Taboo Science is a podcast that answers the questions you're not allowed to ask. It's hosted by Ashley Hamer, a science writer and podcaster. Every episode dives into a different societal taboo to understand the science that makes it tick, the reasons we don't talk about it, and the impact that has on society at large. Why don't we eat people? Why are my swear words different than my parents'? And what makes porn, porn? It's science class if science class had one of those anonymous question boxes. It's Taboo Science.

<p>Ever wondered why some people have a thing for feet? In this final Philias episode, we're flying feet first into foot fetishes. Social psychologist Dr. Justin Lehmiller breaks down the origins of fetishes (and the truth to that "crossed wires in the brain" factoid), while writer and "Educatrix" Tina Horn gives us the lowdown on why feet can be such a turn-on. We also step into the cultural aspects of foot fascination and debunk some common misconceptions. Whether you're a foot fanatic yourself or just interested in what makes people tick, this episode will shed light on a often misunderstood aspect of human sexuality. So go ahead, press play and put your feet up—and maybe snap a pic or two while you're at it.</p><p>Resources from Dr. Justin Lehmiller:</p><ul><li>Website: <a href="https://www.sexandpsychology.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.sexandpsychology.com/</a></li><li>Book: <a href="https://amzn.to/4cCcyqm" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://amzn.to/4cCcyqm</a></li><li>Podcast: <a href="https://www.sexandpsychology.com/podcasts/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.sexandpsychology.com/podcasts/</a></li><li>Twitter/X: <a href="https://x.com/JustinLehmiller" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://x.com/JustinLehmiller</a></li><li>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/justinjlehmiller/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/justinjlehmiller/</a></li></ul><br/><p>Resources from Tina Horn:</p><ul><li>Website:<a href="https://tinahorn.net/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://tinahorn.net/</a></li><li>Book: <a href="https://amzn.to/45YPJuw" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://amzn.to/45YPJuw</a></li><li>Podcast: <a href="https://tinahorn.net/yapit" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://tinahorn.net/yapit</a></li><li>Twitter/X: <a href="https://x.com/tinahornsass" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://x.com/tinahornsass</a></li><li>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/tinahornsass" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/tinahornsass</a></li></ul><br/><p>See citations and a transcript here: <a href="https://www.tabooscience.show/047-foot-fetishes/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.tabooscience.show/047-foot-fetishes/</a></p><p>Need music for a project?
