Ouch. The annoying part about the bachelorette is that I doubt he went "on an on" about his foot fetish. I bet the producers kept asking him questions about it to create the "pervy character" on the show. Reality tv guys do it all the time. They edit the footage to type cast everyone "loveable loser/bad guy/bad boy/guy next door/pervy guy/religious dude" ect
As for Chelsea Lately...I find her personality highly attractive. Her looks are ok. Anyway i'd love to prove her wrong about hooking up with a foot fetish guy.

i hear ya, i got a bit of a crush on her too and if i was to just see a pic of her.. i'd pass.
now as for footfreak guy.. he may not have gone on and on, but he could pick out his wife in 10 secs by looking at her feet?!?! wow.. you dont think that was hugely damaging to all of us if he represents us?

Some of her pics are very hot! Some are very not. Lol. I dig a funny girl. They are usually very smart in that they can find the satire in life. Anyways....
Yeah dude came off like a creep. I was just noting that he most likely spoke about other things but they used leading questions to get the interview we saw. Good thing he's good looking and didn't talk about his fav foot fetish activity!

Yeah, Tanner definitely overreacted...hate how we went from weirdos to pervs so far this decade...does the saying negative publicity is good publicity hold true?

Im actually liking this, any publicity is good publicity, thats how i feel about it anyways. Stuff like this will create mass awareness and public knowledge of the foot world. Yeah it will be in a negative redicule context, but i find it better than not knowing about the foot world at all.
Heck, alot of things that are deemed unusual are at first ridiculed and looked on in a negative way, then over time, things change, so I welcome any kind of publicity about the foot world.
I did say this many many times in the past in previous threads, that the whole foot thing in the eyes of the masses is gonna go through the stages that you are seeing now, first awareness, whether it be by QT and his movies, youtube bloggers and vids or what not, people then become more aware and then the first reaction is negative, then as time goes by the more enlightened and open minded ones will either explore or look into it more to see it aint so bad, and that will only increase, that last bit depends on us as individuals and how we carry ourslves as decent human beings and not fit into this 'creepy' stereotype being currently portrayed, its through us that the people will realise that its not as creepy as they thought.
bare in mind, its gonna be a gradual thing that will happen over many years, we sorta see glimpes of the positive side of it emerging, theres alot of women out there with their own sites or youtube channels embracing this sorta thing. So where we are now, may not be a brilliant start, but its a start none the less.
Its up to us to represent ourselves as decent upstanding people and show the world that what they now see on things like the bachalorette aint what we are about.

I'm inclined to agree with climax. A little more awareness and good representation on our end is a positive thing.
Granted, I've never encountered a truly negative reaction to the foot thing. Mostly curiosity. Perhaps California girls are more open minded. In my experience I can't say people consider a liking of feet to be perverted.

"the bachelorette" producers didn't treat it in as negative a light as i originally feared, anyway.
yet..

Well it will certainly be interesting to see what happens from here on out with him...I hated to see and read all the 'mainstream' comments about the guy being creepy, etc... hopefully he can turn it around and make us look good.

yeah but don't you think that's possibly true?
it isn't uncommon for guys to marry a woman based on looks, a foot guy could easily choose his woman based on feet
half of the pics section is faceless foot models and many guys here don't seem to mind that
as far as the guy being creepy, i think a lot of people would've said the same thing if he used the word "breasts" instead of "feet"
being totally fixated on any body part would be considered creepy to many people

Chelsea Lately is amazingly unattractive.

She did a taped comedy bit about going to a spa, and one part has her getting either a pedicured or a foot massage from some vibrator or whatever, and she was laughing like she was getting tickled. It was obviously a put-on, but we got a good look at the ball of her foot. I thought is was rather hot. I'd love to see just how ticklish she really is. As far as the guy on Bachelorette.... Reality shows have very little reality as you well may have noticed. Would you go on national television knowing that millions are watching this load of crap, and drool on and on about your foot fetish? Maybe if is was on The Playboy Channel.

I know a lot of lurkers have to be annoyed with us complaing about stuff like this....I say better speak on it than ignore it....with this you're either one of two things a complainer [me] or a denier
