Origins of the tickle fetish: A way for foot lovers to legally touch feet

Just a guess here but when a foot lover is a young boy, there are few ways to touch the objects of desire without bringing attention to the fact that he (almost exclusively) has this fetish.

Boys might "accidentally" touch a woman's foot with theirs under the table at a dinner or playing games. Some may turn to shoes because he can't actually feel the female foot with his hands themselves, or as a teenager with his erection.

Tickling games are perfect though. It is just in fun to reach over and tickle a woman or girl's feet, or pull their socks off as a laugh and then place your hands on their lovely soft feet.

Could it be that this youthful desire to touch women's feet becomes a sub-fetish for the foot lover. Seems to be a lot of foot guys on here and it would be interesting to read their tickling origins as well.

I never talked to a professional, but a girl once told me my obsession with f/m tickling comes from a motherless and abusive childhood, combined with the fact that the only time I was happy was when I was being tickled, and I think this makes sense. But whatever the origins, I don't really care because if it gives me a lot of pleasure then that's all that matters. I have the foot thing too, so they go together, which makes sense with what you just said here.
 
Yeah, I really don't dwell on the origins of how I became this way. All I know is what I like and what makes me happy. That's good enough for me 🙂

Freud and every knock off since him has deduced everything is stemmed in "you want to fuck your mother", I wouldn't really put a ton of faith in that.
 
I really think it may be individual in nature. If people can't agree it is one thing then it is not. Mine likely started by wanting to get to some girl's feet innocently.

But I never wanted to fuck my mother. She wasn't a good person anyway. What the hell does fuckin Frood know? I think he's just ignergrint.
 
I think because I'm not entirely comfortable with my kink I'm intensely curious about the origination of fetishes. Maybe I'm looking for some kind of scientific validation or vindication. From what reading I've done Freud's work is all but overwritten by subsequent research. So much so that you wonder why people still reference him. He's certainly important as a founder of modern psychoanalysis but I think these days it's just because people know his name.

The presence or otherwise of a parent is unquestionably a force on who we become but I think the whole "every boy wants to fuck his mother" thing or "foot fetish represents the vagina" is garbage. At this point I'm questioning my kink as a chicken or egg situation. Did my fetish develop because of my behavior or did the behavior come from the fetish? My current tendency is to think that, for me, it's the way I'm wired and consequent behavior shaped the fetish. I've had a foot and tickle fetish as far back as I can remember so if there was a trigger moment for me it's when I was a toddler and is gone to the mists of time. I can remember as a small child playing with the feet of any woman who would let me -- daycare, babysitters, my mother, whoever. I don't recall this behavior lasting longer than maybe 4 years old.

As I got older it continued to be playful in nature -- I would tickle girls if the opportunity presented itself but would not actively seek this out. I would also, and here's where I think the OP's question comes into play for me, try to get certain girls I liked to tickle me -- usually without any luck. Then once I started into teen years it developed from being a playful, but still somehow compulsive, behavior to having the sexual edge that it has for me. I was terrifically self-conscious and shy as a teenager so my kink made me feel even more alienated. As an adult I've probably taken this behavior to an extreme and haven't acted on any of these desires until I was in a position where I felt it was safe -- which means of course it hasn't happened much, lol.

Well...this has been a, um, revealing post and I don't know if I actually answered the question, lol. But, in for a penny in for a pound.

I was a lot like that as a kid too. Even as an adult I was very hesitant with what I like. A few years ago, I said screw it! You only live once, my friend. Been having a blast ever since. It started as an excuse to touch feet, not it's a reason to touch feet.

I think that's where I am now -- hopefully the best is yet to come!
 
It would be cool to know some of your journeys since. I like your attitude. We've had to hide in the shadows too long while all sorts of other more wild kinks are so called normalized.
