>>13495303Yeah, but women have access to footcare products and pedicures, women's shoe makers' tendencies to sell designer sandals practically give them incentive to keep those puppies clean or nice looking not to mention the anatomical structure is generally more petite and slender for women's feet of a certain body type -- there are exceptions, but on a whole women's feet are just shaped in a way you can tell them apart from men's.
>>13495361The appeal for me is that it's a paradox. There's a lot of gross things about feet and yet there's so much in feminine care and beauty that's about fighting those very "weaknesses." Soaking in green tea fights foot odor, a salt scrub is good for maintaining softness, hell there's even a exfoliation treatment for certain fish to
eat dead skin off the foot. Reflexology also plays a part too, as it's very much possible for a simple foot massage to become erogenous.
Finally, the very stigma of a foot being dirty can be viewed as a form of submission. I won't go any further than that, but it isn't without reason. Still varies person to person, as others enjoy the fetish for different reasons/contexts.
