So I told a hot coworker, that showed up in flips to get her check that she has cute toes. Her reply was, "ewwww, I hate feet"! I had no comeback! Anyone else been there and done that?

Tell her " You can hate feet all you want, but YOUR feet are pretty and I can tell that you take care of them"

My last girlfriend said the same thing, but she still let me do stuff with them.

I've seen this response dozens of times over the years. It's like they heard that sentence from someone else and adopted for themselves. It's a blanket statement that is childish and immature. It's like saying "I hate elbows."
I bet if you were fucking this girl good and had her on the brink of an orgasm (with her toes in your mouth), she'd never utter that stupid saying again.

Though many of my friends partners tolerate my love of feet, they just don't get it. They will allow me to take photos most of the time (as they don't find it intimidating) but most of them are just astounded I find feet attractive. My wife's friend Chantelle is about the only one who gets it and is always walking around our house barefoot and sits with my on our couch with her bare feet up and inches away me. She admitted to me she does it to stir me up.

Girls operate on autopilot. They learn certain mentalities, actions, and phrases from each other at early ages. Emotions rule their actions, not logic. After a while, you start to notice pattered behaviors from them. That is the reason what works on one, works on the majority of them.
Don't get butt hurt by that same phrase that has been uttered so many times by so many girls. Don't get logical, get emotional. By giving a well-placed compliment, you can disarm a girl's aversion to feet, even her own.
"Hey...you may hate feet, but today, you showed yours off, and they are pretty. You have cute toes too, so I can tell you take care of them."
Don't stare or look at them when you tell her this. Instead, look directly at her and smile when you do. She may even want to hear more. Make her chase you for more validation by asking what size they are, say she should show them more, and then walk away.
You could also change the subject to keep her comfortable with talking with you while you get more glimpses of her feet. Joke with her by asking what new pair of shoes is she going to blow her paycheck on when she cashes it.
Stay away from trying to convert her to liking feet or trying to explain why you like feet, and you will be ok. The idea is to let her know you like hers. That is all that matters.

I look at is a barometer of sensuousness and openness. A woman that says that is neither, and I cross them off the list!

"Most people say, "Thank you" when given a compliment. That's usually the polite thing to do."

Not quite the same but this reminds, back in high school a girl was putting lotion on her feet in math class I believe and our math teacher (this guy was awesome really cool) jokingly said: "Could you rub lotion on my feet too?" Her response "eww feet are gross." If my memory isn't betraying me I think I recall her adding: "I don't even like touching my own feet."

From my experience the whole disdain of feet from females comes not only with their negativity of feet in general, but also their own.
Probably the most interesting time it's been said is when a tapered toed girl told a pigeon toed girl that she has ugly feet. The tapered toe girl remarked that her feet were cute bc of the toes. The pigeon toed girl said, "I hate feet anyway, they're gross".
My best experience with this was during sex when I came out to a woman about the fetish. She said that she hates feet and doesn't like hers. I told her, "well I don't" and eased my way into her feet with my lips. She ended up having a really intense orgasm after I sucked her toes and admitted that I hit her spot after it.
Overall, it's not hard to understand why people get repulsed by feet. I hate men's feet and don't want to even see them.
Posted by BareSoles84 (Member # 45910) on :
I wouldn't look too much into it anyway.
It's not only exclusive to feet. Many people in today's society are myopic, hypocritical and simply can't fathom why anyone else wouldn't share the same opinions, perspectives and viewpoints as they do in general. Whatever they like, they presume and expect that everyone else is supposed to like the same thing. Whatever they dislike, they expect and presume that everyone else is supposed to dislike it as well.
When it comes down to it, it's just feet. There's really no need to make a big deal about it on either side.

If she thinks her feet are gross, then why is she wearing flip flops!!!! By the way, my girlfriend has told me that she now has more respect for her feet, since we've been together.
Posted by ILoveLexisFeet (Member # 48849) on :
She probably said that because to her it was a creepy comment or maybe she wasn't attracted to you and she thought you were coming on to her. Some women like feet, some don't. I have noticed women that claim to hate feet, love to show off their new pedicures, or toe rings. It really doesn't matter what they think. What matters is that you express yourself, within reason, and are unapologetic about it. Why be sorry for something that is such a deep part of our identities?

