Very little disgusts me more than the normalization of foot fetishism. The particular interest of the foot has always been in its subdued quality; It is neither a sexually differentiated organ nor particularly involved in the sexual process, and so far removed from sexuality that it receives a kind of purity by extension. In concert with its 'purity' is the uncleanliness inherent to the nature of the foot; Feet, by nature, are made for walking, and in walking, they must connect with dirt. While feet are not in and of themselves unclean, the dualism of purity (by their total non-involvement in sexuality) and dirtiness inherent to their purpose is attractive. One must shed the natural inclination to avoid filth, and accept the foot for what it is—a beautiful part of someone's body.

It used to be that feet were always tactfully displayed, modest, and rare in themselves. Whenever you saw a foot in art or games, even in writing, it was a purely non-sexual affair. The beauty of a woman's feet comes from its asexuality. When it is sexualized, it loses its purity, and even moreso when the woman sexualizes her own feet. Now that every appearance of feet in art or games is some bawdy display, the whole thing has lost its lustre.

The whole foot-climate is ruined. Alice of the Teyvat Travel Guide (1st) wrote:
>The three hilichurl tribes Meaty tribe, the Sleeper tribe, and the Eclipse tribe located in this valley are all densely populated. What if we built a huge spinning ball-shaped cell in the center of the valley and threw all of the hilichurls into it? That way we might be able to generate enough energy to power all the mills in Mondstadt for at least five years. If we took it one step further by grinding the hilichurls that are too old or too weak into food and feeding them to the strong ones, we might just build ourselves a perpetual motion machine that can support a huge factory like in Snezhnaya!
And one could only hope that all foot fetishes suffer a similar fate.
