Feet are not as ticklish as I thought

[galem]

I always believed that feet were one of the most ticklish spots, but after watching many women getting tickled, I've noticed that most of them don't really have ticklish feet. Or at least not enough to have a significant response. Does this resonate with you, or I was just unlucky enough to come across women who weren't ticklish on their feet? I apologize for any mistakes, but I live in Italy and English is not my native language.

Your English seems pretty good to me! I've thought and found the same. From what I've noticed, armpits almost always get a more intense response, and some other places sometimes as well. Feet are often somewhat ticklish, but rarely off the charts from what I can tell.

 

[Soles_Scream]

I haven’t found that to be the case. Technique and pressure matters. Having fingernails helps a lot too. My GF is ticklish on her feet for example, but only certain styles will work. Do it light or with a feather and it will put her to sleep.

I have never tickled a woman on her feet who laughed out loud. It drives me crazy. Even the ones that say they have ticklish feet don't laugh. I am starting to believe that women having ticklish feet is a myth. I think if I ever tickle someone who can't stop laughing I will die of excitement. I do tend to enjoy light, slow tickling so what Soles Scream said is very accurate. Although I have tried an electric toothbrush and even a hair brush on lubed up bare feet and still nothing.

I know what you all mean and I have often thought about this. After much time spent pondering about ticklish feet I have arrived at the following conclusion. Lots of ladies do have very ticklish feet but feet may be overrated as a ticklish area.

I have tickled some very ticklish women that were not very ticklish on their feet. That being said, I’ve also tickled ticklish gals that have very ticklish feet. Guess what I am trying to say is that most ticklish ladies have ticklish feet but not all.

I have found that underarms overall are more ticklish than feet but there are plenty of women out there that will laugh when you tickle them on the bottoms of their feet.

Your English is very understandable...perhaps more understandable than some native speakers I know lol. No, my experience has been that some are and some aren't. I've tickled several that are like tickling a rock and I've tickled several where you'd think I was killing them if it weren't for the laughter between the screams.

I swear I've seen women laughing while having their feet tickled, and they were not fakers 😁 But anyway, I think that feet in general are a bit overrated in terms of ticklishness. Particularly the laughing response. My feet for example are kind of ticklish. I might flinch a bit but I don't laugh. It's just annoying, but after a while I get used to it and it doesn't bother me anymore.

tbh i have loads of experience with feet being excessively ticklish but the most ticklish spots are normally on the abdomen

 

[South_Atmo]

It's a wide range of possibilities and combinations. Odds are you got unlucky. I've run across all levels of foot ticklishness before I even considered producing content. Odds are you just got a bit unlucky.

Watch any clip from Testing4Laughs and you will change your mind! He has really mastered how to tickle a girl’s feet.

I’d echo what @Soles_Scream says, technique matters a lot! I think a lot of people just don’t know how to effectively tickle feet. It’s much easier for beginners to tickle sides and armpits.

 

[mistee]

My feet are ticklish, but if someone tickles them “too hard” then I’m less likely to laugh.

 

[Morning Scifi]

In my personal experience, the 2 areas that have been the most ticklish among the girlfriends I've had have been feet and underarms. There were a few who weren't that ticklish in those spots, but more often than not, those areas got the best responses.

As someone with a mutually exclusive foot fetish, I enjoy upper body (or knees up) tickling a lot more for a few reasons:

- Unrestrained feet are HARD to tickle. Ankles are strong, fast-tworch muscles and if the feet are very ticklish, it's more like high level whack-a-mole. As soon as touched, they flinch and flee away and it becomes more chasing than anything. You have to have a really REALLY vice grip that holds the ankle form like a ski boot to keep a sole still. And unbound that means the Lee has 3 limbs free and if they aren't an actual ticklephile, they're kicking you on the back.
Stocks alone won't keep them still but toeties are as good as it gets and that can be numbing.
If the ticklee loves having their feet tickled they might be more apt to try as hard as possible to keep their feet "tickle-able", but ...
I actually prefer tickling the tops of the feet more than the soles when I do, but it isn't any easier to do that to a thrashing foot in fight/flight mode. I know many LOVE the thrill of being overpowered and unbound (and I'm all for that)... But I'm not built like a pro wrestler to be fighting to get you so I enjoy it more spending time tickling than struggling. Personal take, it's all love, I digress.

• In my experiences, feet "tend" to get accustomed to tickling and unless it's hard gargalesis on nerves or it's just that spot for them, they can either get numb to it OR the sensation becomes less ticklish and more of an aggravating torment. Reactions might be similar. Knismesis or erotic tickling on the feet can be a different story. Other places you can go to town on nonstop but to keep the average feet fresh means pacing and stop and start (which isn't necessarily a bad thing, just all about what you like).
• Other than sandals, the feet/toes have to be socked, nylons/hose, or bare to get them. But you can tickle people's ribs, sides, knees, tummies, butt, thighs even if they have on ski wear if they're ticklish and you're good. One of my favorite tickle experiences ever, the girl had on a puffy winter coat but my hands got up underneath to her ribs and she was wrecked for 2 minutes (she loved it though). Leading to...
• Closeness. Again someone with a foot fetish speaking here. To ME it can feel like being 'distant'. Fun when the Lee is hyper ticklish but when tickling the legs or upperbody, I just feel like it's a closer and more involved (to avoid saying "intimate" experience. Like the last example tickling the girl's ribs under her coat. I could "feel" her diaphragm quaking in silent laughter and "feel" her body giving in (no, it was not humping or rubbing, just innocent clean hysterical tickling). If I verbally tease, I know it's going right on the ears driving them nuts. Every twitch of their reaction is felt. And I don't get nearly the same thing from tickling feet.