Bulls-eye! There is just so much wanton ignorance and contradiction in this world. I have one word for women like this: Next!

Right, Jedi...and a bit off-topic here, many women talk of loving foot rubs or massages, but balk when they learn the guy giving it is aroused by it or a foot guy. I've been through that before...I've learned to sometimes just keep my mouth shut. But not all the time, of course. My expression toward women with beautiful feet has paid off nicely.

Years ago, was out with a group of friends and the topic of foot fetishes came up. I don't remember exactly how the conversation turned in that direction, but one of the girls replied with something along of the lines of, "That's gross, feet are nasty". I replied that she had nothing to worry about, because her feet weren't very nice anyway, if a joking sort of way (they actually were very nice).
She took offense and tried to sell the appeal of her feet. She slipped her foot out of her flip flop and mentioned how hers were actually cute and taken care of. The more I threw out negs, the more she played into it.

I can't even count the amount of times I've heard a girl say feet are gross. It's true some peoples feet are gross, but others actually take care of their feet and get pedicures all the time and put lotion on them etc. I can't understand why women would waste money on pedicures and stuff if they think feet are gross?

If she hates feet so much why does she wear flip flops! That kind of hypocrisy bothers me.

I refer to the phenomenon of women shunning foot-attention but wearing revealing shoes as the "pedicure paradox." From my observations, lot of women see their feet as fashion accessories for their shoes. Women admit their shoes have sex-appeal, but not their feet by themselves separated from their shoes. The anatomy of their feet being attractive isn't what we're taught growing up, so [some] women experience cognitive-dissonance when they find out men are infatuated with them similarly to their breasts and backsides. Even legs are fine. But going pass the ankle steps into unfamiliar territory.

A lot of women don't like wearing shoes period so sandals and flip flops help them maintain the barefootness when they don't have to dress formal or to the temperature. Heels make them taller which is supposedly sexier. They don't want others to judge them for having ugly nasty feet so they get pedicures to go with their revealing comfortable shoes. I guess there are just those that can wear the shoes and pedicure but don't like to be told that they're cute by men. Women...

Women. . . I've actually heard girls compliment other girls on their feet!

Who cares? These girls can be turned.
If she's into you, she will change her opinion on the matter very quickly. VERY quickly.
I've learned a long time ago not to put too much stock into what a girl says. Everything is negotiable.

I mean, if you hate something, why would you spend so much time decorating the very same thing that you hate? Surely if you hate feet then you wouldn't spend $10-20 dollars on pedicures.
The true story is that they are just fooling themselves. If they don't like feet or want their feet to be admired then they shouldn't walk around with flip flops and painted toe nails. That's like saying "Hey, don't my feet look good?" but they have to make up this little act and call feet disgusting when they get a compliment. It makes me sick. Those women that are always wearing shoes and never showing their soles at all should be the ones saying they hate feet. Not the ones with painted toenails wearing flip flops 24/7. It contradicts the very same thing that you are trying to do. If you hate feet and don't want your feet to be admired then don't paint them and make them all pretty and then try to show them off indirectly in public.
Man I'm telling you that these women really do have a disdain for feet. A lot of women just follow fashion trends and or feel more comfortable in open footed shoes. Getting sandals, flip flops, or open toed wedges with a pedicure is just how it goes. Many really do think feet are nasty so they want to spruce theirs up to look fitting with the revealing shoes. Why would they want to show a part that's nasty if it really looks nasty? They expect other women to look at their shoes and say, "oh those are cute shoes!". They don't want to see a look of disgust on that woman's face from their dirty yellow nails and etc...
That doesn't necessarily mean that they have to love feet to wear sandals. Feet still aren't a very common sexual part, unless millions upon millions are in the closet with a foot fetish.
Bottom line is that most of these women aren't getting their feet done and buying the sandals with the expectation of having the foot guys flock to them.
