How did your tickle fetish originate?

I think mine is hereditary. My whole family on my father's side seems to be fascinated with tickling and feet. My nephew is 5 years old, and if I'm not watching out for him, he'll be under the table trying to take my shoes off. :woot:
 
Hmmm...*ponders the past*

I guess it started when I was a little girl. I've always been a little stronger than most and I absolutely LOVE sneaking up behind people and getting their sides...Tee hee...Control, when given, is an experience that is easy to get addicted to...

As for me getting tickled...I never really noticed any other affect than laughing...until I got involved with Viper...And things are just now starting to get interesting.

As for being helpless...I always knew something was "weird" about me when I would tell my b/f to pin me down...heh.
 
hello

my love for tickling started back when i used to get tickled by older kids on the street. I was friends with a girl till the 4 grade when she moved away a year below me and always wanted me to tickle her feet and loved being tickled. we had tons of tickle fights and when her friend came over it was two on one them on me. i remember one day she said i want you to tickle me but you can't hold me down like the older kids so she pulled out some rope and asked if i would tie her up. so i could tickle her with out her being able to get free since i could not hold her down that was short lived cause almost right after i got her as tied up as a forth grader could her mom called and she had to come home. later in my life i was at a xxx store and found a tied and tickled mag and was relived that i was not alone. later and happy tickles if you get them tickmankyle1 aka ugly kid joe
 
I'd say it was inborn but no one in my family shares my interest(in that or anything). I used to like being tickled when younger but it wasn't sexual until a good deal later. I think it just ties into my desire for submission as all my other fetishes do as well.
 
When I was four years old I was supposed to take a nap midmorning, but I'd outgrown naptime and was always wide awake so I'd masturbate like crazy (humping a teddie bear) while fantasizing that a group of women wearing bathing suits were passing me back and forth over icy cold water in a swimming pool. I was turned on by the fear that they would slowly lower me into cold water. That was my first sex fantasy and I masturbated to it for years. Then, sometime while approaching puberty, the fantasy switched from fear of being lowered into cold water to fear of women overpowering and tickling me which at the time was a physical possibility. The two fantasies are similar and involve loss of control and helplessness to sensory stimulation. Through my teen years I kept masturbating to fantasies about strong sexy women dominating, outwrestling, and tickling me though as I got older and started lifting weights the scenarios became physically unlikely.

One day I discovered a copy of The Joy of Sex in the closet and learned about bondage. The book even had a chapter about it with a picture of a man tied down, a woman sitting on him; and the author mentioned foot tickling: how it was torture for some but it turned on other people out of their minds. Soon my sex fantasies graduated from the less likely being outwrestled to simply being tied down. I imagined being shamed, being forced to admit I was ticklish, panicking--fearing she would never stop, and begging for mercy.

Women getting tickled turned me on too but originally it was more the idea of provoking revenge. As I've gotten older though, I've begun having more fantasies in which I'm the tickler and the woman is laughing frantically and helplessly.
basically same deal, but based in a hair fetish (with tickling).....For some reason the entire fear thing I haven't gotten around, so I like to tickle instead of being tickled
 
The original fascination of control was surely foundational. I still don't think the word "control" quite nails the feeling of the situations taking place in my early imagination. At the time (when my vocabulary was simpler), I thought of it as "being able to make someone do something," a thought which is deeply exciting to a person who might desire to cause someone to do something embarrassing.

A lot of people cite the Olive Oyl cartoon as one of their childhood fixations. I remember being fascinated by one that didn't involve tickling at all: a Donald Duck cartoon in which I believe he'd swallowed the key after selfishly locking away a stock of candy from his trick-or-treating nephews, who recruit a sympathetic witch to set him straight. She employs a magic substance which she sprays onto his legs, allowing her to "command" them to work (in ways that were presumably intended to be comical) for the cause of the triplets.

Another childhood media encounter which I haven't heard mentioned yet by other members is an R.L. Stine "Give Yourself Goosebumps" book in which you (as the "Choose Your Own Adventure"-esque main character) can find yourself escorted into a feather-filled room and tickled to death by a horde of tiny trained primates.

I also remember a number of passages from The Joy Of Sex almost word-for-word. It's a tasteful and accessible book for a sex manual, and while most of it was rather docile, a few passages really focused on the feeling of taking advantage of the involuntary reactions of a helpless loved one.

These are the things that fueled my earlier fantasies, and they might help explain why I think the mutual exploration of fantasies (through stories and art) can be so much more erotic than real-life experiences.

