I'm a switch myself, but in the category of "willing to just be 'lee, prefer to do both, not interested in being only 'ler." So I lean 'leeward.

I'm also in the same ballpark as those who prefer more constructive criticism, but honestly, the truth of this thread is that it's really about "What I personally prefer not to read in a fic." That being said: 1) Noncon. Yeah, it's popular, yeah it's just fantasy, and if you're not actually...

Because this well-intentioned idea makes me all various kinds of uncomfortable, I'm going to bring up yet another very real concern: Us vs Them. It is all fine and lovely for you as an admin to say that it is not a "requirement" to be Verified, but there's a very real possibility, and you know...

Wow. Just... damn. Part of me almost can't believe this happens, but then again, I see crazy things all the time. I'm sorry this is a thing, and yeah, it should go away.

Interesting thread. Hopefully it remains honest and respectful. Agreed with OP on judging ticklishness based on other traits, but similarly, I would like to see an end to the fallacy that once gender, age group, etc, can be regarded as inherently better ticklers. Anybody who gives proper...

I have seen the argument of "that's fine, as long as we don't have to see it" come up many many times, in many many situations, over many many issues, and it's almost always about how a perceived (and sometimes not even actual) majority want things to be catered to them. It's not about...

Nope, you're not the only one. My entire belly is unbelievably ticklish, but especially that one spot.

I try to remind myself that many people are from different countries, and politics are often quite different in other places, but at least from a USA perspective, any "new puritanism" type behavior is almost overwhelmingly conservative, and it is the progressives who fight against it. You...

If it's what I think it is, it measures the strain that moderate exercise (like walking a treadmill) puts on your heart. The way they get the readings, though, is by sticking little sensor stickers all over your chest area... I had them on my ribs and sides the last time they had to check mine...

Just a quick note, and one I think needs clarifying, people with gender dysphoria are not "catfish." When people talk about "catfishing," it's about deception of another person to get something you want, and implies using another person. People with gender dysphoria have utterly different...

I forget what thread it was, but it was recent... the thread, the OP, and all the replies were about tickling in general, and somebody ended up making a post -assuming- that this -obviously- meant a foot fetish, and actually referred to that instead of tickling, as if they were one and the same...

Let me say, first of all, that I like your quote, and I do try to be the kind of person who appreciates a person's right to say things I disagree with. Let me see if I can throw a little extra clarification into the mix, though. And although I used your post, let me also be very clear that it's...

While I couldn't make out the actual implications of the original post itself, which was oddly confusing... the title sounded like it was trying to make an entirely different comparison to me: is it a sexual fetish, or is it primarily a craving for a specific kind of touch (or reaction, in the...

I'm pretty certain it's my belly that's my hyperticklish spot... but there have been a few times that somebody has gotten me under my arms and made me second-guess that.

While I love the spirit of this, especially the example the OP posted, I have to throw in a word of caution regarding a misconception on the current meaning, because I wouldn't want anybody to get upset over something intended in good spirits. The term "trigger" is not actually a pejorative...
