Anyone like this?

I don't have alot of time to come into the TMF and when I do I very seldom post.There is always someone around and our computer is integated into a recording studio.I do like to read what others have to say or think about tickling.The times I do post or read, it's like breaking away and playing.The posts I have done in the last few weeks hAVE been on socks and tickling and a dvd I had done by T2D which I still say is to cool.Now, I don't know if this has ever been ask but now I have the time to pose this question to the good people that come here.
Ever since I was young I liked tickling and I pretty much know that I got this kink from my father who tickled my mother senseless all the time.The socks come from my mother who alway wore them, so you put it all together and wa la you can see how this all could come about.Still to this day I some times have trouble dealing with this kink and or fetish. I have spent A bunch of money on therapy through the years and been told differant things.The one thing that all have agreed with is tickling is a form of torture and is sadistic and cruel.My wife says it's cruel,so I don't tickle her very much.I do find other ways to satisfy my needs. Has anyone else ever been to a therapist? Do you know where your tickling kink or fetish come from? Would you like to see a therapist?Do you think tickling is a form of S and M ? Do you feel guilty because you like tickling? Do you think tickling is normal behavior? Does it interfere with normal sexual behavior? This is some questions I hope you might want to try to answer. One could say from one tickler to another.
Thanks The_Musician
 
Sadism: The derivation of sexual pleasure from the infliction of physical or mental pain and distress upon others.

Tickling as a physical action can easily fit into the definition. One inflicts it upon another, and it does cause a from of distress, and mental pain. Physical also if you have a wide definition.

So yah. It's a Sadistic action by most definitions. And no, I've never felt bad about doing it.

Myriads
 
I don't think that a fetish is something like a disease which needs to be cured. Only when the fetish dominates your life, keeps you from working or from enjoying other parts of life, if it ruins your family or finances, or if it is harmful to others, then you need a therapy. Because then, it's some kind of addiction.

Otherwise, it's nothing more than an alternative lifestyle. Enjoy it! 😎
 
Has anyone else ever been to a therapist?

I've never been to a therapist before, but I used to toy with the idea of going to one just to see what traditional psychiatry/psychology would come up with as a reason for this fascination.

Do you know where your tickling kink or fetish come from?

I haven't the foggiest, but I'd say for me one of what could be many origins is that it's a manifestation of a desire/need/craving for touch, affection, on some levels acceptance and ultimately love.

Would you like to see a therapist?

Well, if all of them immediately jump to the S&M/Torture thing, probably not... That's something I've already heard before.

Do you think tickling is a form of S and M ?

I think tickling is defined by your relation to it, and only you know what that is. For me, they are completely separate.

Do you feel guilty because you like tickling?

Absolutely not! Be like feeling guilty for having perfect pitch or being able to run a 4.3 40 yard sprint.

Do you think tickling is normal behavior?

Tickling is a natural dynamic shared with the most precious commodity of most cultures on earth: babies. I don't think it gets much more normal than that.

Does it interfere with normal sexual behavior?

Not at all. In essence, the two are separate for me, but they do integrate at times.
 
Hal just proves time and time again to be a man of tremendous wisdom...
Stop with the therapy. Stop feeling guilty. Stop letting others guilt trip you. Find a way to love yourself and WHAT YOU ARE. If your wife finds this behavior cruel (and it can easily be very much so), talk to her about possibly finding for yourself a purely platonic friend here on this board who LOVES being tickled, and will gladly go along with non-con fantasies. You never know, if you're honest and forthright about it, she just might think it's a good idea.

Your a good guy, Musician. Please, cut out these negative things like therapy and guilt from your life. Enjoy life!
 
