#33: Now, That’s a Random Fear
Feet can inspire strong feelings in people. Some folks have a foot fetish and see them as very sexual. Other folks have podophobia, an overwhelming fear of feet. American rapper Sean Combs, professionally known as Diddy, falls into the second category. He’s not creeped out by feet in general; he’s specifically horrified by long second toes.
He’s so obsessed with long second toes that he determines whether or not he’ll date a woman based on her feet. He says that he somehow manages to inspect a woman’s feet on the first date; if her second toe is longer than her big toe, she’s out the door. Hmph. And we thought celebrities weren’t superficial.
