Slappy McGee,
Actually, what I meant to say is what MadKalnod mentioned regarding people finding my interest in feet and tickling a little too fascinating and unique. Hence, they bring it up in the middle of a normal conversation as something worth discussing. It is never in any sexual terms.
That's why it takes me off guard. We could be talking about the latest mission to Mars and then she would bring it up like,
"Oh, did you know that he likes feet?"
"And my feet are not even that cute."
"So and so feet are more attractive than mine."
"Do you like anybody's feet, or are you selective?"
It is sometimes amusing because they look like they have genuine interest in the matter, but sometimes I think they find it too wierd and bring it up just to see how I react...
In any case, it is never around anything sexual or as a weapon to attack me with. That would be bad and an invitation to war, as you put it. So far, it has always been OK.
Actually, I just remembered one instance at work. She was of German background (if that makes any difference) and had a very stuck up personality. She had somewhat attractive feet, but she was always wearing open shoes and without socks or stockings. Too much of an invitation...
We were never "close" at work, but we had interacted in many occasions regarding some updates to documentation. One day, we had been working on a project for a while and had gotten kind of "close". You know, kidding with each other and stuff. (Note that she is about 10 years older than me, married and with children. Thus, we were not getting romantic in any way. We were just getting friendly.)
Anyway, the conversation about men interested in feet came up several times during our long interaction. Nothing much. I just wanted to find out her position in the matter. She let me know that she did not care much about feet and that she thought her feet were not attractive.
She was playing with her shoe a lot and in one instance you could see her sole. At that instance, my pencil feel off to the ground (surprise!?) and I bent down to grab it. When I was down I could see her sole up close and personal, so I decided to run my finger on it for a quick tickle.
She jumped and moved away and looked at me surprised. Then she let me know that she did not like when people touched her feet. We discussed a little longer about the subject. I wanted to find out if it was based on some experience or if it was just that she did not like it. It turns out that it was because she did not think her feet were attractive and she did not feel comfortable with other people looking at or playing with them.
The conversation ended and we kept working on whatever we were doing. We saw several times during the week in our normal interaction pattern,
"Hey, how are you doing?"
"Fine, and you?"
"Fine, thanks."
One day, we are together again and there was another female co-worker. When she greeted me she said,
"Hi, here is the guy who likes feet?"
The other girl was like,
"What do you mean?"
and then she kept going,
"Oh, yeah. He likes women's feet."
I kept my cool, but I was a little petrified. It was off the blue and I did not know how to respond. Fortunately, the other girl did not think much about it and quickly dismissed the point.
Anyway, this woman used any pretext to bring it up with other female co-workers. I am pretty sure she was doing it on purpose to embarrass me. However, I was already prepared. The next time she said something, I responded,
"Yes, and you are the woman who does not like feet. I guess we keep the balance."
and the next time,
"Well, other men like breasts and butts. I just happen to like feet."
and the next time,
"Oh yeah, and I give an excellent foot massage. You should tell me when you need one."
and the last time,
"Yeap, I am just fascinated by them. They support the entire body for the whole day and people do not pay attention to them. Did you know that most pains in your body and directly or indirectly related to your feet? You should visit a podiatrist, you would be surprised with what you would learn. Also, you could try a session with a foot reflexologist. I am a licensed masseur and foot reflexologist. I could give you a session free of charge. I also know a line of products that would make you feel like walking in the clouds. They would feel so soft that your socks would tickle the soles of your feet while you walk."
Needless to say, that was the last time she brought it up. I guess that since that time, I am more comfortable with my foot fetish. However, I still get cought off guard some times.
Thanks for reading.
Bye,
