Where did pedal pumping fetish come from?

The pedal pumping fetish originated from the combination of automotive culture and the allure of foot-focused activities, particularly in the mid-20th century. It gained prominence through media depictions in films, advertisements, and later on the internet, showcasing the act of operating a vehicle's pedals, often highlighting the feet in high heels or bare. This fetish taps into themes of power dynamics, control, and the sensory experience associated with driving, which many find stimulating. Over time, communities and subcultures formed around this interest, further popularizing the fetish.