I went to a psychotherapist a long time ago (might have been 20 years ago!) and he told me that I was one of the sanest people he had ever met. I am extremely open and honest (more a necessity than a virtue. I stink at lying.) and manage to keep my priorities in something resembling a sensible order. can’t go wrong with being a loving person who loves who they are.

don’t get me wrong tho. even with my signed and stamped sanity, I went through a time where I felt bad about who I was because the person I was closest to told me I should. if you are told something often enough, you believe it.

but anyhow, having been to psychotherapist AND having lived a life that didn’t fit... I’ll just say, what Hal said! 🙂
 
Wasn't it Freud,who said,"I'm OK.your OK,hell were all Ok.Tickling to me is just fun.I have tickled alot of people,but I have never tickled anyone who didn't like it.I never tied up and tickled anyone who wasn't willing.I admit I can be a bit intense🙂but,not to the point of hurting anyone.So,I am just going to go about tickling all those willing ticklee's,Illinois anyone( hell that never works)So,what I say is don't analyze just tickle.:happyfloa :happyfloa :happyfloa
 
I have enough reasons to be tossed in the booby hatch, I'll be damned if liking tickling is one of them

Sadistic? I suppose it certainly CAN be. I think most ticklers have a small streak of sadism in them. Maybe subconciously <sp>. And while I'm sure that 99.999% of the comunity would never perform long term, truly non consentsual tickling on another, is it still being sadistic if it's what the lee really wants and enjoys? I, for one, have never condidered tickling painful. It can be unpleasant if done by someone I don't like, but when done playfully or sensualy, I wouldn't give it up for anything! And I don't feel guilty when I do it, either. Paige enjoys it so much, I'd feel guiltier if I didn't do it!:tickle:
 
Yes, I once confessed my kink to a therapist (a woman, actually -- which didn't make it easier).

She said it was one of the cleanest, most innocent predilections she had ever heard described. She also thought it was very cute that I was worried about it.

So no, not every therapist is an idiot trying to cram you into a dysfunction box.
 
Can tickling someone be sadistic and cruel? Sure....it depends on the mindset and conscience of the person doing the tickling. If someone is sadistic and doesn't care about their lover/ wife/ girlfriend and tickles them unmercifully against their will...or abuses them by going beyond their limits/ wishes....tickling can definitely be used to torture someone.

HOWEVER, tickling can also be a playful healthy interaction between two people who deeply love, trust, and respect each other. My mom and dad had regular "playful" ticklefights when I was a kid, and they both enjoyed it...they were like high school kids or newlyweds even after 15 years of marriage. I don't know any couple who love each other as much as mom and dad loved one another...why her death in 1977 nearly killed dad, and why he's never been the same man since 🙁

As for your questions...

Has anyone else ever been to a therapist? Nope...never in my life.

Do you know where your tickling kink or fetish come from? IMO from watching dad and mom's ticklefights as a kid.

Would you like to see a therapist? Not because I enjoy playfully tickle teasing my girlfriend and letting her tickle me in the same manner.

Do you think tickling is a form of S and M? Not neccesarily....I've never thought of myself in that manner.

Do you feel guilty because you like tickling? When I was a teenager I felt both confused, and some guilt; but not since reaching adulthood.

Do you think tickling is normal behavior? Sure....playful tickling is human nature

Does it interfere with normal sexual behavior? Nope...not thus far
 
i didn't bother reading the replies so if this has been said im sorry..


your into tickling, you wont get over it, some man/women who thinks there lives are perfect telling you you dont like it wont get you over it... your into it.. you tickle people. its how you tickle them that makes it seem like sadism or fun..




wow that took like 3 mins to type with all those periods. lol
 
Beautifully stated Perry (as always!) One of my majors (I tripled) was Abnormal Psych and from it I've learned one thing: WE THINK TOO MUCH! Please, folks, relax and ENJOY...

XOXO

relax!!

Would ye all calm down and stop raving about the facts of tickling. Tickling is cute and can be enjoyed by people, it creates a bond between a man and woman. Tickling isnt cruel, its how you treat it e.g. tying up young girls and tickling them while the onlt reason your doing it is so you can see them naked and during an orgasm (silvercherry), that is wrong and cruel. But just normal tickling is innocent!! Relax people.........
 
Right on, anna and steph! (Right on????? WHO'S old???) Yes. IMO we DO thend to think and worry too much about some fun. playful tickling. There are so many other things to worry about, tickling should be a time away from worry.

