foot fetish

This is only loosely related to strip clubs but I though you guys might have some insights.

What is it with foot wear and pornography? Why do almost all the women in pornographic video leave their shoes on ... even when fucking?

In strip clubs I understand the concept. High heels make women's legs and butts more shapely and sexy. And sometimes it might even make their tits more perky, but that may be an optical illusion. I've seen a few dancers dance in flat shoes or take their shoes off and look good doing it. But we all know that high heels make almost every woman look sexier.

But when these women in videos are not in a standing position, on their back or knees or hands and knees, why leave the shoes on? It makes no sense to me but almost all porno I've viewed is that way.

    I like the dancers better without the high heels even moreso if she has a natural bubble butt.

    I think the magic word is fetish, an irrational sexual fixation on an inanimate object. My definition, they are difficult to explain. Like fishnet stockings, either they turn you on or they don't.

    I'll venture a try anyway. Perhaps it is indeed the very non-functional property of high heels when not standing, combined with their well-known sexual connotations and the discomfort a woman undergoes to wear them that makes them a turn on. It's like she's saying, "I'm wearing these stupid things just to make myself a better sex object, all for you to make you cum harder, big boy."

    Erm, make that "BY definition..." not "My definition..."

    I think Chandler has nailed it perfectly. But I will go one step further to say that if you are the man that is having sex, you do not see the shoes most of the time. The shoes are kept on for the viewer of the act and the definition offered by Chandler, imo, applies to the viewer more so than to the "doer" (how poetic, lol).

    I like high heels in porn. However, I am getting sick and tired of seeing stripper shoes in every freaking scene. For crying out loud, when was the last time you saw a hot coed, secretary, nurse, cheerleader, in stripper shoes?

    High heels are sexy because the heel is phalic. However, I would like to see clubs experiment with other options. I don't like amateur nights when the girls wear stripper shoes. I want those fresh young girls to look like fresh young girls. I prefer it when the dancer takes her shoes off during private dances, especially those few girls that know how to use their toes on your dick while they're rising up to rub their tits in your face. A shapely well pedicured foot is very sexy, and I think sexier without the "fuckme shoes."

    I never "got" the foot fetish. Feet aren't sexy to me. Neither are the "fuckme shoes", in my opinion. Just like Chandler said, they either turn you on, or they don't.

    At the risk of contradicting myself, I have seen a few porns where a girl gives a guy a foot job, which I find a bit of a turn on, though it's not so much that it's a foot, but rather it's something that you just don't see that often, so the uniqueness, I think is what turns me on. Also, I've seen a few videos of a girl giving another girl a "toe job", which is also erotic.

    Maybe I'm a (shoe) closet foot fetish type of guy.

    DougS, you have a point regarding things that you don't see that often. That is one reason that I would like to see some clubs experiment. Footwear would be a good place to start since after their first minute on stage it is often the only thing that they wear. I remember a dancer at Roxy's complaining that she had saddle shoes to compliment her Catholic school uniform, but the club forced her to wear heels. That's a shame.

    Clubs with young dancers should capitalize on their talent and let them dress young. I can see 35-year-old silicone enhanced strippers in heels almost anywhere. But show me some young babes in flip flops and a short skirt and I'll drive cross country to see that. Tuxedoes in Davenport has lots of young talent and I think they should experiment with a co-ed night, or a flip flop night. Hell, why not just go with a foot fetish night. Charge us PL's for the opportunity to give girls a foot massage.

    Like Raincoat, I think high heels are sexy, but only with clothes on. Mine are only 4" heels though! (LOL) I prefer barefooted lap dancers.

    As far as the fetish, not for me, at least in feet. I've seen one porn clip where a HUGH (maybe shadowcat) guy shot 'cum' all over some pornstar's feet. We've seen it shot in the mouth, on the face, on the brests, on the puss, in the hair, now on the feet. What's next? In the nose and ears?

    Shoes on or off during the scene is pretty much the director's call.

    I think that barefoot girls are part of reason that amateur nights are so popular. I just wish some clubs would capitalize on their youthful dancers. It's like its part of a coed costume.
