It seems we go over this at least once every six months. Many people have a problem with feet. It's something in the American psyche that has what I would call an anti-fetish with feet. Other cultures have problems with blowing noses, or coughing, etc...Americans have problem with toes. Its the same thing as any other part of the body...they can be clean, they can be dirty. Clean feet should cause you no problem at all, unless they are ON you. And if they are on you, just ask nicely that they be moved...just like if someone had their hand on you.
