What's WIth The Shoes?

After posting a dirty little Jenna Haze clip I love (click here to see it) I got the following response from a reader:

What's with the shoes in porn movies?! And, once you clarify what's up with that, maybe you can answer the age old question - why to the women almost always leave them on?!

Shoe fetish, my dear!

A fetish for shoes is probably the most common sexual obsession for men and women. It's tame enough that people don't have guilt or fear of social stigma when enjoying it. The heel in particular stimulates the male subconscious making them think "Penis" - and amazingly, straight men are very penis obsessed, even if it's just their own they're thinking about.

Also, the heel forces the calf muscles to tense, making legs look sexier. It lifts the ass into the air by curving the lower back, and adding the benefit of putting the chest out. It forces women to move carefully, making the body look more graceful in motion, because each step is literally a decision. No woman wants to fall flat on her face.

The rumour with keeping shoes on in pornography: You can legally argue, the woman isn't naked. Back when porn was more doggedly stigmatized, and the word "nudity" was the legal term being used against porn producers. They dodged a bullet by keeping shoes on the girls, at least giving them valid legal grounds to say she wasn't naked. At the very least it could buy time in court. Whether this is true, or urban myth, I know not.

Also, in the taping of a porn, taking off the shoes is usually ungraceful and awkward. With straps it can be time consuming. This all causes the shoot to loose momentum. Momentum is very important when dealing with a male's penis. A porn set probably has staff that are paid to be there: make up artists, wardrobe, maybe a light guy, the camera man, possibly assitants. Producers are on a budget, and have probably limited access to set space. Things need to go as smoothly as possible. A man with a limp penis, disrupts a porn set.

"It's the light," they claim.

Let me ask you this question. Don't turn on a single porn clip, just think about it.

What are the men wearing on their feet? Shoes? Socks? Bare Feet? No idea?
