Foot worship, a beginner's guide
Foot worship is the art of admiring, touching and pampering a partner's feet. It can be tender, teasing or dominant, and for many couples it's the perfect lead-up to a footjob.
What is foot worship?
Foot worship means giving a partner's feet loving, focused attention: massaging, kissing, smelling or simply admiring them. It's popular among people with a foot fetish, but also among couples who enjoy sensual massage or power dynamics.
Start with a massage
Warm some oil in your hands, support the heel in one hand and use your thumbs to work slowly along the arch, the ball of the foot and between the toes. Long, firm strokes feel relaxing; light ones can tickle.
Kisses and scent
Move from the ankle to the top of the foot, then the arch and toes. Some people love the natural scent of their partner's feet after a day in heels or sneakers; others prefer freshly washed. Agree on what you're both comfortable with.
Stockings, socks and heels
A slow reveal adds a lot: rolling a stocking down halfway over the foot, slipping off a heel, wiggling toes through sheer nylon. Anticipation is half the fun.
Taking control
For the partner whose feet are being worshipped, this can be a powerful role: telling your partner what to do, where to kiss, when to stop. Keep it playful, agree on limits beforehand and always have a clear stop word.
