    After my wedding, we had this last Satya Narayan Puja. When it was over, our panditji asked me to touch DH's feet, which I did. After that he said in a very serious tone, "This is the last time you are touching his feet. You must not do it ever again." And I was saved. :) God bless him. I sometimes feel like bribing him to say the same thing for touching MIL's feet. :rotfl

    In our community...everyone touches the feet of elders irrespective of gender.But it is only when you meet after a while and when you leave home for a longer duration.No one is expected to touch feet everyday.I haven't seen anyone literally touch the feet...it is usually a dip with hands touching the leg .

    I have an idea for OP. Instead of touching her MIL's feet, she may try giving tightest/warmest of the hug to the MIL.

    I also touch my MIL feet every day. But today having my periods and she said that I don't like any ones touch during their periods. So I did not touch her feet today. Lets c it she allows me to apply oil on her leg which i do daily at night before sleeping then i will touch from tomorrow other wise Will be touching on next Sunday.
