I hope i don't get downvoted for this

Breasts are sexual. They're secondary sex characteristics.
So is thick back hair

Breasts are larger than they need to be, and they're that size all the time. One hypothesis is that they're used to signal sexual maturity and attract mates.
But aside from that, breasts and nipples are definitely a bigger erogenous zone than most parts of the body, probably second only to genitals. And they're directly involved in reproduction as you need them to feed babies.
And most importantly, most societies view them as sexual even if some don't. So what makes something sexual anyway? That's a subjective thing, it works by consensus.
Not everyone's nipples are sensitive FYI.

I became interested in why foot fetishes occur recently.
Basically, it's the same reason why breasts are considered sexual (they aren't); it's all about novelty. If we lived in a nudist colony, neither feet, nor breasts would be considered sexy.
Feet get covered by shoes, making them more novel.
Tribal cultures dont regarded breasts, or feet, as sexy.
Though it begs the question: if nudity became normalized, then what would be novel?
People would find personalities, voices, power dynamics, and fantasies more or less erotic than they are now (for most people).
This doesn't work.
If it were only about novelty, then why aren't there more bellybutton fetishes?
Being a fetish-having person, I can tell you there there is more than just an attraction to the object of your desire. It is a primal, deep, uncontrollable NEED to see or touch the object.
I am not a foot fetishist, so I do not presume to know the intimate details of what they like, but I can promise you, it has nothing to do with novelty. Fetishes have so many variants also; there are foot fetishes, sock fetishes, feet squishing stuff, toenail paint things, some want a footjob, some want to lick them or suck on toes, some people like big feet, small feet, the list goes on and on.

You're not picking up what I'm laying down.
I'm not arguing that feet and breasts aren't capable of providing sexual stimulation from a first person perspective. I'm saying that from a third person perspective, theres nothing about them which inherently arousing; that arousal stems from novelty.

There seems to be ample evidence to the contrary. Whole pornographic industries exist to cater to people aroused by pictures of people in various states of undress.

Even the researchers behind the study say, “I want to stress this finding is not final.” That should tell you something.
The sample size is small and limited to a single cultural group. Meanwhile, we’ve got plenty of anthropological evidence showing that in many societies where breasts are regularly exposed, they’re not treated as sexually arousing. So no, this study doesn’t magically override decades of cross-cultural data.
That said, the idea that breasts signal health or fertility? Sure, obviously. Just like wide hips, clear skin, or symmetrical faces. But biological relevance doesn’t automatically make something a fetish object. We don’t jerk off to white blood cell counts.
And yeah, obesity isn't typically seen as attractive because it signals potential health risks (dont cross post this on tumblr).
The study is interesting, but it doesn’t prove breasts are inherently sexual. It just adds a datapoint to a complex picture where biology and culture play roles.
It's why obese people aren't considered attractive
If you look up the definition of what is considered "obese" for your height, I think you'd find this is largely false.

I'm not surprised since your OP is boilerplate nudist justification and not really any exploration of paraphilia.
I think there's a mile in between puritanical shame and thinking the body isn't and shouldn't be considered sexual and is fit for public consumption. Why is it important to desexualize the human body? What's the benefit?
Gives people the choice whether they want to be sexualized or no. Like you shouldn't have to wear a giant form-disguising hoodie just to keep from being ogled.

Welll for one, giving your partner a foot massage usually ends up in them feeling better. Nobody does that with belly buttons.

And some people are asexual, doesn't mean that most people aren't.

Idk man, I love touching my friend's feet
My cat's paws I mean (My cat is my friend)
I can only touch it for like 1 second and quickly retreat. It's tempting to touch it for longer, but it's risky (I can get PAW'ed; aka: she swings the paws at me)
-
Yeah I'm grateful I'm just into normal things like pain
we like the pain
we like the pain -

What's up with that. Why would you walk through piles of corpses barefoot.
The feeling bro! It’s better than touching grass.
Kudos to the players using the swimsuit skin during the Dualiste fight.

yeah that's how being an organic being works, some people will always differ from the norm, that doesn't really.. mean anything?

I mean sure, you do you. If everyone wore gloves in a parallel timeline, you'd probably want chin scratches.
nah, i have somewhat of a hand fetish and it has nothing to do with how hidden or not they are, i just think hands are inherently attractive if they look nice and feminine. Also big part of it is how sensitive the fingertips are, touching sensitive parts is just always gonna be nice.

So many possibilities just flushed down the toilet...
