Cringe city. What's wrong with people? Can we not do this? haha
 
I don't think it's indicative of a hidden op, but is indicative of someone who couldn't stay chill...rip...

Women endure harassment all the time. It's just that, in this case, it involves bondage and tickling fetishism.
 
This is just a modern version of "The Question" and it's just as crummy as it was before social media.

All versions of "The Question" basically come down to pure objectification of the individual they are directed at. They all posit "Will the target supply an answer that will let me get my jollies off?" and are 100% inward looking and about the askers own pleasure, with zero thought of the subject as a person.

No hidden operation here, just someone being a clod.

I love how the OP's initial reaction was not that it was bad in and of itself, but how it makes the rest of us look.

To that I have to say that this isn't some isolated incident or "secret op" - this "community" has a reputation for a reason. Otherwise, what Myriads said.

This ^ .

And one need look no further than this forum to find cringeworthy posts within seconds.

As one of the old guard who pre-date the TMF, I can attest that this kind of thing has always been around. As soon as I hear or read "the question", my radar always kicks in to analyse the motivation behind the asking of it.

One of the most embarrassing things I saw recently was the hugely popular Cameo thread in the Celebrities section on this site. It's not so much that the question was being asked but the obvious lengths people were going to in order to ask it – pretending to be college girls in order to ask "a random question"...... Really?

Many things have changed since the TMF was first established, one of which is that the outside world is no longer oblivious to the fact that tickling fetishists exist. So, if you are someone who thinks you can get away with asking the question and it being seen as some kind of innocent quirk, please be aware that more and more people know exactly what you are doing and are viewing you as a pretty seedy creep.

I still visit the TMF occasionally but don't get as involved in conversation as much as I used to because, while there are many decent folk, there is also endless immaturity and countless objectifying conversations that make me want to look away.

Another thing that has changed since the site was established is that there are drastically fewer women here. I'm in touch with some who I met via this site and similar others. They no longer visit here for precisely the reasons I've mentioned – immaturity, misogyny and creepiness.

If this site and the people on it are a community then we all need to be mindful of what is posted to make it a more welcoming place for women, i.e. somewhere that people portray themselves as though they are in the real world. How many tunnel-visioned, slavering, tongue-lolling cyber circle-jerk fetish obsessives would you want to meet? It's not down to the mods to censor every conversation, so people engaging in the conversations have to maintain a certain level of class (without the almost inevitable incendiary backlash that occurs whenever constructive criticism takes place).

This site is, and has always been, iconic and a sanctuary for many of us who used to think we were the only ones. However, one day someone in the public eye will be "outed" as having a tickling fetish and, if the media/social media want to put that person and anyone else with the fetish in a bad light, they will not have to look far to find ways to do so.

There's no conspiracy to make tickle fetishists look bad. It's tickling fetishists that do it and thousands more seem to applaud it.

Isn't this true about most of the forums here? Are people posting images in the foot and belly forums because they are thinking about the subject as a person? That is absurd.
 
There's a user on here (I don't know if they're still active, but most of us probably know who I'm talking about) that would regularly post their attempt at asking celebrities "the question" on Twitter under the guise of finding out for a relative that died in a war or something.

GRANTED I think that individual had/has some legitimate developmental issues, but it didn't make it any less uncomfortable.

Hell, there's members here now that, even when posting directly to threads on this forum, are awkward and weird about it.
 
Tickle fetish in general just seems home to be some intensely awkward motherfuckers.

Ironically, it's one of the most innocuous fetishes around, and it's easy to incorporate into "vanilla" relationships. The awkward mofos seriously don't realize how easy they've got it.
 
Some folk just. Any just help there self
Not something I would do due to fear of
Being exposed

How ever have seen ebony bridges and Paige being asked on a daily basis and I do enjoy seeing there response

I don't think it's a male/female harassment thing. While it is predominantly males who do this, it has more to do with the impersonal nature of digital communication, people being immature, lacking social skills and growing up with the internet/soc media as an immediate source for every whim or desire they have. It breeds a sense of entitlement and a tendency to view people as objects, there to satisfy their personal needs.

As a guy who makes videos, I get plenty of these kinds of messages too - people often just send pics or videos without any explanation. Random feet pics, pics of themselves, links to models - again, without explanation or with questions about what I would 'do to them'. Demands for free pics/videos, constant requests to be in videos - often from kids who are just 14 or 15 years old. Instagram is the worst because the audience is younger and they sometimes just don't have a clue how to interact with people.

Have you seen this documentary?

I've seen it. It mostly focuses on a /m video producer and his horrible treatment of his male models, rather than a general in depth, comprehensive look into the community.

However, it still served as a exposal piece for vanillas, and it didn't seem to leave a good first impression of course lol. The makers don't seem to think highly of us either.

I always wondered if the fetish has some relation to people who are on the spectrum. It seems like a lot of the ones that do these kind of things lack social awareness and can't pick up cues.

Not to offend people here who are autistic or have aspergers, but it was a curiosity I've had.

Yet both of you don't seem to recognize the split this forum creates in the Era it was even created. TMF was created in what, 2001? Plenty of dudes coming off age probably found this at the height of AOL instant messenger, MySpace, the cropping up of dating sites, etc. A lot of people in general grew up online in the wrong areas with the wrong crowds with the wrong information on the wrong techniques. Doesn't that create a bit of a natural evolution?

Better yet, how many posts do you read from guys "how they got into it" and it was some arbitrary flash in the pan tickling related bullshit and they went "I'm in"?

I really don't see it as too awkward, maybe a bit shy/ passive-aggressive (nature of tickling in general). But our whole culture, the cartoons, videos, this forum, etc is an extremely easy target as a result of it. By virtue of sharing, there's a subtle guilt by association (even if people don't actually feel it) by comparing against the mainstream attitude towards sexuality. XYZ streamer showing "another guy like this" should be indicative that there's social shit going wrong for a disproportionate population of people trying to make it as is.

Truth be told I've seen behavior as bad from younger people who never signed up to TMF and got most of their influence from the height of the Tumblr porn era and "free" YouTube videos. I actually kind of agree with this guys train of thought;

Whether it "attracts more" of these people or the scene is simply so small that they become more apparent, there's something particularly unusual that, as far as I've been made aware, other fetish circles don't have quite as much of an issue with.

With respect Im going to push back. I have asked friends "the question". Ive asked celebs on cameo " the question" . As long as its not done in a creepy way like whats on that screenshot you can still slid it in innocently. When its done that way I see no issue with it. All the celebs I asked where ones I was legit a big fan of and just wondered if they were ticklish. Its not a big deal depending on how its done. If its done like the OP then obviously thats too much

Right.... but still, in 2001, was there YouTube or Tumblr? No, those were minimum 5 years away. If you want to get into how plenty of assholes disregard social norms by sending photos of their cocks to random women and inspire tickling fetish fans to disregard the same norms, I'm sure that's a case. But sure, let's just attribute all the problems of our communities to the autists running rampant on the threads into twitch thot culture.

People have a very low opinion of how to subtly express what they're into to women and in my opinion it's usually because of dumbass Nike "just do it!" Culture meant to inspire people to attain their desired realities.

Agree.
That is because once the TMF was about tickling and the mystery of this thing. Now it's about explicit porn, fetish and jollies.
As a nice playful kid who has matured into a sex obsessive guy.

I'd say there's a significant difference between looking at a picture of a person and appreciating the parts you like best and sending skeevy DMs to strangers, in what's basically the fetishist's equivalent of a dick pic.
