crusty heels!

[maniactickler]

I am shocked by the huge number of women with dry, crusty heels. women, is it that hard to spend 5 minutes a night to lotion your feet for gods sakes! nothing turns me off faster than a woman with crusty heels. seems like almost half of all the women i see out there have this problem. i feel like going up to them and handing them a bottle of lotion. im aslmost glad the warmer weather is gone. hide those feet in boots ladies! blah!

 

[natural tickler]

I couldn't agree more, my friend😀

 

[featherfingers]

Dry weather conditions will do it every time, especially if the lady wears sandals alot. A good pumice stone will help take care of that problem. Put lotion on the feet, followed by cotton socks and tennis shoes... and the feet should be silky smooth in no time. A good pedicure works wonders, too.

 

[Marauder]

So basically everybody is responsible to take care of themselves so they can measure up to our personal standards and serve as perfect fodder for sexual arousal? Glad to know! The whole world should consist of only me and anorexic gothpunks with flawless and highly ticklish feet. The rest of the world: kindly go on a self-destructive diet, change your attire, change your sex (if male and not androgynous looking) and prostrate yourself before me.

I mean, really. "Crusty heels"? Good heavens, that's a low blow. People are defined by more than their feet, and callouses are only ugly for a very specific demographic... most people don't exactly study womens' feet with that much attention to detail. It's not the responsibility of the populace to appeal to anyone but themselves, so if they decide that they don't want extra-special soft feet, it's their call. They probably don't want to score a foot fetishist. Their loss.

There are also people for whom this is a medical condition. Folks with diabetes and similar medical ailments tend to have problems such as this with their feet, and it's a recurring problem, far beyond what lotion and a pumice stone alone can manage. It requires prescription meds and frequent expensive trips to the podiatrist that's often not covered by insurance.

Are you sure this is the only demographic you'd like to insult while you're being so openly crass?

Use your whapper on him, Meems😛 LMAO

 

[featherfingers]

Mimi's right. I overlooked the fact that some people suffer from viruses and medical conditions that can't be remedied very easily with lotions, pumice stones, etc. I'm sure those ladies possess other qualities that are desirable. I dated a lady whose soles resembled fish scales. Yes, it was hard to get used to but as I got to know her I found her to be a wonderful friend who had a lot of positive aspects... and she was ticklish in places I wouldn't have dreamed of or discovered if I had been fixated "solely" on her feet.

 

[TicklishSinner]

geez, this thread was kinda hard, I mean my mom is diabetic real bad and she had crusty heels, but nothing she can do about it since she has to be careful with her feet, but its not like she likes haveing feet like that i mean wow some people cant control it no need to judge them on what their heels look like

 

[maniactickler]

while im sure there is a tiny percentage of people with medical conditions, for the majority, its just lack of care. but what the heck, its just feet. its only a part of your body. and for me personally, if a woman has a really bad case of crusty heels, looks or personality would make no difference to me. that would be too much of a turn off to me.

 

[TklDuo-Ann]

Now that is a true foot fetish, if that would overrule everything else. Aside from medical conditions, there is also the fact that many women go barefoot or wear flip flops, etc. (many for the sake of guys like you who enjoy feet). When you're doing that in hot weather, it's rather difficult to keep them soft and silky as you'd like. I personally pumice (at least every other day) and lotion every night and, while not exactly "crusty", I have spots that show the wear from the constant friction. Just curious....What kind of shape are your feet in? Do you take as good care of your feet as you'd like us to do for you?

I do absolutely nothing to my feet. but im lucky enough to have nice feet where i dont need to do anything. they are soft as silk! my feet are nicer than alot of womens feet i see out there. :O

 

[kis123]

Geez, I'm glad the men in my life aren't as picky as some on this board! We'd all like to have perfect feet, but some of us simply don't. Some of us have medical conditions, work two jobs, have no job to spend money on pedicures, have other things in life to concern ourselves with than simple DRY SKIN ON OUR HEELS!!!

I've made several exceptions with men such as foot odor, cracked heels, and musky odors in other places. I made the exceptions because some people can't help themselves. My feelings for them extended beyond the physical appeareance of things. I think I benefitted from my approach. Do whatever pleases you!

Maybe you could learn to give pedicures or foot treatments to some young ladies. You'd certainly make a whole lot of friends!

Kis, speaking as a Reflexologist, I agree with you 100%!

 

[Celtic_Emperor]

I am surprized by both the reaction and the simplicity of the question/remark.

On one hand, its perfectly acceptable for him to vent his outrage over this. On the other hand however, its apparently slighted some people here, some in a deep, profound way. To be honest, I didn't expect that from a site with foot fetishists on it. Of all people, I thought you would be more understanding to him and your approach would be different. Its good to know its not an exception.

While I'm not making sport of what you've said in your defence, its kind of funny how things totally turned around on him! I actually thought people would be all like "yeah, isn't that gross?" or something, not give him grief! LOL

 

[kis123]

Everyone is entitled to his/her own opinion. He's entitled to his, and we are entitled to ours. Once you put it in print, you have to deal with the fallout whether it goes your way or not. I personally have too many other issues in my life to be worried about such a thing. If you don't like something, it's time to make some changes, not just complain.

