What is Shoe Worship? Foot And Shoe Worship Information

Shoe worship is a fetish activity within femdom and female domination circles that is used as a way to sexualize and enjoy female foot attire. While there might be an aspect of shoe worship that is not directed toward humiliation and the exchange of power, for the purposes of discussion in this text, the focus will be on the relationship between BDSM and the sub community of shoe worship practitioners within it.

The central element of worshipping shoes is, naturally, the shoes themselves. Note that there are a large variety of shoes that might be fetishized. For instance, one person with a love of female feet might like to see them in high heels, another in knee-length leather boots and the third in sandals. More often than not, stilettos and long leather boots are used for the practice of shoe worship as a sub fetish of femdom.

How the shoes were acquired might also be associated with the fetish itself. For instance, another tactic within female domination is one that revolves around financial ‘abuse’. A shoe worshipper might only like to worship the shoes of a mistress that used his credit card in order to buy them. Additionally, whether or not the shoes have been worn before or indeed, worn for a long time can play a central part of how the fetish is enjoyed. Mistresses can also like the idea of verbally abusing a man that allowed them to take their money and do as they please – including buying shoes with the funds.

The worshipping of shoes can take many different formats. Generally, as is the case with general foot worshipping, being on a lower position and on the ground is most desired. This adds to the power exchange dynamic, and is a physical symbol of the fact that one person is in control and the other is being controlled. Typically, the shoe worshipping will start with licking the boots, although some mistresses might prefer to make their servants sniff them before they get the chance to lick them.

From the male’s perspective, shoe worshipping can be a pleasurable activity if and only if the shoe is has been used. Say, for instance, after his mistress has been out for a night clubbing, the sticky material on the bottom of the shoe, as well as the sweat that perspires throughout it, could add to the experience. As with all fetish experiences, different people have different tastes in what they enjoy.

Group sessions of shoe worshipping are not uncommon. Before hitting the town with a group of her girlfriends, a powerful woman with a slave might invite them over to have their shoe serviced by the man she controls. The lengths that he then goes to in order to ensure they’re as clean as possible can depend on the situation. Some dominatrices might call upon the use of a toothbrush, or instead insist that a tongue is used to clean every inch of all the shoes that are brought before the slave.

The reason why shoe worshipping is pleasurable likely relates to the fact that feet are an additional part of the experience. Most shoes make a woman’s feet look particularly attractive: in the case of high heels, it frames the feet and also accentuates the slender legs of the lady. As to why feet are an enjoyable fetish, some scientists point to the fact that the area of the brain that deals with the processing of touch, known as the somatosensory cortex, has the genital and foot areas closely connected. It’s hypothesized that the crossing over of sensations occurs and this leads to the feeling of pleasure whenever feet are involved with a sexual activity.

Shoe worship is likely to be one of the most ‘mainstream’ and acceptable fetishes by society. As such, people might be more willing to admit to, get involved with and indulge in their shoe worshipping desires. Whether this is through contacting a professional dominatrix for a personal experience or watching shoe worship in female domination pornography will ultimately depend on the individual and how much they desire to experience the fetish.
