Princess Emily
if I'm forced to see this,
Princess Emily
so are you
Niamh Vibes
I refuse to believe several of these
Rama
Honestly the only one I have trouble believing is JB
Doge-lover Joja
i can believe all of these
Blighty
how dare you impugn the noble name of George du Maurier
Rogal Dorn
Jables no
FʀᴏᴍTʜᴇFɪʀᴇ
honestly feet are such a harmless one...
FʀᴏᴍTʜᴇFɪʀᴇ
I don't mind feet people at all and don't get the cultural cringe about it
Rama
Yeah feet are a thing where I don't get it, but whatever
Rama
I'm more concerned with the fact that this list exists
Rama
Apparently on wikipedia
Rama
Why...is this notable
FʀᴏᴍTʜᴇFɪʀᴇ
because culture has a fixation on foot fetishism as The Weird Thing
FʀᴏᴍTʜᴇFɪʀᴇ
like it's completely a cultural thing that we care about this, bc it's the parodied fetish in media. no one cares about armpit people even though that's the exact same "mildly gross, not normally sexual body part" category
Princess Emily
I care about armpit people
A Grinning DM
Foot fetish people only bother me when they ruin shit by bringing their fetish into it. That can go for any fetish, though.
Rama
Making something horny in an inappropriate context is bad no matter what kinks are or aren't involved
A Grinning DM
That’s true.
oh i'm scary
yeah I think the reason it became a Thing is that it came into the public consciousness in the form of
oh i'm scary
"hey you wanna know why these like seventeen famous directors have so many weird closeup shots of feet in their movies????"
oh i'm scary
but like, I don't believe that many of the people on that list do that,
Rama
Speaking of that, actually, shouldn't Joss be on this list
FʀᴏᴍTʜᴇFɪʀᴇ
I think there was also a simpsons thing about it
FʀᴏᴍTʜᴇFɪʀᴇ
fuck me if I can be sure but that FEELS right and would explain its position in the cultural memory
FʀᴏᴍTʜᴇFɪʀᴇ
(even if not there's definitely uh. bit of a Foot Thing in the Simpsons too)
Striving Spark
I remember it on king of the hill.
FʀᴏᴍTʜᴇFɪʀᴇ
maybe that was it
A Grinning DM
I remember in the commentary for the Joss Whedon movie, “Serenity”, Joss claimed that River’s feet were the 10th main character of the cast.
TWO OF THEM
oh no
Princess Emily
oh no
FʀᴏᴍTʜᴇFɪʀᴇ
oh.
FʀᴏᴍTʜᴇFɪʀᴇ
yeah that's
FʀᴏᴍTʜᴇFɪʀᴇ
that's up there
magnet
I would bet money that Jables is on there due to wikipedia editors taking something he said for comedy purposes seriously
