get balls and tell the truth, homeboy
Actually it would take major balls to go into salons and malls and film while pretending to be some student.
I've talked the dude a few times on the phone and email. Seemed ok to me, a non clique guy.
He told me that he used the ruse to save money and not be turned down so much. As any webmaster who tries to recruit models will tell you, we get turned down a lot.
I warned him that he was risking losing content and money by not having chicks sign a release, but he was willing to take that chance.
Anyways, who says it is him anyway? I didn't see it in the story. I seriously doubt there is only one guy shooting chicks feet in the whole state of washington!

looks like the risk paid off for a bit. anyone who doesn't run a site or anything like that thinks this stuff is easy. it's totally not

Aren't we still talking about just feet? It seems like taping feet is such a silly thing until we think of what the guy watching the video is doing.
-------------------- Every arch has its ups and downs.

It's not so obvious to them though. Supposedly it's for feet lithographs related to reflexology study (however that might fit in, LOL)!
quote:Originally posted by Solelvr2009: I'm confused about why they didnt know
They probably don't know due to the perception he gives them.
For example, you can hear specific evidence of a woman's loose suspicion (of his foot fetish) and his response to her at position 50 seconds into this clip: http://youtube.com/watch?v=K05Ra7SLkRo

In the clip above it's the same voice as the guy in the other clips.

True, but there's probably only one guy doing it ever so persistently across a wide variety of pedicure saloons in the Puget Sound area though. Plus probably only one using a kosher project-like storyline to get agreement.
Pedicure saloons seem to be his primary theme. Also lines up in the website title: pedisole junction. The news story may not in fact be the same guy, but the probability, plus the known level of deciept make it seem like it's him (from a foot surfer's perspective).
I think someone also said they saw some of his sites stop or slow down dramatically in updates after the story made news.
Lot of coincidences but he may not in fact be the same guy.
I hope he gets to continue to post his collection though, cuz he probably has alot of good stuff. There's far worse tragedies in life than this IMO, although this is a PR nightmare for those of us who live our fetish thru other fetishist's reputations.

LMAO! Woman: "So you don't have a Foot fetish, do you?" Tracy: (Awkward pause) "I wish I did. (nervous laugh) It would make this a lot easier."

Here it is. This HAS to be the suspect. He's the same guy in all the clips posted here. Listen VERY carefully at 4mins and 18 seconds into the clip.
The girl says the exact same thing as the story reported.

That's why his tactic is so successful -- the underlying cognitive psychology of it.
When you can combine the element of a professional (or objective) goal in mind, you can get women to allow a lot of things that they'd naturally consider innocuous (if say a trusted person did the same thing to them).
That's why a lot of similar "would-be" foot-seekers out there have a high fail rate on approach. They lose the seeming professional or objective element in their mannersims, and when the woman senses anything that can be mis-construed as attachment, she will resist (if she's not attracted in that way).
This guy falters at times as you can see (sweating, nervous laugh, etc.), but the objectivity concept of an innocuos common goal still prevails, and he executes sufficiently enough to pull what he has. Using those elements is an effective way to get women to bend their boundaries from what they'd otherwise hold back from an "attached" seeming person.
Great find National!

Deceit has no place when asking girls to model themselves and their feet for anyone. It actually hurts legitimate guys like me in the end because the media doesn't print positive stories about guys who treat potential models with respect and who also respect the word "no".
Anyone who does this should be shot and p***ed on IMO.
But as long as we don't encourage it then there shouldn't be a market for this right?
This is why I love you and respect you. Youre one of the most honorable men in the whole footworld. It's why I wanted to meet you and Dennis (who I also love and respect) in Las Vegas when we thought you'd be there for that Convention (I nagged Ben to death until he agreed to drag me along). You can get as much of my feet as you want, whenver you're in Seattle.