The concept of "making someone do something" lends itself to an entire list of fetishes, and tickling-- with its power to dissolve the facades of even the most stringent humans into undignified silliness-- collected my attention rapidly.
 
It began with two nurses at a physio class I went to when I was much younger who used to tickle me at the end of the sessions. From then on it facinated me more and more, everything from the psycology of it to the fact a little stroke of an area of the body can creat so much power over someone. The fact that it does not matter who you are, how old, how rich, how intelligent, what religion or backgorund, anyone can capitulate into a helpless jelly like ball of hysteria at the gentlest of touches and everybody, with the exception of the few who are not ticklish, is equal in the laughter a tickle can illicite.

I am obviosuly greatful tot hose two nurses who I will doubtless never come across again, and I would not know even if I did, as tickling is a wonderful thing.
 
Tickling has been a part of my life since I can remember. As a small boy (starting at about 5) once my older siblings discovered how extreme my ticklishness was I became a constant target..sometimes which I invited. I remember the more I was tickled the more I liked it! That developed into very vivid recurring dreams of many gloved hands that came out from under the bed a bedtime , pulling the covers up to expose my feet , pinning me down spread eagle , unbuttoning my pajama top and pulling off sox if I had them on and receiving a brutal armpit , rib and foot tickling so vivid I woke up with my arms over my head giggling my ass off. Soon my interests turned to both leeing and lerring...In my house back then house rules were shoes came off when you came in , so I was presented with the views of feet ( mostly in hose) through out my early childhood. HS I began fetishly tickling and developing my fetishes for tickling and feet
 
I've been fascinated with tickling my entire life. My earliest memories include being tickled by my older sister. I'd actually ask for it. I'd lie down on my back, and she'd tickle my belly. And when she'd stop, I'd always ask for more. I also remember having fantasies about going to the circus and being tickled by the clowns, and enjoying every minute of it. Then at some point, I'm not sure when or how, but I became more of a 'ler then a 'lee. I would always be tickling my friends, especially if their belly was exposed. Back then in my childhood, it was purely tickling. Then as I got older, well you know. But, I've had this tickling/belly fetish pretty much since day 1.
 
Wow these stories are amazing! thanks so much for sharing everyone.

I suppose it my turn. Tickling has been in my life forever! but my real fascination came when I was in middle school. 8th grade I think it was. My friends and I used to mow lawns and play in a band. We used to tickle the person who missed or played the wrong note! it just sort of clicked that I loved to be and to tickle people every since!
 
I remember when I was little (maybe 10 or so?) my dad tickled my mom while we were all in the car and she laughed really loudly and I felt something strange lurch in my stomach. I thought it was fear at the time so I yelled for my dad to stop and both my parents looked at me confusedly. My dad assured me that he wasn't hurting my mom but I was unable to shake the feeling of uncertainty and that surrounded the event for several years after.

Now that I'm older and can look back on it, I think I was turned on by what was happening but didn't understand what the feeling was. I was essentially scared of it. About two years ago I started to become more comfortable with the fact that this is a fetish that has been ingrained in me since I was little. While I've only told two people I'm close with, I'm still a little embarrassed by it and fear what would happen if others found out. I hope that someday I'll be able to be loud and proud about it!

I can't believe I haven't put my 2 cents in this thread yet! Any way, I think I was around four when I started with my tickling fascination. I had two different areas of interest. One was the desire to tickle mature women's nylon covered feet. And by "mature" I was talking about 25 or 30 year olds. Remember, I was around 4 at the time! And the other was tickling my childhood friend. Tickling him happened much more regularly because it was easy. And at that age, gender made no difference. I would get him on his stomach and sit on his legs and tickle his feet until he finally got away. Eventually, I started tying him up as best I could. (which wasn't very good.) I would tickle him until he would get loose, which usually only took him a little while longer than getting away when I was holding him down. He struggled pretty hard, because he was really ticklish on his feet. The times I succeeded in tying him up good enough that he couldn't escape, something would happen that would cause the time I had to tickle him be shortened.
As I got older, I moved and tickled not only my childhood buddies, but their sisters too! Then, when I reached puberty, all that changed. I only wanted to tickle girls! And I think I tickled pretty much every girl/woman I've ever been with. And I tied up most every gal that I spent any amount of time with and tickled them.
 
I got bitten by a radioactive ticke-fetishist... I didn't get any super powers but now I can feel my face get hot when I hear/see tickling in public, that's cool I guess.
 
Cartoons watching as a kid, then old school tv shows, and the movies.
 
Interesting topic...

