Default Open Question: How would Evolutionary Psychology explain the existence and persistence of fetishes?

I?m personally rather repulsed by feet. Disgusted, actually. I don?t get it. However, it is one of the more common fetishes.If the Evolutionary Model of Psychology were sound, how would such a fetish manage to be p@ssed down from generation to generation even though it had not reproductive value? In fact, it may have a rather negative effect on one?s ability to procreate.
