your input wanted....pleeeeeease?

Another thread recently resurfaced the issue of sexual vs non-sexual tickling. It's an issue that has always been there for me personally, my own interest being primarily non-sexual in a community where the majority see it mainly as sexual. What do people do when they want only good clean fun from sites but don't know who offers what? I was thinnking about this while doing yardwork today.

I'd mentioned in the other thread that I thought I might try to include designations for sites in our links section in order to help people find the kind of stuff they're really looking for. I think I'd likely have to have levels with specific designations in order to cover the various limits folks place on their interest. Maybe something like....

1. All clothed with no sexual contact/overtones.
2. Clothed but with sexual overtones.
3. Some nudity but no overt sexual contact.
4. Some nudity and other fetish themes included.
5. Nudity and sexual contact included.

Any thoughts? I'm already planning to go back through and update who offers what AFA stories, images, clips, etc. So, it wouldn't be a biggie to grab this information as I go back through. Is this something people would like to see? Are there other things you'd like to know before clicking on that link? If we have enough interest, I can include other categories as well. We aim to serve. So, please share your thoughts on this so we know what you're looking for.

Wow Ann, you've put alot of thought in to a good idea. 🙂
It's funny with me, sometimes tickling can be non-sexual with me but I mostly enjoy non-nude tickling photos and vids.
Really the sexual part comes from tickling a girlfriend or a date for me.
Though a nude girl screaming her head off from tickling is damn hot.

For those that are straight non-nude or all nude, indicating that for the link would really help those searching for whatever preference they have. For a long time I would put my photos and clips collected through the years in folders stating nude, not nude or partial. Depending on my mood, I knew what to find. But I've become lazy the last few years so it's a mess again. lol

I don't know if I was any help but I support what you're thinking!

Ann, part of my post here includes a quote from the original thread, since I gather you didn't want to answer my questions there.

For me, it's not a fetish anyway....just something I love.

That sounds like it's essentially recreational - like tennis or ballroom dancing. Is that what you mean?

1. All clothed with no sexual contact.
2. Clothed but with sexual overtones.

Since we're still not clear on what's sexual, I'm not sure what sexual overtones would look like.

3. Some nudity but no overt genital contact.
4. Some nudity and other fetish themes included.
5. Nudity and sexual contact included.

Except for that quibble these look fine.

I love tickling. In certain contexts it can be both.

If I can have a chance to tickle a beautiful woman, I will. I enjoy the reaction. Love hearing a woman giggle. My favorite is babbling incoherently, lol. No sexual contact, in public sort where it can be fun.

I want a girl who I am with to be ticklish. I love bondage and I also add tickling in with sex. This is with a willing sex partner and as I am looking for a girl who is submissive and ticklish, well, That is my enjoyment and what makes it a fetish for me.

Yeah. I didn't want that to get further off topic on them. Thanks for reposting things here.

I don't know if I'd compare it to tennis or dancing. I'd thought of saying that it wasn't like them because I'm very passionate about it. One can be passionate about other things as well, though. But, yes. It is mainly a recreational thing. Does it ever cross over into a sexual interest? Sure it does...but only when it's with Drew. With everyone else, it's purely playful and fun. In fact, if it weren't for the fact that I've made so many friends in the community, I probably wouldn't bother with sites at all. I prefer real life discussion and play. Though I DO enjoy some of the goodies that are shared.

Perhaps it would help to define sexual for this purpose as being genital, ass and (female) breast contact? I think for most folks that would be the areas that would tend to cross the line. If it's not the case for everyone, at least it would be defined and they'd know what to expect. For those with fetishes related to specific body parts, those areas would as well. But, we'll stick with the basics here.

Cool. Thanks for the feedback.

It's actually more observing what people are looking for in the more serious threads. This has come up several times and is something I would want to know for myself as well. I used to keep track of that. But, since the number of sites has exploded in the last few years, I got further and further behind on checking things. So, I figured I should include it with the rest of the info.

LOL Yep. Same here. I need to go through all my stuff and pull the info. so I know what I have. The last couple of years have been so nuts with life in general that I don't even remember half of what I've checked out. Once my yard work is caught up to start the season (hopefully by the end of next week), I'm going to start going back through everything. It's lonnnnng overdue!

So, any other things people would like to see designated in site descriptions? With well over 700 sites now in our listing, I really don't want to have to go through things twice! lol 😉

Ann

Maybe certain images upset others more than they do me . . .

But seeing a picture of movie that does not suit my taste is not the end of the world. If only it were my worst problem.

All this from gardening?
What were you planting?
What was your crop and how much of it did ya smoke..lol! 😛

Seriously........all of above will be great covering it all is great.
Different strokes(pun intended) for different folks and a mix at some gatherings may be desired depending on those involved.

LOL Gardening can be very good for clearing my mind and concentrating on things. Actually, I wasn't planting anything yet, though. I just got the veggie garden area ready for planting and did a couple other things. As for smoking...That's why I was able to function enough to do it. 😉 (For those who may be wondering, I use a combination of herbs to relieve back spasms, etc. Smoking the mix seems to be most effective for me.) Today, I even took the sledge hammer to some of the shelves in the shed. So, you KNOW the stuff was working.

Hmmm...I'll take that as agreeing that including the site info. is good? I guess the topic needed further discussion since you're the second to take the conversaion outside of it's relation to sites. But, that's cool. It just gives me more info. on what folks are looking for.

Ann

Hmmmmmm.........well ther are alot of gatherings and such maybe, like with movies you could put a rating!


Say you want a rated "G" gathering or "PG","R", "X" etc. Why couldn't you say something like that in your invites? Or do I misunderstand what your asking, Ann?!

Actually, I was looking to find out what info. people want on site link descriptions. It just got a bit off topic. Doing ratings for gatherings is an idea, but more left to the host for the specific gathering since some do a variety of things at different times.

Ann

I like the idea a lot Ann~I know how hard you work on that site and it's much appreciated!

XOXO

Ooops! Missed the response...

Thanks Steph. I always have to remind myself how thrilled I was to find those first few sites when I started out. There's sooo much out there now that you can't just remember who has what any more. So, I want to have things outlined a bit more and let people know what's where. It'll take a while to get it all up-to-date on that, esp. with all the outdoor projects now in the works. But, it'll get there. I guess the only drawback to having so much info. is that updating it is no longer a matter of sitting down for an hour or so. Now, it's more like a month or so. lol

Why didn't I think of this in Nov. so I could work on it all winter??? 😉
