Not even former lawmen know that trying to score sex play for pay on MySpace is a bad idea. Going to trial this week is Michael J. Curtin, a fired cop from Pennsylvania who tried to offer $1000 each to a pair of teenagers if he could suck their toes. The sad thing is, there's nothing criminal about the whole foot fetish thing: except the minors, the money, and MySpace.

Especially sad when there's legal places to get under a pretty girl's feet without getting arrested. Footnight organizes fetish parties where fetishists can, lapdance-style, offer tips to to women in exchange for massaging, licking, or sucking their toes and feet. Members'-only areas give foot guys a chance to review girls' photos before they show up, too. This would be an appropriate use of a social network to get kinky, but probably not one lawmakers will cite when attempting to regulate online sex negotiations — especially not if they rely on cops of Curtin's ilk to do the policing for them.
