I've yet to meet a woman who wasn't into a good foot-rub. It's my go-to opening move for the Netflix-and-Chill date and rarely fails to end in us at least making out. I never really got "foot-fetish" as a guy thing. It struck me more as a girl thing, with women using "rub my feet" as an excuse to initiate intimacy. And some guys just decided if a woman was showing any amount of feet, she must be coming on to him.
I think the issue isn't the presentation of hair, but of femininity. And the more extreme interpretations of this (hardly unique to Islam - Puritanical Christians, orthodox Jews, and other more fanatical patriarchal faiths also demand women hide themselves) are about disguising any aspect of a person that might lead to a man being aroused. Eventually, you're just shoving women into an entirely separate room, because the presumption is that men have zero self-control in any social setting.
