Open Question: Why is foot fetishism PERCEIVED as such a obscence, perverted sexual desire?

[feedcrawler]

why do the media & people look at foot lovers as sick individuals? understanding that their are some bad apples in the bunch that draw negative attention to themselves, why must the foot fetish community continue to be looked down upon (no pun intended)? i mean, it's more in the closet that gays & lesbianism. i mean, everyone have their own kinks... people perceive indulging in the smell, sight, touch or taste of feet as being gross & disgusting but isn't oral sex just as nasty? last time i checked, you couldn't catch a STD by sucking toes. and why is sniffing panties a normal sexual act but shoes aren't? please explain.
