Are flip-flops sexy?
Anti-sexy?
On girls? Women?
Boys? Men?
Pretty people vs. gnarled turtles?
I say turtles because turtles can be cute, and we'll all be gnarled or dead someday, grandparents or that age and appearance or whatnot

Never seen sexy man feet - I can say some girls have pretty feet, but generally man feet top out at "not ugly."

I evidently have a much higher tolerance for feet in general than most of the people here! But yes - for me, tanned, exfoliated feet with neatly trimmed, clean nails can be nice regardless of gender. It may be because my family tends to have long slender feet (I basically have the exact same foot shape as my dad) so they are on the androgynous side?

OK, that comment totally made it sound like I am sexually fixated on my father's feet. (Which is beside the point!) I just meant that my starting point of reference is for androgynous feet.

This is a strange conversation.

I love disturbing conversations, obviously.

I once tried to explain what made a foot pretty - clean and neat are given, but what I can't quite lay out is for me it's "round" vs. "square." Man feet are squarish, have callouses, and appear just functional. Pretty girl feet appear more...rounded, curvy if you will. I don't usually find skinny girl feet pretty - I think that covers long slender (no offense, just my taste) as well. When toes look like fingers I'm thinking froggy!

Oh god, oh god, toe rings = gross skank.

LOL! Yes, you and I definitely have different tastes... I also love toe-rings!

Both my current partner and my ex-husband have/had very attractive feet. Which were of course lost on me :)
