    I watched End of Oak Street last night. Even though the characters learned that they are kinda trapped thier house, they all still kept their shoes and socks on. Found that interesting

    My take on feets: I don’t think about them in my fantasies or anything, but if they’re there IRL, they represent a further opportunity to add to the other person’s pleasure, so I’ll have a go on them. But I don’t get turned on by the act of licking soles in and of itself. I’ve never seen a pair of feet and thought “daaaaaaaaaaamn, those are some HOT feets!” no more than I’ve seen a garden fence and thought “burn down all other fences, 'cause THIS is the one!” Although, I’m sure I’ve seen plenty of feet that caused my neutrality to dip into disgust (like my own, for example). But beyond that, I don’t think about them at all. They’re just an extra button on my controller in the indecipherable non-localised Slavic RPG that is the female orgasm.

      Never have my thoughts been written down so accurately as right now 🤝. I can understand many other fetishes. Feet I just really struggle to comprehend. Not that that matters, more power to the foot fetishers etc.

    Whenever I think of foot fetishists I think of the anime character Rin Tohsaka, because of her name.

    “Watch your piggies, Rin Toe Sucker is coming!”

    Gotta love the footies. They’re harmless and locked in. At the rabbit hole that is sexual fetishes, they just hang around the entrance… looking down.

    I don’t think about feet at all, until a story like this pops up.

        I think we must have had very different experiences in life. I think the only fetish I ever hear about in the news in a ‘bad way’ is feet.

        In the past two or three decades, I want to say there have been at least one or two stories per year about some cop in the area letting people off of tickets if they’ll let the officer lick their feet. We have incredibly large furry conventions, anime conventions, tattoo conventions, reptile owner conventions, and probably more that touch on various kinks and fetishes, but you never hear about any of those sexual shenanigans in the news… so feet fetish folks finding themselves featured on frontline feeds frequently from the news is quite the contrast.

          Letting people off the hook in exchange for foot stuff an entirely different problem. I think the focus misplaced.

            Yeah, that’s an ACAB problem more than a footsie problem. This is a mathematical function that always resolve to the same constant : let police(x) a function that describes an action (x) that is done by multiple officers over many iterations, and we can say that police(x)= bastardry

            I haven’t gotten a ticket in years, but I think the absolute cheapest tickets are over $100, speeding will be somewhere between $180-300 depending on how much over you were going, and the really big boys like repeated no insurance or passing school busses can climb to $500-1000.

              I had a speeding ticket I couldn’t talk my way out of, what got dismissed because it was for 2 over the speed limit. Also dismissed tickets for not having insurance (apparently the card the insurance company sends you is not proof of insurance in Texas, at least according to this shitass I dealt with).

              Even though the tickets were dismissed, I still had to pay court fees. Which were for twice what the tickets were.

              Hence the saying, you can beat the charge but you can’t beat the ride.

                The fuck? How the hell is that not proof?

                Also, as someone who has also had to pay court fees over bullshit, it’s freaking ridiculous how our society lets that sort of thing happen.

          When i was in college, there were reports of people, who took their shoes off at the library while studying for midterms, putting their foot back in to find them filled with jizz.

          It happened enough we got a campus wide email that said to not take your shoes off in public spaces lol

            I mean taking your shoes off I can see, but leaving them unattended? Like no way I’m walking randomly around any public space even in just socks.

    Another poster said the commentor is talking about a youtuber named gabi belle, who afaik posts ZERO sexual content and even if she did that still wouldnt make her an object for your personal sexual satisfaction.

      The commenter said she posted that she wanted her score on the foot rating site to be higher, which seems like pretty clear consent to objectify her feet.

        Hate how you’re so upvoted because not only is your information third or fourth hand depending on perspective, you also outright believe it and knit your idea of consent around such weak thread.

        She’s joking, if anything this is a defeatist joke around the fact that she is nearly powerless when it cones to being objectified and sexualized without her consent, and the dark humor on display is very on brand. So the screenshotted comment, presumably a viewer of hers, should be familiar with her style of comedy and her struggles with being objectified and her likeness being misused.

        So that comment is by someone who either does the exact thing to her that she doesn’t want, or they are genuinely so porn pilled that they genuinely haven’t ever picked up on what she’s talking about and are only there to objectify and sexualize her.

        I would not have bothered to comment unless I knew enough about her, her content and the thoughts she shared surrounding these things, I suggest we all adopt this approach in the future.

          Uh, I posted her original tweet, literally first hand information.

          You can argue that it’s a joke, but when you literally go online and say “Please rate my feet higher”, you can’t be surprised when people take you at face value and do the thing you specifically asked for.

          When you make a post in a public space, you can’t expect everyone to know your lore. For example, my wife is a brown immigrant and I’ll make racist jokes to her about her ethnicity, which she laughs at because she knows I’m not racist and I’m punching at racism itself, not her race. But if I post those same jokes in public, people will assume I’m racist because they don’t have the context my wife does.

          If she made the joke in the middle of a stream with context, you’d have a point. But she didn’t, she made a standalone tweet, and even said “Please”. That reads as pretty unambiguous consent.

        Having watched Gabi, it was almost certainly a pretty obvious joke. Not surprising she blurred them, people are disgusting.

          Modern humans waste 99% of their lives trying to explain away the simple fact that humans are biologically designed to sleep, eat, and fuck(with hope that it leads to reproduction).

          Biology gives no fucks about our feelings, respect, or anything else.
