Sexual attraction towards feet is a fairly common kink among men. Doctors see this all the time in their clinics.
People have worshipped feet since ancient times. Philostratus, the second century Greek writer has written “love letters” to express his desire for naked feet.
“Why don’t you always walk barefoot?...Let nothing come between your naked foot and the earth,” reads a letter he wrote. The lover then goes on to rhapsodize on the perfect shape of his beloved’s feet, comparing them to “new and strange flowers sprung from the earth.”
Sigmund Freud, the father of psychoanalysis, as always, had his
theories on why some people developed foot fascination.
His explanation: (whether you agree with him or not) feet looked a lot like penises. (Philostratus, by the way, was bisexual. His love letters were addressed to both men and women.)
Modern medical science offers a more convincing explanation for this. According to VS Ramachandran, the Indian-American neuroscientist and director of the Center for Brain and Cognition, US, foot fetishism is a result of neurological cross-wiring.
In other words, areas that control both the genitalia and the feet are located next to each other in the brain. So it’s easy for a person to develop sexual interest in feet too.
