I also really don't get the whole feet thing, I tried to understand but I just couldn't see.
I dont hate them or anything but to me they're a part that just doent really matter at all like an elbow or some other random body part but hey whatever floats your boat.
From what I understand, it has to do with how the body parts are mapped in the brain. The part of the brain which controls the feet is next to the part which controls the erogenous zones. In some people there's a bit of cross wiring, which causes the person to view feet as erogenous. So like you said, it is just a random body part.
I've heard this too, but wouldn't this mean that those people with the cross wiring have erogenous feet themselves, rather than finding other peoples' feet sexually attractive?
Either way, as someone who has nothing to do with feet at all, I find this absolutely fascinating and I wonder if any other fetishes stem from this cross wiring thingy.
That's an interesting theory (about the crossed wires). It made me question something a bit off-topic. If it truly is a simple matter of "cross-wiring," then maybe that would explain why some people are sexually attracted to feet, underage children, members of the same sex, being degraded, etc. And yes, I know that those are all RANDOM fetishes, but I specifically was thinking of some that are controversial. I think it's pretty cool if it actually is caused from the way your brain is set up. If we could only find some form of hard evidence for this, maybe people could start accepting one another more freely!
