I was reading the post about resteraunt feet which I can totally relate to. Has anybody snuck pictures of feet while in public? Kinda pervey I know. I have never done this but there have been times I've been on my phone in public and there were pretty feet on display and I've thought "how easy it could be to switch to my camera and take a picture.

I know the temptation can be great, but I generally don't think it's a good idea to take sneak pictures of women, and the main reason is that to me it does seem pervy as all hell, and some cases, an invasion of of privacy. Some guys act like they've never seen a nice pair of feet before, and I personally find that dismally depressing.

I agree 100%!!! Posted by nodes (Member # 29542) on :
Fair Adam and Feetosopher are better men than I am. And so is everyone else who frowns upon this behavior. And if you ask me if I condone this behavior I will tell you that I don't. But if I come across some really sexy feet what am I going to do? I am going to start snapping. But in the process I am going to try to respect her as much as possible and then leave her alone.
It can be argued that you lose respect for her when you start filming her without her consent. It can also be argued that you can film someone and still respect them as a person. In addition, what is accepted socially has gone in a different direction. People are filming each other now more than ever. If you graphed the data on a chart we all know the numbers would be way up without having to do any research.
Meanwhile booties and boobies are being filmed every day to high heaven and posted on the internet for all to see. There are thousands of skits on the internet based on it. But since they are socially acceptable body parts it is merely frowned upon.
So if you ask me if it is morally permissible to film a girl's feet in public I will say no, because it doesn't match up with morality. Instead I will tell you to go to:
because if you go there your morals will remain in tact. Also someone has to get paid for you to digest beauty. Buy your morals people, save that spot in heaven.
P.S, I love Adam and have a ton of his work on my hard drives. My respect for him goes way beyond this post. I have been a loyal paid subscriber to his site wit no regrets. His talent goes way beyond the scope of this post, that man has the eye and also scouts wonderful talent.

There's only one time that I can vividly recall where I've done this. It was a tall Asian girl that was at the bank in front of me a few years ago making a transaction, and her big bare sole was fully exposed right in front of me. I posted the pics on here:
Like I mentioned, that was the only time I can recall where I've felt compelled to take a photo. I've never really been one to take candid pictures in a clandestine manner without the person's knowledge. Do I think there's anything wrong with it? Eh, not really, but it depends on the situation. If it's something say in the case of what I did where it's obvious you're not trying to take pictures of private parts and you're at a considerable distance and not invading someone's personal space, then not really. Should you do it? Probably not. Though at the same time I don't really see anything "wrong" with it per se to where it makes you a bad or an immoral person. However, I do see a lot wrong with these guys who actually crawl underneath desks with a camera in their hand taking pictures or set up cameras underneath desks because I can see how that can totally be construed as you attempting to get a view of private parts; not to mention an invasion of someone's personal space being that you're right underneath them.
Regardless, I just don't do it at all now in any capacity. Even when I did take those candids that I referenced, I wasn't really a proponent of taking unsuspecting candids. If I was in that situation again, I would probably just simply think to myself at the moment "nice feet," then move on and forget about it.

I can never do candids. don't get me wrong i have had snap a few pics before of a nice pair of feet infront of me but I would delete it right after. Something about it makes me feel like a creep. Sometimes you just gotta appreciate the " view " infront of you and just keep it moving.

