You make some good points!To me, gags can add an intense layer in the tickle session, limited protests, giggles, anticipation builds with every stroke on my body, making me feel completely surrendered, but everything truly depends, I can be loud, so there're sessions where I've pretty much just screamed on top of my lungs, we (my bf & I) have also experimented with taking it off, putting it on during the session for some durations. Bottom line I find gags to be a powerful tool (along with oils, blindfolds, etc) which can elevate your sessions.
I'm with you!I love both, but if I had to choose, I'd go with no gag. In a session, it's more the lee's choice since I can enjoy both, but I want them to enjoy it too.
Makes sense to meIf I'm watching a video, no gags. I just can't get into it. Even if it's good, I just think of how much more I'd enjoy it if I could hear their laugh. I want to soak in every sound.
Real life, I can be open to it. If that's what the lee wants to go with and it makes it a better session for them, sure.