I think that, to a certain extent, we are 'wired' for the disposition towards tickling. We can choose to bring out these traits, or not. I remember watching cartoons on the television as a small child, and if there was a tickling scene in it, I would get all weak and panicky feeling. This would quickly pass when the tickling scene was finished. I agree with several of the other members, that part of the fascination for me is the element of control. At a time in our lives as little children, we want people to like us. We want everybody to be happy. An expression of being happy is laughter... So in a way, (for me anyway) tickling was a way to 'force' happiness onto others.

Ok, who wants to be next for this analytical couch?
 

There was no single "moment" that got me Into it: I have always just loved the idea of being tickled (since I was about 5-6 or so).
It wasn't totally a "sexual" thing for me being that young, but it wasn't "not" either. Something about it was always really exciting to me. :)
I would often lay in bed at night and just fantasize about myself being tickled before I fell asleep.
It wasn't until I was about 11-12 (during puberty) where I became much more into it sexually.
But I didn't know tickling was a fetish. Honestly, I thought I had a foot fetish because I knew that existed, and feet & tickling sort of "go together".
Well, when my family got our first computer I typed in foot fetish stuff on google, and it didn't do much of anything for me. Out of curiosity I typed in "tickle torture", and realized that tickling was in fact a real paraphillia. I also realized that was my thing - not feet. :)

For a long time, I thought I was the only one in the world who thought tickling was sexy. Other kids I grew up with would have tickle fights and stuff, but I always thought it was "inappropriate".
It's hard to explain, but even before I knew it was a fetish, I thought the whole idea of tickling was a very sexual activity by nature. Something that only couples should do it to each other. Not by friends of the same gender, and NEVER by other family members!
~ I still think that today, even though I now know tickling is not a sexual activity for the majority of other people. :p

In Sum:
***I knew I was "into" tickling since I was about 5
***I knew I had a tickling fetish at age 12
 
Like, honestly, hell if I know. I think I first got interested in it when I was like...14 or so, just sort of a thing. I had just discovered that...my god, the Internet is like, a place you can go to see stuff.

Puberty just kinda struck I guess and I stumbled onto a tickling thing on Youtube, got interested, and sorta found this place eventually, along with Theater and realized there was kind of a community. Once I was of proper age, I joined up, and now you're all stuck with me.
 
I've always liked threads like this, illustrating how 'it' all started for people.

With me, it began with a fetish for stocking feet from when I was about four or five. I had no idea what it was at the time, I just knew that I'd get a nice feeling in my 'tummy' whenever I saw stocking feet on TV or (even better) in real life. This fascination with stocking feet was, I believe, a natural progression to obtaining a tickling fetish.

My first experience of seeing stocking feet tickled was the David Copperfield/Catherine Bach 'zig zag lady' trick. Okay, they weren't her real feet being tickled, but the fact that I was seeing nylon feet tickled was a big deal for seven year old me. Four years later, I had my first consensual stocking foot tickle with my aunt (having her feet tickled relaxes her), and it's all gone from there.

Cheers, everybody,

Not quite sure but, the earliest memory was around age 14 a girl in my year in high school i found out later liked me, we always got sat together because of the way the register worked and she would poke me all the time so i'd get her back at lunch and hold her down and tickle her. Then the liking to tummy/belly tickling i have no idea where that came from probably seeing a girl showing off her stomach i associated that to tickling, then i found tickling videos and ever since then its kinda stuck.
 
Mine started with my neighbors daughter Tina every now and then she would spend the night and I'd sneak into my sisters room where she would be sleeping and her feet would be uncovered and the rest is history to this day over 30 years later I still have the image of her barefeet etched in my mind
 
I think I first started with having a foot fetish. I distinctly remember being around 5 years old at my uncle's place on Christmas Eve. His brother was perpetually single, but always had some "lady of the evening" types to keep him company, haha. So that night I'm being a regular dumb ass kid and am crawling around underneath the table fucking with people's legs and whatnot. When I get to my other uncle's friend, though, she returns the favor by basically playing footsie with my face. Dear god, lol, I am having a serious flashback just typing this scenario out. Aaanyway, I was under that table for a solid 15 licking her foot and having it rubbed all over my face. Jesus Christ, lady! Look what you've done!

I'm 30 now, so I was growing up when the Internet was really getting mainstream. Ah, AOL 3.0... Anyway, my foot fetish must have still been locked away somewhere inside me, but thank the Internet for being the awakening catalyst. After finding FM Concepts it was a sealed deal. Not sure how I found it, but god damn, I did. I first saw their foot fetish photos and then the tickling, which immediately interested me. The rest is history as probably 80% of the folks have said in here, haha. FM Concepts and SW Tickle got me to where I am today!