Just an (unnecessary?) clarification from my side, sir. As a hobby pornographer, I am active on Wu's Foot Forum neither to hold lectures in ethics, nor to wave the flag of the "moral majority". I am mainly here to advertise two adult-oriented paysites which will corrupt your morality and lead you straight to hell!
However, even as a "foot perv", I do have some basic values. You have mentioned it in your comment.. it all boils down to one essential ingredient: CONSENT. The immoral barefoot exhibitionists showing off their crown jewels in public places and stuffing their holes with veggies and weird stuff at BAREFOOT NUDITY, or barefooting in public and strutting their super-filthy soles at BAREFOOT URBAN GIRLS.. are all of certified legal age and have all signed a written release authorising me to publish material which is, to most viewers, essentially an inspiration for jerking off. This means that these beauties are 100% comfortable with you all (virtually) getting up close and personal with their private parts and/or dirty peds, and wanking at them. I guess that there is no need to explain that all the above conditions are not met when you take a candid of an unaware woman.. end even less so when you post that candid on internet.. automatically transforming it into wanking stuff for (theoretically) countless dudes/dudettes. Frankly speaking, I find that all this is UTTERLY DISRESPECTFUL towards the "victims".. and personally I find it UNACCEPTABLE. Hence my "thumbs up all the way" for the comment by Fair Adam

Well stated Feetosopher. I honestly cant disagree with your rebuttal. Also, I don't intend to be unfriendly towards you. However, I do want to clarify that I have rarely ever posted candid material here or anywhere else. And that's just because I am lazy. At the same time I am such a wuss when it comes to shooting candids. Believe it or not, I don't enjoy making women feel uncomfortable. I am actually very respectful towards women in every day life.
It is worth stating, that there are different ranges within a spectrum. Some people shoot candids for sport. I don't. Yet, if I see a very sexy pair of feet in some nice shoes, I might take a quick snap. Every red blooded man now has a camera in their pocket at all times every day and it is finally socially acceptable. Is it some big surprise that men would exploit that scenario and pervert it?
Nobody has blown the whistle on you, feetosopher, and you are depicting adult content, namely women's snatches, on the "foot fetish talk" section of our forum. Just see your avatar and your signature.
But I will be the first to tell you that your advertisements don't offend me. I am okay with them, you know because of the ink-signatures and everything that you went through all the trouble to get.
I will leave you with this. Any of the content that I have ever posted or shot has never been for monetary gain. At the same time if it were according to the MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America) the stuff I ever shot was rated PG. They are just feet. Meanwhile you are in the business of showing women's beavers to the world. Despite this, you are taking the moral high ground?
What is my end game? Why am I writing this stuff? Its so that you guys can stop jumping down our throats. You clearly get a chance to do what you want on this forum. The whole, "sneaking pics of feet" topic comes up year in and year out. So does the sneaking off with shoes topic. People do this stuff and they want to talk about it but you guys do an awesome job to not allow it. And I get that you have made up your mind about it. Therefore you have nothing to really add to the conversation.
Yet you don't recognize yourself as a champion of morality? The only reason you are involved in this thread is because you are stepping in on the grounds of morality. But in the end you are unwilling to morally judge yourself? I guess it feels better to judge other people instead of yourself.
Posted by Feetosopher (Member # 45909) on :
Sir.. I truly don't want to start a potentially endless discussion with you in this thread.. mainly because I must devote my limited time to promoting my porn sites.. Again.. I just stated a PERSONAL VIEW on this "candid" topic. Some will agree with my opinion, others (you among them) will disagree, and I am 100% comfortable with this. I do believe in freedom of thought and speech, and - again - I have no lessons in morality to teach. Otherwise, you would see me going berserk at every candid posted in the Forum.. which is not the case. You and other dudes believe that taking candids is more ethical than making and selling legitimate foot-related erotica. It's a totally respectable view, even if I disagree with it. I and other dudes believe exactly the opposite. It's another totally respectable view, even if you disagree with it. To me, the discussion ends here. Sayonara.
P.S: I have been on the Forum for over 5 years, and my avatar and signature have always been the ones you see now. We have a moderator team here, the mods have always been OK with my avatar and signature, so I am gonna keep them.

