8 Types of Foot Worship & How to Worship Feet

Foot worship can be part of BDSM or just part of the foot fetish itself. 

Foot fetishism is quite possibly the most common fetish out there, and foot worship is a natural extension of foot partialism or podophilia.

People with a foot fetish can have a general sexual attraction to all things feet, but most have specific interests. Certain kinds of feet, parts of the foot, or aspects of feet and footwear bring them intense sexual arousal and pleasure, while other aspects don’t. This is in step with other kinds of body partialism or fetishes in general.

There are many kinds of foot fetishism, in other words. People may have a fetish for the foot odor, for manicured feet, for huge feet, for long toenails, for the arch of the foot, for rough feet, for ballet slippers, flip flops or stilettos.

And for some, the thrill of feet is in the act of worshipping them, often from a place of submission.

What is Foot Worship? 

Foot worship can be an important part of any foot fetish because it provides the fetishist with sexual pleasure. Worshipping at a lover’s feet can also be a key part of BDSM play.

Foot worship is just as it sounds: worshipping the feet.

Adoring the foot, and treating it reverently and religiously can be part of a foot worship, and gives the foot lover the opportunity to look at, touch, pamper, smell, massage, wash, pedicure, and revere the foot.

In a BDSM context, foot worship provides domination and submission as part of a kinky power exchange dynamic. Foot worship provides physical and psychological pleasure to foot fetishists and to Dom and sub partners.

8 Kinds of Foot Worship 

There are different types of foot worship and different ways to worship the foot. 

1. Goddess Foot Worship 

Foot worship can be part of BDSM goddess worship. Goddess worship is a classic kink practice of subservient males adoring and doing the bidding of their female dominant, treating her like a deity.

Goddess foot worship is a natural expression of his submission and her dominance. He may massage her feet, kiss them, perfume them, lick them, clean her boots, kiss the arch of her foot, and anything else that she allows or requests.

Touching and handling someone’s foot is a very intimate act, so any sub who is allowed to touch his goddess’ feet should feel very grateful. Goddess foot worship usually takes place on your knees.

2. Femdom Foot Worship

Femdom is a more modern manifestation of female domination. It is the age old desire of the submissive male to serve and worship his female superior, but can have a harder edge and often involves feminization or humiliation of the submissive.

Femdom is as much about the female desire to dominate men, dominating for her own sexual pleasure rather than his. Femdom foot worship is an important part of this dominance and submission play.

Femdom foot worship includes everything she allows or requests, from touching and pedicuring to licking. It includes trampling fetishes, where she walks on him, with or without shoes or boots, or trampling on his face, body, or cock and balls. It can include foot oral, not just kissing and licking but oral penetration and gagging.

3. Self Foot Worship

Some foot lovers are turned on by their own feet and engage in what is called self foot worship. Stroking, looking at, jacking off over, and especially sucking on your own feet are what self foot worship is all about.

4. Sleepy Foot Worship

Some foot lovers have a thing for touching, smelling, licking, or masturbating with someone’s feet while they are asleep. This is sometimes called sleepy foot worship. 

Sleepy foot worship is sometimes about the thrill of the unsuspecting person, in a sexualized context. It can be when someone is too shy to worship feet at a Dom’s command. Or it could be that someone is also turned on by a partner being asleep or submissive to their partner’s impulses.

You definitely need someone’s consent to worship their feet while they are sleeping.

5. Nylon Foot Worship 

The nylon fetish is another massively popular fetish, especially among older gentlemen who remember when most women wore nylons and made dicks everywhere rock hard.

Pantyhose are way less common today as women are more likely to wear jeans or slacks or yoga pants than skirts and nylons to the office. But the combined foot fetish and nylon fetish is enormously common.

Nylon foot worship is when someone worships feet that are wearing nylons. Nylon foot worship includes sniffing the foot odor in the nylons, dressing and undressing the foot in nylons, and rubbing the nylons against their genitalia.

6. Sweaty/Dirty Feet Worship 

Some foot lovers have a thing for clean and pretty feet with lovely pale pink toenails, lemony fresh. Others want to worship sweaty, dirty feet.

It makes sense that dirty foot worship is part of humiliation and degradation, as well as submission and dominance. But it is not always a BDSM power exchange thing. Some foot lovers simply get off on the smell of sweaty feet.

7. Public Foot Worship 

Public foot worship is usually about intense domination and submission, about being humiliated in public, which amplifies the embarrassment. There are many erotic confessions floating around about being subjected to a girlfriend’s filthy feet in the face on public transit or in the workplace.

Public foot worship is a hot fantasy for femdom humiliation and degradation, and BDSM. And it may work in some contexts, such as at a swimming pool or shoe store. There are exhibitionist and voyeur aspects to public foot worship as well.

8. Forniphilia Foot Worship 

Forniphilia foot worship is a type of foot worship that is about BDSM, submission, and about being human furniture. You can be a human foot rest and uphold your femdom’s beautiful tootsies while she watches tv or talks on the phone, relaxing after work while treating you like furniture.

How to Worship Her Feet

If you love feet and foot worship, you know that there are many ways to express your appreciation. Sometimes it’s easy to fall into a routine, though, and forget to mix it up.

Here are four foot worship ideas you can use to take your foot fetish beyond your standard toe-sucking extravaganza.

1. Give Her a Sexy Pedicure

Break out the lotions, scrubs and nail polishes because it’s time to treat your lady to a private session at the foot spa! Start by giving her a neck and shoulder massage, then bring her a glass of wine or her favorite herbal tea. Put on some soothing music, then get to work scrubbing, exfoliating and beautifying those toes.

There are lots of nice scrubs on the market, made with really high quality ingredients. You can even buy edible scrubs to make sucking on her toes all that more inviting. Just be sure to suck them before you apply the lotion or polish. And never share nail care tools! It’s very unhygienic and can lead to serious health issues.

2. Massage Her Beautiful Feet

If you’re not big on polishes and scrubs, why not use massage oil to rub out the tensions of the day? Light some candles and invite your partner to lie back as you slip off her shoes and start working your magic. Focus on her toes and arches, but don’t forget about the rest of her feet (and calves).

Let her tell you what she needs and what she enjoys about foot worship. Maybe she’s sore and sensitive and needs a lighter touch, or maybe she’s ticklish and needs you to be firm. She is the boss and you must obey her or she won’t grant you access to her sexy feet ever again.

3. Take Her Shoe Shopping

One way to express foot worship and get on her feet’s good side is to treat them to a beautiful pair of high heels! Surprise your lady by taking her to the store and telling her that she can choose any pair of shoes that her heart desires. If she’s a shoe fanatic, she’ll be super thrilled.

Don’t worry if you don’t have a ton of money. Shoes can be really expensive or not depending on where you go and for a lot of women, the excitement is in the choosing, not in the money spent. If she insists on only the most high-end imported brands, you might have to save up for a bit, but as a true foot worshipper, you know it’s worth it in the end.

4. Buy Her Silk Stockings

What good is a new pair of shoes without something luxurious to wear underneath? Get her a pair of silk stockings, then surprise her with them after you’ve given her that sexy foot massage. Slip them on before you start and things will be that much hotter.

You won’t miss the massage oil because the silky texture of the stockings will provide more than enough slide. If you’re going to introduce the massage oil, just be sure that the stockings are nowhere near as you don’t want to stain them.

The ideas above are especially good for introducing foot worship to someone who who is new to BDSM or not ready for the domination aspect of foot play. For more tips, take a look at the video above.