Just a perspective, that's all.

I've run into ladies who just aren't very ticklish on their feet but never one who wasn't incredibly ticklish under the arms or on the ribs (if they were they just were not really ticklish anywhere).

 

[Toermentor]

My personal experience is vastly different as I married a feather ticklish woman.
I think there is a couple of reasons for feet not being ticklish enough for it to be fun and I'll say that there are way more not very ticklish women than there are truly ticklish ones. Once you find a woman that has really ticklish feet you will have much better time with feet. On top of that you can make the whole experience a lot more sensitive for her with tight inescapable bondage, temp play, headspace etc... but that is a whole different topic.
I would like to point out that unfortunately the tide of the tickling content has turned in the last 10+ years where, ticklish amateur girls were replaced by profesional talent, and you can see that most of them are not ticklish (or barely with few exceptions).
Thats why I always find myself going back to Tickle Paradise videos... but maybe that's just me and my old soul.
Anyway... it's not that feet are not a ticklish spot... it's just it's hard to find a pair that are. Still wort looking 😀

 

[laffmaker1234]

There are women with very ticklish feet for sure. But many only mildly ticklish there or the are ticklish at first and then they get used to it. Then again, that's what makes it a great challenge because you can never really be sure until you try (or see someone else try) 🙂

 

[ihatethisyo]

I think feet just desensitize very quickly compared to other body parts. Even if someone has incredibly ticklish feet, you can’t just repetitively tickle in the same spot with the same predictable motion.

The most skilled foot ticklers understand this and they use different strategies to prolong the sensitivity and the element of surprise. Again I would like to take the opportunity to plug Testing4Laughs (T4L), as he’s one of the most skilled foot ticklers I have ever seen.

Some tips that I’ve found work to extend foot sensitivity are

1. Start tickling with socks on before tickling them bare.
2. Start with one foot and when that foot starts desensitizing switch to the other foot (very effective)
3. Start dry but eventually start adding lotion.
4. Start very soft and slow with fingers. Switch to a hard brush at the end.
5. Never stay in one spot. Keep switching from toes, heels, soles, ball of the foot, tops etc.

I think it really depends. Ticklishness, I've found out, very often depends on the mood of the lee (myself included, although I'm M/mostly ler). If the lee is relaxed, feeling goofy, or generally in a good mood, the ticklishness increases. And again, if they're nervous, irritated for some reason, too tired, it gets annoying for them. After all, let's take into consideration the fact that tickling and ticklishness are also a psychological thing, not just a physical sensation. Also, the mind and body get used to the sensation after a certain amount of time, and the ticklishness decreases.

Having said that, being 36, I've had my fair share of partners throughout the years. Only two of them were what you'd call super ticklish and react with laughter and squirming to the tickling regardless of external factors. One of them was really a tickler's dream - amazing feet, very ticklish all over, and she didn't hate it at all. A perfect sub in bed, but apart from the sexual stuff, she was a total bitch. Anyway, not the point... All other partners I've had have had mixed reactions to tickling. One of them would laugh like a maniac for 5-6 minutes, then just stop, because she was getting used to it and could control it. I've had girlfriends who were extremely ticklish on the armpits and ribs, but had 0 sensitivity to foot tickling.

Last but not least, I think we could all agree that real-life sex is rarely the same as it is shown in porn movies. Same goes with tickling and tickling videos. Yep, it's cool to watch a beautiful gal laughing non-stop for 45 minutes while foot tickled, but isn't at least part of it acting? I'm sure it is.

There is definetely no rule for this. I have many times been disappointed by the ticklishness of the feet of girls that I would love to tickle and they were into doing it, but at the same time, I have meet some girls with extremely ticklish feet far more ticklish than the rest of their body.

They're overrated when it comes to intense tickling, but it's crazy to say that women aren't ticklish on their feet as a general statement. I've commissioned over 100+ foot tickling clips on OF and similar sites and most women have ranged from decently to very ticklish with some being explosively ticklish and only a couple being not ticklish at all. Most of these people are amateur, vanilla models who knew little if all of the fetish. That's not even counting the people I just asked without getting a clip, majority of women have said their feet are ticklish. Everyone's mileage will vary, I don't need a woman to buck and explode when her feet are tickled(of course that would be GREAT! lol), just squirming and giggling is enough for me and that seems to be the average reaction when a ticklish woman is tickled on her feet.


Some things to note, although I'm echoing things some posters have already said:

- Like others have said, there's a lot of factors to take into consideration. Technique, mood of the ticklee, the situation, the relationship between the tickler and ticklee.etc
A lot of people lose some sensitivity when they know it's coming. The brain is prepping, the body gets anxious and tenses up which can stymie reactions. The best reactions are almost always during casual, everyday life situations where you just walk by somebodys feet and start tickling. They aren't expecting it so the body doesn't have time to prepare.

-You can always use things like baby oil, pet grooming gloves, pumice stones and a headless electric toothbrush, electric flossers to get a better reaction. Headless Electric toothbrush, in particular, is a menace to feet(especially in between the toes) because it's an odd sensation that most haven't felt before and it takes a bit before the brain can wrap around it and start diminishing the sensation.

-Most areas will get desensitized the longer you tickle them, that goes for armpits, ribs as well, not just feet. Gotta move around and keep the body guessing. Maybe blindfold the ticklee so they have no idea where you will strike next.

I think there are those woman around 10-20% whom have crazy ticklish feet..But in many cases these woman are afraid to participate in tickling videos or even going to pedicure..
But sometimes we can see them.
For example this woman in the picture has crazy ticklish feet haha
