Brokeback On The Highway: Hard-Revvin’ Hairy Feet
There is a very strange place where homosexual foot worship and macho automobile enthusiasm collide to form one of the most unlikely niche fetishes I’ve ever seen: pedal pumping. Pedal pumping revolves around the interest in seeing feet - usually bare or in white socks - pumping the gas pedal of a car. Only occasionally does this involve any nudity - usually it’s just the feet, which almost makes it more bizarre.
Although there is female pedal pumping, gay male pedal pumping is more fascinating because it seems to go at odds with the macho nature of redneck dudes who like to drive their cars and trucks fast. It’s kind of like a foot-centric “Brokeback Mountain” meets “The Fast And The Furious.”
For pedal porn enthusiasts, this site offers a collection of amateur pumping videos on VHS, which feature various men revving the engines of their cars. Kevin’s page offers a video series entitled “Redneck Guys,” with the following description: “Watch as my buddies work the pedals in their monster trucks, mud trucks, and old muscle cars. Lots of hard starting, pumping, and good hard revving!” And of course, all the while, you’ll be watching their sexy hairy feet.
Whitesox38’s Male Pedal Pumping Site has a number of free galleries featuring feet in various stages of pumping, with macho tag lines like “Hawker knows how to pump and drive his Taurus HARD!!!” All of the pictures and videos are essentially identical - just feet on pedals, feet on pedals, and more feet on pedals. I’m sure there’s a great deal of nuance to all of this that I’m missing, but it seems like one would get rather bored jacking off to the same types of pictures over and over again. Is it the variance in footwear that keeps it exciting? Are certain types of cars more boner-inducing than others? I guess the incredibly limiting nature of the fetish might do well to explain its somewhat limited presence on the internet. At least there’s no shortage of general male foot devotion.
Thanks again to Tamar for sending me this one.

You’re a snazzier wordsmith than all the hacks at Slate and Salon combined.
Anyhoo, this one befuddles me. Compared to some of the shit on here, it’s downright chaste. I’m a gay guy, but I find some of the sicker straight stuff on your blog easier to comprehend than this. It’s such a strangely double-constricted supernarrow fetish niche, it could only have found a group after the web had been around for FIFTEEN YEARS. All of the stuff on here makes me wonder “How does such a fixation start?” but this one has me asking… “so then where does it go? Please keep it up. You fucking kill me.
