I’m a straight male foot fetishist and, like any other American male, I regularly google my fetish. Last night I ran across a Web site promoting foot-fetish parties in New York City: www.foot-worship-party.com. Have you heard of this event? Is it legit? Is it legal? For a guy with a foot fetish, it seems almost too good to be true–which is why I’m worried. On the other hand, it seems like a great time for someone like me. –Tucson Omits Erotic Services

Jason was working in marketing at a health club in Manhattan when he mustered up enough courage to attend his first foot-fetish party. “It was awful,” he recalls. “The women were not attractive, there were 100 guys to 20 girls, and the people who worked there were really unfriendly. My business mind kicked in and I thought, ‘What if I took this concept and did it right? A better ratio of guys to girls, hot girls with beautiful feet, friendly people?’ Boom, I had my first party, and ever since then I’ve been very successful.”

Entrance to Jason’s foot-worship parties is $150, but women can attend at no charge. “Any woman who wants to drop by and have men worship her feet is more than welcome,” he says. “But we ask women to send an e-mail first with face shot and clear pictures of the tops and bottoms of their feet.”

Drop the bullshit compassion, TMG. Your boyfriend isn’t exploiting a “messed-up kid.” He’s delighting a grown man who’s turned on by slaving away for an alpha-male type. You want it to stop because you don’t want to share your boyfriend–not even his dirty dishes–with anyone else. (And the setup is sexual. Somebody is beating off about those dishes. Hopefully not over them, but definitely about them.) Perhaps you’ll feel differently if your boyfriend orders his slave to clean your apartment too.

Please tell the gay guy who didn’t know how to tell his sex partner he’d been infected with gonorrhea that he can also send him an anonymous e-card with all the necessary information from the following Web site: www.inspot.org. –Been There Done That