How'd I get into tickling? Media bombardment (O.K. one commercial when I was four), and family tickle fights

Would I see a therapist? Not for my love of tickling, at least!

Do I consider it a form of S/M? No.

Do I feel guilty when I do it? Heck, no.

Do I think it's normal behavior? Define "Normal", and yes, I do.

Does it interfere with normal sexual behavoir? As soon as I'm having some sexual behavior, I'll let you know!

R-E-L-A-X and enjoy! 🙂
 
I guess too much reflection and too little action are one of the most stressful combinations in life... Unless you are an evolutionary psychologist or a sociologist you shouldn't be supposed to think too much of tickling, but just enjoy it... Heck, I am a sedimentary geologist, but when hiking on a mountain I can simply enjoy the landscape and the company without pausing every other minute to analyze the tiniest chip of rock along the path... It's good to think, but I sense thinking too much somewhere there! 🙂
Has anyone else ever been to a therapist?
Nope, they'd tell me it's no good to spend ten hours a day studying weird stuff about sand and mud! 😛

Do you know where your tickling kink or fetish come from?
Well, not really... As many others noticed in the thread, I come from a particularly tickle-prone family, parents, uncles, cousins and all, so I guess that's where it first entered my life, although I definitely couldn't say it had any even tenuous sexual connotations back then, whereas now I definitely find tickling a sexy, cuddly (and potentially very naughty!! 😀 ) thing... Yet I don't care where it comes from, I just enjoy it...

Would you like to see a therapist?
Yes I'd love to, especially if she were a lady and she suddenly jumped up and told me she's into tickling lots too, and the rest is a romantic story tenderly unfolding into my wicked fantasy!! 😉

Do you think tickling is a form of S and M ?
Hmm, depends... Can be, in theory... But if do it with someone else you love and who loves it, then it's enjoyable SM, so not even worth the doubt about it?? 😱

Do you feel guilty because you like tickling?
I actually feel lucky.... :devil:

Do you think tickling is normal behavior?
A definition of normal is needed here... Anyone have a suggestion? Until suggestion is given, yep, it's very normal TO ME!

Does it interfere with normal sexual behavior?
See above...

Ohhh, it's going to be a nice day in The Netherlands today! 🙂

gotta say...

“just relax” is easy to say when you are relaxed. not so easy to do when you have self-doubt reinforced on a daily basis. the message still holds true... like who you are and to heck with what ‘they’ think. but knowing it and feeling it are unfortunately two different things.

I guess I just hope that no one feels badly for not being there yet. but also hope that they go away knowing that other people who felt the same way they do... did get there. and they can too.

that’s all from the over-thinker-worry-wort sect. 🙂

THIS explains why you are soo outgoing NOW!!!
You were to busy in the books during college LOL 😉


I will jump in here...
I used to think I was the only one who got really excited thinking about or tickling a girl/woman...
However, I remember I was oh 16 or 17 and happened to let my eyes run along the "TOP" section of the magazine rack and saw a mag called "Leg Show" and thought well geez at least there is a Mag that focuses on something I like besides boobs and ass...
Then when I got my hands on one, and it had a story about tickling I nearly died...and then had to shave my palms! 😉

I realized at least that I wasn't alone...maybe unique but not alone!
Made things a bit easier for me to at least tickle someone and not worry too much about getting "excited".

I had a "Fuck" friend in college, she loved the "Reaction" I got from me tickling her and let me tickle her during sex...great times...she loved to tease me with it...other than tickling and screwing we had nothing in common...
GOD DO I MISS COLLEGE!!!
 
funny Tommy!

😀

Believe or not I was WORSE, because of all the stress. (I was also a live in caretaker for an elderly lady and had a real job on the side--part time grocery clerk.) It didn't leave much time for sleep, I'm afraid but I still managed to make time for FUN 😉

XOXO
 
But I think Ayla has a good point...It's very easy for us "laid back" types to sit in judgement of those who are worriers by nature, no?

To tell a thinker to relax is sort of like telling a man "Ok--I'VE decided you need to be a woman now..."😀

XOXO
