A question regarding foot fetishism in relation to tickling.

[Lee Ishler]

From what I gather, women are creeped out by guys with foot fetishes. However, if a girl is a lee, and likes being tickled, especially on her feet, wouldn't that mean she would like having her feet kissed or licked too? Because having her feet licked I think would tickle anyway. In fact I was with a girl once, I was licking her soles, and she said, "Let's feel those teeth," so she no doubt liked the feeling of my teeth running down her soles, she didn't laugh but my guess is it probably tickled, and she must've liked it, since she asked me to do it. How much she was into tickling, I never found out, but I was wondering if any women here, who are lees, like guys who are into feet, for this reason, or, if you're a guy, have you been with any female lees who like being tickled in this way?

My guess is, yes. Then does that mean women who like being tickled don't mind guys with foot fetishes? Or are they still creeped out by the whole thing anyway?

Also I should add that, someone who likes to do this, that is, tickle someone's soles with their tongue, does not necessarily have to have a foot fetish. It wouldn't be any different than tickling someone the same way on any other part of their body.

I think it's too black and white to think of it that way. I say that with a bit of hypocrisy, as my natural inclination is to do the same thing with many concepts. But, yes, some women are creeped out by the subtlest deviations from normalcy, but many are open minded to a lot of things much wilder than foot kinks. Several women (certainly not to speak for all) have explained to me that guys with a foot fetish often come off as creepy, less to do with their interest in feet, and more to do with how creepy the guy makes it. Sometimes it comes off as obsessive, sometimes overly objectifying, sometimes entitled, etc. I personally think that a lot of foot fetishists hold a lot of awkward behaviors from feeling weird about their kink, and that makes interactions around it feel inorganic to others. Honestly, I get that same feeling a lot from foot fetishists, and I have a kink for feet myself.

Outside of creepy behavior factor, there's a lot of women who enjoy aspects of their partner being into feet, regardless of whether they enjoy being tickled. Many women like to be adored, and if approached respectfully, take it as complimentary. Many women enjoy sensations on their feet outside of tickling, finding it pleasurable or sometimes even sexually stimulating. Conversely, some women are completely grossed out by feet, are very self conscious of their own, or just hate being touched there. Every person is different and you really have to treat it that way.

For most who are into it, a lot of it comes down to whether or not the guy only seems interested in her feet. I often say that a lot of foot fetishists come off as seeing a woman as a cute pair of feet with an inconveniently attached body. It's not like women don't understand what it's like to be attracted to a body part or have a kink. I think how someone feels about others' kinks much more often lies in the connection and the feeling of the experience.

You gather incorrectly. Women are creeped out by creepy men, regardless of what kinks they hold.

I see. Yes that definitely makes sense, to be into the fetish to such an extent that you exclude other aspects. I'm not that way, but if other guys who are into feet are, then yes, that's definitely weird, and would not be conducive to a healthy sexual relationship. For me personally, it's just one more thing that I like; any sexual relationship I've been in, I think it's the whole thing in general that takes over, and someone's feet would only be one small part of the overall experience. And yes, from what I've experienced, women can be receptive to that kind of attention, or simply let it be known they're not into it.

However, what about women who are into tickling, and like being tickled? Are they more appreciative of it? That is, someone using their tongue as a tickling tool on their feet? And I wouldn't think you'd need to have a foot fetish to want to do that.

Thanks for your input.

Oh I see. Yes I definitely understand. I think I'm going by things I've read in the past, possibly in this forum. So yeah, if you're creepy to begin with, and you have this "thing" in addition to that, I guess that would add to the overall creepiness.

I wouldn't want to come across that way. Like Wicked Touch says, a lot of foot fetishists come off as seeing a woman as a cute pair of feet with an inconveniently attached body. No, that's not me! Most women I've been with, I didn't even tell them about it. It's something I'd only expose a bit later down the line, and even then it all depends on how open minded they are.

That's part of what I was trying to convey–How they feel about anything is completely individualized, just like for anyone. Some women ticklees do not want their feet touched at all, while others prefer it as the spot to be focused on–and there is every possibility in between. From my completely anecdotal experience, more female ticklees like to be tickled on their feet in some capacity than don't. When you bring the licking into it, I imagine it shaves that down a bit, but I don't know by how much. The best way to know is to ask the specific women you will be playing with how they feel about it.

