Personally, I don’t get it. Foot rub sounds nice, but like not THAT nice. But I posted on a dermatology sub once and my DM’s blew up asking my gender. Just from dudes though. Are there some women who are perhaps more quietly excited by feet though? Random thought as I sit here grinding off my cracked heels…
I am a lady and I am also not into feet…the pool of ladies here may be too small of a sampling to really get you the statistics you seek.
Lady here and I can only really chime in with “feet don’t do anything for me”
Actually, for my work, people send me pictures of reciepts for reimbursement and I got a batch of like 15 with one image that just had this cracked skin, mangled nail image of a big toe (next to a reciept) that left me a just a little more “decidedly not into feet” than I was prior to seeing that image.
The whole thing seems like a hard sell.
I’m confused, I didn’t think foot fetish was common among men either? There is definitely a niche for everyone on the internet, but I was not aware that it was a common place interest.
I agree, I don’t think it is common.
Definitely now common among men. Then again, female feet are also decidedly more taken care off.
Came here to say this, but I’ll upvote here instead. However it came about, women are more likely to take care of their feet, whereas men don’t. I still don’t understand the kink, but I do see many women have attractively kept feet whereas I care that mine work

“Lehmiller even went as far as breaking down the sexual orientation of his participants, explaining that 18% of heterosexual men have fantasized about feet before, compared to a very small 5% of heterosexual women. Twenty-one percent of gay or bisexual identifying men and 11% of lesbian or bisexual women also shared their experiences with foot-related sexual fantasies.”
Having a fantasy is not quite the same as having a kink but this should give you some idea. My assumption is that most kinks are far less common in women because (on average) women have a lower libido than men.
I’m also guessing that the crowd of people willing to send unsolicited inquiries in response to a photo posted in a medical context is going to skew even more male than the population of people with this kink.
Do you have a cite for “women (on average) have a lower libido than men”?
Based on my reading, this is the consensus view of experts and it has fairly strong evidence supporting it. However, it is not universally accepted and there has been a lesser amount of conflicting research. For an alternative viewpoint, see: https://www.lelo.com/blog/sex-drive-men-vs-women/
Either way, this is a population level trend and there are plenty of exceptions.
As a woman, i really like feet!
My husbands is size 48-49 and i adore them!
Everything about them are amazing, the smell, the color, the toes, even the ganglioncyst is cute and soft, ooohh…
Not a lady, but I have female friends who like male ankles.
That’s something I’ve never heard of. Hmmm.
Stuff like this
Very uncommon. Feet are not a turn on for me.
I am a lady and absolutely hate feet, even my husband’s. And I’m starting to cringe that my preteen son’s feet are starting to look like man feet…