I enjoy tickling, but not to the point I wouldn't get involved with someone because he doesn't have great looking feet. To be exact, most of the men's feet I see, I don't find attractive at all. But, I've given more than my share of foot massages, toenail clips, lotion treatments. I like to think of myself as being part of the solution, not the problem. If I don't like something, I do something about it until he catches on. If I'm going to complain about something, I should be first to work on solving the problem.

What if you met the woman of your dreams and found out she had foot problems? Does that mean you don't get involved with her? That's beyond ridiculous and shallow to me. You'd rather involve yourself with a total dunderhead with great feet? C'mon, doesn't that sound really silly? If her feet look bad, help her fix them and go on with life. Yes, this is the voice of experience talking!

 

[Celtic_Emperor]

I understand, no worries. ^__^

To answer you question, of course I wouldn't be so petty. What kind of a shallow bastard would I be over something like that? While I'm sure anyone would appriciate nice looking feet, the same thing could be reversed.

Let me ask you the question then- what if he had really nice feet but he was a "total dunderhead"? Instead of being shallow about that, why not take the plus of him having nice feet and work with him to make him a more esteemed, intellegent, and educated man?

Are you telling me that its not a double standard to want to help an intellegent person look better but to not want to bother with a "dunderhead" and make them smarter when you already have the bonus of them having nice feet?

Try reversing the situation and you'll see things differently.

Although, it is easier for me to talk, I don't exactly have a foot fetish, if simply by the definition which isn't fair to me. If the definition was changed a bit and lessened and more general rather than sexual then I guess then I wouldn't mind the possibility that I might have a fetish. On the other hand though, I'm sure theres plenty of people that are in the "grey" of it all, like me, so I don't feel bad or alone.

I have reversed the situation and the term dunderhead has nothing to do with lack of intelligence in my book. Besides, we live in the information age and if someone really wants to expand their knowledge base, it's as simple as point and click. Most of the men I've involved myself with are not at the same level of education or experience as me. The only type of man that turns me off is someone who has no ambition, no goals, no drive, and wants to live off of me and tell me what to do with my life. I also hate men who lack self esteem and need to control their women. Beyond that, I can work with almost everyone.

 

[Celtic_Emperor]

Dunderhead has so many uses, lol.

Anyways, of course you're right. But I'm not suggesting they are complete airheads, suppose they just seem that way, but with your help could reach that next level? Just like with the person that wants or needs to look better and your willing to help them, why is it different for the person who wants you to help them with their studies? Isn't that a form of personal bias on your part, because of your independance? (which of course I'm not knocking, its a good trait to have). I don't see the reason why helping a person look better is more important than helping someone who already looks good learn and grow by any extension one would have to offer.

 

[kis123]

Oh my dear CE:

I have helped several guys go from bottom to top of their game, and would you like to know what thanks I got in return? Them leaving me for some bimbo who drained them after they became something. You see, once I showed them they had real potential and showed them how to use it, they became more attractive to other women. These women aren't willing to do the work, they're just willing to benefit from other women's work. But, they know just what to say and do to boost that man's ego so they end up leaving to go to what they think are greener pastures. They end up finding out they made a big mistake and have the nerve to want to come back after they strayed. How the heck about that????

That's why I'm not that crazy about the "hot chick" syndrome. I think it's way too shallow for me.

 

[Celtic_Emperor]

Well, that explains that. I'm sorry to hear that.

Maybe I'm too understanding for my own good.

 

[kis123]

I went through what I went through in order to be who I am today. I have my share of regrets, but so does everyone else. Nothing is exclusive to me-a lot of women have their own version of my story. I don't know how a story on feet got me to this point, but it's okay. It's actually good that those feelings got out.

On behalf of maniactickler, I decided to look down to the peds. I noticed that my feet could use some serious work. Between going to school and trying to look for work, I just neglected myself. So I'm working on the "dogs". He has a point-crusty feet are gross! Just don't make that the deal breaker in a relationship.

This is kis returning this thread to its original owner........

 

[featherfingers]

Hi, Kis! As a guy, I'm pretty meticulous about taking care of my feet. One day I went out jogging only to find that a toenail was coming off due to the workout I gave my feet. I hid my feet from public view until it grew back. And not too long ago, a friend of mine applied henna to my feet, toenails, too. The next day, the henna disappeared except for the stuff on my toenails. My toes looked like they had an infectious disease. They're fine now. So, judging someone based on the way their feet look is pretty unfair to that person. Like I said before, there's more to a person than just their feet.

 

[Celtic_Emperor]

But thats just common sense. Of course theres more to people than their feet. How can anyone sane or not obsessed actually say there isn't, or its "no dice" if they don't get exactly what they wanted from a part of the body thats not even seen some 60% of the time?

I feel sorry for the people who are maneuvered into relationships because of people like that.

 

[featherfingers]

I would ask them the following question: "If you met a person with beautiful feet/breasts/earlobes,etc. and you fell in love with her/him, would your love for them change if they had their foot amputated or a breast removed due to cancer,etc.?" They'll have to decide if they love the person as a whole, or if they're truly fixated on a particular body part. There was a policeman in Phoenix who was in a car accident. His car exploded and he was burned over 95% of his body. He has no face anymore, just scar tissue and holes where his nose used to be. I'm not even sure if his eyes can see. I just found out that not only did his wife stay with him but they're about to have another baby. Isn't that the kind of love we all desire?

 

[Celtic_Emperor]

It sure is, it sure is.