Thanks for your input.

You are very welcome.

Makes sense.

To me there's one solution to all of this; wrapping our cocks with feathers and then fucking feet. It's only creepy if you're staring.

Not sure what to say to that, other than, I wouldn't want to do it, that creeps me out. Even without staring.

Sounds sensitive.

Unreliable narrators. This place is full of creepy people who are unwilling to self-reflect.

As a producer I've been dealing with the foot/tickling fetish communities and women in a foot fetish context for like fifteen years now, and as a foot guy myself since the day my puberty circuit engaged (I'm old), I can say with 100% certainty that although not all women are into feet or feet guys, foot fetishists are definitely their own worst enemy when it comes to this stuff.

I don't know how you act in real life but you use punctuation and don't call them "females", so you're already a step up from the rest.

Thanks for the compliment! Like I think I said earlier, it's not something I've told all women I've been with about, and it's not of the utmost importance either, not when the sexual experience as a whole makes up for a silly fetish such as this. So hopefully I don't come across as creepy. No, I think my main reason for asking, was in the context of tickling, particularly a female lee ( oh no, there's that word), I mean, a WOMAN who is a lee, and likes being tickled on her feet. And yes, with a tongue, which I don't think is unusual, since I've seen several videos with this scenario. And I asked because, even though I've been into tickling for a long time, I've yet to meet a woman who is into it, not really anyway, not in the same way us TMF members are. But seems you already answered my question regarding this, and as I said, it does make sense, and it's something I pretty much already determined...that it depends, it's an individual thing. But it's always good to hear someone else's opinion, so thanks again!

You're going to find some women who do like it, some who don't, its an individual preference as so many things are as someone else here said, it's not a black and white thing. And as someone else said, women are creeped out by creepy behavior regardless of if kink is involved or not

The foot fetish is fairly common among fetishes generally. It is also a short walk to connect a foot fetch with a tickle fetish.

But I digress. This audience knows well the siren call of the marriage of the foot and tickle fetishes. As others have remarked, the “creep” element comes out how one handles any fetish in various life situations.

The obsessive fetishist often faces some resistance from those who may be the object of the fetish desire. In this thread, those would be women.

If, on the other hand, one holds the fetish in perspective and does not bring it out for air before, like a fine wine, its time, the acceptance rate may go up.

I’m part of the foot-tickling club, and have experienced women teasing me with their peds (think of the shoe danglers) My experience is not comprehensive, and the percentage of all women I’ve known who were up for foot- tickle fetish was smallish, but when we clicked, it was/is wonderful.

I’ve rarely met a woman who didn’t enjoy a foot massage. A simple way to indulge a foot fetish without uttering the word fetish. True, licking, biting, and other desires may need a bit more relationship building. Nothing is impossible.

Unfortunately, the popular media like to generalize the foot fetish guy as standard Hollywood creepy guy casting.

Funny, I didn't even know that foot fetishism was even portrayed in the popular media, but I haven't looked at any mainstream or Hollywood media for a while. Though yes, I'm not surprised that it's portrayed in such a way.

Yes I agree that the whole "creepiness" thing would be determined by how one handles the fetish. In my case, I don't even let anyone know about it. But if I were to meet a woman who likes being tickled, I think the foot fetish aspect (I have seen the word, "lickle" used in tickling videos, and acted out a lot, though this seems to be primarily F/F) would be somewhat more acceptable, especially if they liked being tickled in that area. But of course it would be up to the individual. Feet seem to be a favorite spot anyway with tickling enthusiasts, and it doesn't seem you need to have a foot fetish to partake in it. And not that I'd exclude other areas either.

Thanks for your input.

That makes sense. Maybe what I saw written in the past, about people with foot fetishes being creepy, was how those people expressed or presented it. I think for me, it would make the LER aspect of tickling someone's feet that much more exciting. But then first I'd have to find someone who likes being tickled, because tickling in itself is no doubt creepy to the mainstream public too, same as a foot fetish is.

I have tickled a few women, and I found it can be stimulating to them, if done in the right way. Whereas others I've tickled let it be known right off the bat that they didn't like it, so fair enough. So yeah, like you and everyone here says, it depends on who you're dealing with. Thanks for your reply.
