I know the text is a bit lengthy. Please, if necessary, read it when you have time. Feedback is absolutely important, as it concerns our lovely special fetish.
At first, let me thank Mistress Destiny for providing us with ‘shelter’ (her own forum) and ‘food’ (pictures, clips, stories and discussions produced within this forum). Obviously, what brings us all here – despite religious, cultural, racial and sexual differences – is foot fetishism in all its forms. We have learned to live with our fetish, explore it whenever possible and, hopefully, we are all at ease with our desires. We have seen numerous pictures depicting what we consider desirable, we have read countless fictional stories and true experiences and on certain occasions we have put our ‘techniques’ into practise. Although foot-fetishism – as yet another dimension of human relationships in a rather estranged world – has spread all over the world, unfortunately, it has yet to become a subject of scientific examination. After all, the question that still needs to be addressed is ‘why are we fascinated by female feet.’ Female feet are, of course, what has made us foot-fetishists. What we do not seem to know, however, is why are we foot-fetishists. Apparently, there are several interpretations and we will attempt to approach each and every different explanation. Our explanations can be traced within religious concepts, cultural issues, personality attributes and the differences between the two sexes. It is noteworthy, nevertheless, that this is my personal understanding of the task at hand and certainly not a scientific account. Finally, with regard to the background of the author, I am of Greek origin, located at a British university and have served females from Greece (6), Britain (3), Poland, Italy, Thailand, China and India.
Certain religions place huge emphasis on reincarnation. Such information could prove valuable to our study, regardless of our personal religious beliefs, as we may have been servants in a previous life! No matter how amusing you may find this argument, rest assured that we were not simply born as foot-fetishists. The weak point of this argument is that for being there too many of us, we must have all lived in times when slavery was practised extensively. Hence, the stories we read of males serving at the feet of a queen (usually Cleopatra is chosen for the role of the dominant female). The weakness of our argument emerges from the fact that we must have been reincarnated before – were we to accept this concept – and not merely appear again hundreds of years later. Unless, of course, we were lucky enough to become servants again, if not destined to serve at the feet of a female. The strong point of our hypothesis, nevertheless, is one that can easily overcome our previous problem. All our fantasies (foot and shoe-licking, us being used as footrests, trampling etc) were quite common in ancient times when, indeed, slavery existed. Simply enough, such fantasies define the mistress-slave relationship, just like they did back then though in actual terms, thus emphasising the notion of submission as an integral part of slavery. Oftentimes, I have thought of visiting a female (for obvious reasons) psychologist in an attempt to find a satisfactory interpretation of my fetish. Hypnosis, during a session with the psychologist, may reveal the dark secrets of our fetish and, perhaps, serving at the feet of the female psychologist may allow her to fully comprehend our desires and provide a better diagnosis of our submissive attitude. For those that did not develop their fetish because of certain events that took place during their life, this particular approach to understanding our fetish may satisfy their curiosity, although we have not exhausted all possible explanations. Anyway, as it is unethical to question a religion’s validity, we might as well endorse this aspect as a potential explanation of our desires.
Culture, too, can play a rather influential role. Within male-dominated societies it is only natural that males may seek for submission, while females will probably seize the opportunity of dominating a male – even though unwittingly. Oppressed females may take great pleasure from dominating a male by have him worship the lowest part of their body, their divine feet. Besides, we have all fantasised from time to time living in a society that would resemble that of the mythical Amazons, where we would be reduced to their slaves. In my personal encounters with the three Asian females, they all found it extremely interesting to have a male at their feet obeying their orders. The weak point of this argument is that culture is often so strongly in-printed in our personalities, in order to become socially acceptable, that any such deviation from the norms of our society may eventually isolate us. This risk generates fear that could restrain us from openly expressing ourselves, though this is not an issue of democracy being at gunpoint, thus the booming of professional mistresses’ business. Regardless of their valuable contribution to and understanding of our needs, one may find it absurd to pay for the privilege of grovelling before a female. This very fact proves that our fetish is not, yet, socially acceptable, therefore further downgrading our status as human beings when all we care for is to worship a female’s feet. In turn, culture may be related to our fetish, but also acts as a limit to it. Different cultures relate to different societies. This cultural divergence allows for academics in social science to differentiate between an ‘open’ society and a ‘closed’ one. ‘Open’ societies are, by definition, the western, democratic societies, with ‘closed’ societies representing the rest of the world. Within ‘open’ societies, where certain institutions like family and religion have lost their value, whereas competition of all types has increased, foot-fetish aspirations may be easier to fulfil. This may either be related to the fact that such societies can sustain a higher degree of immorality – if it is a moral issue – or simply because within ‘open’ societies you meet more ‘open-minded’ individuals that would be happy to accommodate our needs. After all, the Internet itself is a product of these societies. On the contrary, in ‘closed’ societies the risk of ‘getting caught’ may become a serious obstacle that only frustrates males of similar desires, but when possible to satisfy them the levels of adrenaline rise unexpectedly!
Personality attributes are easier to both comprehend as well as accept as a probable cause of our submissive behaviour. Myself, I am not submissive towards other men, but the same argument lacks substance when concerning females. Maybe we do perceive females as superior beings that deserve to be worshiped. Like our previous explanations, this has a weak point as well. To my understanding we are not always willing to serve just any female. We may have certain preferences with regard to race, age, external appearance and so on, which do not necessarily comply with the concept of submission. Either you are truly submissive and willing to serve at any female’s feet, or too selective to be classified as sumbissive. Moreover, it is usually us who set out the kind of services we are willing to provide. We have certain limits to what we may do and, depending on the individual, a foot-fetishist may not be willing to cross that line and offer undesirable services, like ‘human toilet’ for example. Such diverse angles of fetishism, just like pony-riding, are certainly associated with the concept of submission, but we must understand that they involve other fetishes. Although some foot-fetishists may have such desires – personally I do not mind being used as a pony as my mistress’ feet will not tire from walking – these practices are not inherent to foot-fetish. Therefore, submission can easily become a rather controversial issue that may be related to our background too (religion, culture, type of society).
Related to the above account is the issue of differences between the two sexes. As far as I am concerned we either worship females because we feel inferior to them (in terms of intelligence or capabilities), as already discussed, or because we wish to sing praises of their beauty. We probably consider them so beautiful that worshiping their feet may actually satisfy a foot-fetishist. Apparently, the word ‘may’ as used in the preceding sentence lacks credibility, since most, if not all of us, attain sexual satisfaction when worshiping at the feet of a female. So, is our fetish a mere gesture of adoration? If yes, there is nothing more romantic, healthy and even innocent, when compared to other sexual practices – here I may sound a bit conservative – like worshiping their clitoris or anus, which nowadays can have serious implications for our health, does not sound romantic and is not that innocent either. If this is the main reason we worship them, why is it so difficult for some people to understand our intentions? Likewise, we may be willing to serve them or else take extremely good care of them, as they are often considered in all societies as the weaker sex, in relative terms. We do not like to see them disappointed, exhausted or undervalued from every day’s life and we simply seek to elevate them, at least in our eyes, and make them feel better. The possibility that we wish to see them overjoyed, relaxed and overvalued by being at their feet cannot possibly be regarded as perverse. The exact opposite would, but then again I am a foot-fetishist and this is my understanding.
