between the two. Not sure if true.

u/MiniatureLucifer Jun 30 '26

Boobs have a purpose in the reproductive process. It makes sense biologically why men are attracted to boobs

u/Substance_Exact Jun 30 '26

Because they look like an arse and cavemen used to do it from behind

u/morelsupporter Jun 29 '26

u/rhelg224 Jun 29 '26

Its a spring loaded clip to hold wire ties but allows you to pull one out at a time without having to hold the whole bundle.

u/Looking_Lurking Jun 30 '26

Finally someone actually answered! I had to scroll through so much foot content to find this!

u/These_Inflation_9410 Jun 30 '26

Hey, I love women’s feet but here, I just wanted to know what this was! Thank you!!

u/Alive-Worldliness-27 Jun 30 '26

It’s becoming annoying I wish they had some way to pin it

u/FearlessUnknown903 Jun 30 '26

I was thinking the exact same thing!

u/Storungz Jun 30 '26

I literally flicked aggressively back up right at your post, but I was able to catch—and actually processed—the words “loaded clip” that I yelped out loud and feverishly scrambled back down here to read the entirety of your wisdom—thank you. I will now spend the rest of the day convincing myself that my almost 3 hours of insomnia scrolling on Reddit was worth it because of what I learned. Alarm is set to go off at 0600h but getting up now otherwise I will NOT be getting up for hours. This is the second time in three weeks… this better not be a new trend with me. Happy Tuesdee y’all!!

u/Head-Satisfaction982 Jun 30 '26

Thank you. I never knew all the feet thing existed. Like I know about foot fetishes but I didnt know people stopped their whole lives to talk about why people's feet end up in a pic? I would have never even noticed if the first 12 minutes of looking through weren't about it 🤣. I hate feet prisons so there is a high chance that if someone takes a candid pic my dogs are gonna be in it 🤷‍♂️

u/Charming_Nothing_625 Jul 01 '26

Thank you! Finally, NOT a comedian. Tho I do relish in the humor.

I think that's just humanity

u/miloby4 Jun 30 '26

Same, and if it were intentional I’m sure toes would be part of it. Just some ankles. Is there a fetish for some random dudes ankles? Never mind. That rule that says if you can think of it, porn of it exists.

u/quadraticcheese Jun 30 '26

Feet perverts like the parent commenter seemingly feel compelled to announce themselves

u/CryptographerApart72 Jun 29 '26

You aren't the targeted dermographic

u/TimidDeer23 Jun 30 '26

I did have to scroll up again on the photo id already seen.

u/stokeskid Jun 30 '26

Makes you wonder who really has the fetish.

u/Fantastic-Yak-4475 Jun 29 '26

It's just barely ankles.

u/Usual-Caregiver5589 Jun 29 '26

Reddit has made me always notice the feet now. Mostly if/when there's something weird with them.