Whew, I didnt realize this was discussed in the past ad nauseum nor that it would be such a sensitive subject on a foot fetish site.
I'll admit, its a bit pervy and I can understand both points of view. I have snuck whiffs of girls shoes and socks at times and thats a bit pervy too but perhaps thats different because it is an inatimate object??? Maybe it's no different at all. I have to say that if I got caught taking a pic like this I would be embarrassed and it would be reinforcing the creepy stereotype that we foot guys have.
At the same time, is taking a pic of feet that are displayed in public really wrong? I'm not forcing anybody to do anything they don't want to do, nor would I try to make money off of somebody without their knowledge. I'm just capturing an image that was displayed in public. If a girl has pretty feet on display there are already foot guys perving on them!
It's a dilly of a pickle I tell you. I have never done this, but similar to sneaking whiffs of shoes and socks, I think that if I could get away with it I probably would! Is it right, probably not. Heaven help me.

As for those speaking about there not being an issue because no one is photographing private parts, as someone into feet you might as well be photographing private parts. Whether one feels it's right or wrong is a different story, but the idea seems pretty similar to me.

nobody is more guilty of this than women, they always take pictures of random people without their permission
that's what you get in a smart phone world

When a woman has a crush on a man if she is left alone with a garment of his, for example a shirt, she is likely to sneak in a whiff. Meanwhile, 'non foot guys' are notorious for secretly smelling panties and bras. Apparently, secretly smelling objects transcends the foot community.
luvstockingfeet , I have been on here for a good 10 years, I had to delete my old account because I got burned when my ex found out about this site. Lets just say I had to shed my old skin. At any rate, it comes up year in and year out and I have always felt that potential conversations get suppressed. I am glad that you were comfortable enough to be honest with your input.
Coryr,
Feet are not socially regarded as private parts. Men and women are free to expose their feet as much as they want. For example, take public breast feeding. The reason there is an issue regarding it is because it has to do with a woman's private part.
Posted by nodes (Member # 29542) on :
Feetosopher, you seems to be a very reasonable dude and thanks for being respectful. I agree we both said our piece to each other and we can leave it at that. My hat is off to you. Keep in mind that I literally said that you are a better man than me and that in the end you are correct so you technically won the argument.

Exactly. On another forum with a thread topic that was similar to this, someone said that they lived with a female friend of theirs who had an affinity for construction workers, and she would constantly upload candid pictures of men working on building and doing construction because she found that hot.
There are probably tons of girls out there snap chatting their friends images of guys they see and like the look of. I’ll bet it’s probably even happened to guys on this forum without their knowledge.

Dear sir, persons still capable of civilized discussions like you provide a badly needed relief from widespread arrogance and bad manners on social media (not only on this forum, but also on other foot-themed ones, on Facebook etc.). I do not see our exchange as an argument (so no winners and losers), and believe me.. I don't see myself as better or worse than other people.. I am just myself.. The Feetosopher! All the best from sunny Italy!

Without the persons face it´s anonymous feet. The problem being then? But i guess it´s a bit creepy or something. I´ve got to think a little on it.
Posted by footfunk305 (Member # 50227) on :
I take pics of feet if they are really sexy. Just think of it. Pretty much EVERY PLACE now has you on film. So I really don't care about any backlash of taking pics of feet. It's just feet, very harmless.
Posted by sickvik (Member # 1319) on :
I see nothing wrong with candids. I do it constantly and I don't consider myself a perv at all. It isn't illegal either. Feet are visible so I don't see the big deal. Now upskirt is another story at least for me. You have to go out of the way to film that and clothing is covering that area. Feet are out in the open. If you think its wrong that is cool. Don't look at them or record them and all is well.
Posted by solemaster1983 (Member # 51210) on :
i think filminq feet without the face is acceptable, as lonq as the face is not there. afterall, capturinq feet pics without her face is not illeqal at all.
Posted by sickvik (Member # 1319) on :
It is not illegal with the face either
Posted by tintin19153 (Member # 3694) on :
Would I do it? No I would not. It’s legal(at least where I live),so if someone wants to do it ,that’s their right. For the people who have issues with it. I guess you never look at real candid pictures and videos online.
