Hi all, I have asked the question to many female fitness models and female bodybuilders. I'm sure for many of you this might not be your cup of tea...but from the girls who were more open to talk about there ticklishness, many mentioned that when they are 'shredded' that their skin is incredibly sensitive. Others gave me some blow-off answers and weren't to thrilled about the question. In any case I used the "With muscles so toned and tight, how ticklish can you be? Where at?" question that Bandit put to use in a Maxim chat. In any case, I'll list the ladies answers.

Kara Lynn: "I'm not sure if I'm more ticklish now than before, but I definetely hate to be tickled! It tickles most to be grabbed at my lower waist where my hip-bones are...so there! Now you know what not to do!"
Natalie Barnett: "I am ticklish, but not more ticklish during contest season than during off season."
Mikayla Miles: "Yes, the soles of my feet are very ticklish. I have a spot on my arches that drives me nuts when I am tickled there. For some reason it is just that one little spot..Oh my, just thinking about it makes me wiggle!"
Bethany Howlett: "I am very ticklish everywhere indeed!"
Heather Bayer: "Just to let you know I am not remotely ticklish when I am that low in bodyfat. It actually hurts to get a back massage let alone getting tickled."
Sherry Ann Boudreau: "Of course I'm ticklish. We have ticklish feelings coming from our nerve endings."
Sherri McCall: "I'm not very ticklish."
Karen Shingle: "Well, I have always been very ticklish..so I honestly couldn't tell you if I am more now...sorry."
Heather Lee: "Yes, my underarms! My belly...hmmmm, it is ticklish, but to consider it erotic or torture would depend on how long and how much it was tickled!"
Amber DeLuca: "I am not really that ticklish, but sexually I am."
Suzanna McGee: "I am as ticklish as any other person, muscles or not...isn't it about the sensitivity of the skin?"
Gayle Moher: "It depends on who's doing the tickling."
Maria Calo: "I'm not too ticklish, but we can find out, whatever is fun is OK with me."
Lauren Powers: "My feet, the bottoms and then my sides. Sometimes I loose control and go crazy if the person has me tied down and I can't control it!"
Melisa Ann: "Yes, I am ticklish; my knees, feet and tummy!"
Kristi Pugh: "I'm very ticklish on my ribs! Ha!"
Lynn McCrossin: "Yes I am ticklish, but that is for me to know and you to find out!!!"
Nicole Bass: "Yes, I love to be tickled, but you have to get me first, hint!!! Feet and underarms, ribs too, LOL."
Melissa Coates: "Of course I can be ticklish! Feet especially and stomach! I am sometimes ticklish on my inner thighs."
Erin Toughill: "LOL, I am soooooo ticklish! Mostly in the rib area."
Jody May: "OK, I will agree, very funny question. And yes I am still very ticklish, everywhere!"
Angie Salvagno: "That is a funny question! I can tell you one thing - I am extremely ticklish on my knees, thighs, underarms, feet and my butt. I am pretty much ticklish all over. LOL."
Brenda Kelly: "Your question is funny! I suppose skin sensitivity remains the same. You're tickling the skin sensors, not muscle tissue. I am ticklish on the bottoms of my feet, I have been my whole life."
Selma McPherson: "Yes...on my feet and ribs."
Debi Laszewski: "I'm just as ticklish as the next."
Kathy Connors: "I'm not very ticklish at all...a little on the waist."
Andrulla Blanchette: "Yes, I can be ticklish."
April Kohler: "The bottoms of my feet, around my neck and under my arms."
Helena Jenkins: "I really don'y have many spots that I am ticklish. If I had to pick one spot it would probably be my underarms."
Julie Havelka: "Of Course! I am ticklish like anyone else - on the stomach and sides and under the arms. Funny question!"
Erica Kern: "Yes, we can be ticklish..the nerve endings are even more exposed when you're lean. As far as where I'm ticklish..it really depends on my mood. Sides and knees are always sensitive though!"
Annie Rivieccio: "I am ticklish. I'm ticklish all over if I'm in the right mood."
Rikki Rife: "I'm not sure if it has anything to do with muscles. But I have never really been ticklish. Of course, it sure is fun having someone try though!"
Dana Westerfield: "It's been such a long time since I've been tickled; I'm not sure. I don't recall being extra ticklish when lean. I guess I could be ticklish anywhere under the right situation."
Joanna Thomas: "It depends on how I'm touched. I am ticklish, but not as much as when I was a child."
Myriam Bustamante: "Our sensitivity increases, because we drop our bodyfat to 5% or so. This means that the skin on our body turns as thin as an onion skin. I'm not ticklish. I can't stand to be touched on my feet and fingers, but it is not really ticklish. It feels really weird to me."
So there you have it...some claim to be extra ticklish and sensitive when ripped and some deny it. The conundrum of muscularity and skin sensitivity continues.
