Sorry, I meant no disparagement to gays. By "normal", I merely meant someone without a foot fetish. I didn't say "heterosexual" because many heterosexual men have foot fetishes and are attracted only towards women and can have conventional sexual relationships as well.

Sad to see the word 'normal' being used in the place of 'heterosexual. Unfortunately that word is what creates the problem for many gay males who feel they are not normal. I'm not trying to nitpick at your post but we sometimes get gay males posting in here wondering how they can change so they can be 'normal'......
You can't. It's like asking a "normal" guy to stop being turned on by breasts. From some of the other discussions on this website, it gets imprinted on your brain as early as 2 years old. Probably the only reason you want to get rid of it is because you can't find a woman to indulge you. When you meet someone, try to hold off confessing your fetish until she has had time to know you and start to become emotionally attached, but not so long that you become too attached to her in case she dumps you over it (most will). If you satisfy her sexually with what she wants, she might be more willing. Another approach is to use Craigslist personals and be right up front with what you want - the only ones who reply to you will be the ones who will accommodate you.
If it is not a very strong preference and if there is also something else that turns you on, e.g. "classic style" of sex etc...you can try to combine it - I mean while being turned on by foot divide your attention between foot images and classic images. Seems like behavioral conditioning:). For example if you watch some porn, try to find something where foot fetish is presented together with something else (e.g. vaginal intercourse, oral sex or anything which you might like but not so much as foot). Or if you have sex with a partner and you cannot share this fetish with her/him, try to keep this fetish fantasies only in your mind and enjoy other forms of stimulation from your partner at the same time...
