I've had several sex partners through the years, all claiming they weren't into feet......a few of them even said they "hated" feet......that, after reluctantly allowing a brief little experiment - look, touch, feel, smell, taste - ended up with my feet in their hands and my toes in their mouths.
Most of them will say, after being shown, some, for the first time, attractive, clean, unblemished feet up close, and feeling whatever bias and cliche' stigma feet held with them begin to fall away, that the "feel" part (where I let them feel my soft soles on their face, chest and cock) was the thing that turned them on the most. But it's the scent that KEEPS them turned-on and wanting more, keeps them searching for more hot, sexy feet (attached to attractiive guys) as well as returning to lick and suck on MY toes!
