finding out if others are ticklish

[tummytickler100]

Do any of you do anything special to see if the person is especially ticklish or if they ar especially into tickling?

One of the things that I like to do is play truth or dare, it sounds kinda stupid but I found out my current girlfriend has a super ticklish tummy because I dared her to let me tickle it for 10 minutes, and she accepted(she only lasted for like two though🙂).

I always try to slip it subtly into conversation. Sometimes I have to confess my own vulnerability first to make them more comfy. When I spoke with one friend for example, we got onto the subject of bondage. She had jokingly told her boyfriend to cuff her to the bed. I responded by saying "oh...I would do that myself too, but I'd be afraid they tickled me". That got her to not only confess her own ticklishness in a lighthearted and completely casual manner, but also to tell stories about tickle torturing her boyfriend. It was great for me, and she never knew I had any reason for wanting to know other than for the sake of conversation.

whenever I talk to a girl to find out if she is ticklish I usually set it up like so:

I make it a goal to ask if she is athletic or a tough girl..most girls, in a cute way, say "yeah"...so then i say, "nah, i can still beat you up." then the girl will always say, "no you cant."

then i say that i can because all girls have the same weakness..

then they ask what is the weakness

Then i say, "all girls are ticklish."

And then the girl usually says its true..or hey, "no fair."

Ive gotten some great reactions outta those girls.

Scientific Approach

The Scientific Approach always works. My method is finger probing. Somebody told me once Talk is Cheap. Just do it.

More then one way

There is nothing that says you have to do it only one way. Both ISUmark's and SPOOK's techniques seem like they could work and would be lots of fun.

finding out if someone i ticklish is always exciting. sometimes when i want to find out, when i shake their hand (not with people i meet the first time, but people that i talked to a few times), i would try to tickle their hand. if she laughs, then i would simply ask "ticklish?" usually their response is good, so i would try to continue the topic by asking "how ticklish are you?" again, usually good responses. even if they tell me they are not ticklish, i act surprised and say things like "you're not ticklish? anywhere? not even your feet?" usually i get good responses. i do this with people i built some sort of comfort level with, so when i am asking this, they think i am being my usual playful self. but what a rush when you find out how ticklish they are!!!!

fun stuff....

I love the first time I tickle someone, or they tickle me. It usually happens as retaliation for a wisecrack that the guy or I make towards one another. I am a very physical person, so rough housing and play of this sort almost always just naturally comes up in my relationships (be them platonic or intimate). I'm all for the poke and see method of tickling! 🙂 Although, I must say that I loved ISUmark's approach too!
When I tickle a guy for the first time they almost always try to grab my hands before I can get them to laugh (it's like a macho protection reflex or something..lol). I'll say something like "What's the matter, ticklish?" I love the guys that try to deny it (I guess because they see it as some kind of weakness or something), and then it becomes a game of trying to find one ticklish spot after another so I can prove them wrong. Of course, on the flip side of that, I will also deny being ticklish when a guy finds a ticklish spot for the first time just because it usually instigates them to prove me wrong too!

Thanks guys(or girls), input from all the other members would be appreciated, you all have to have some way of doin this.

I like to work the word "tickle" or "ticklish" into everyday conversation (can't do it that often though) by describing a "ticklish situation" or saying "tickled pink" or something like that and just seeing if her eyes bug out a little, or if there is a little smile or even better, a huge blush.

 

[BigJim]

My personal method is to be provocative. I'm great at inducing female sassiness and have mastered the art of getting a girl to insult me. ( Cool eh? ) Once they've gone to far I say "Now you've done it!" and go in for the kill. It's a great way to set up a playful situation.

I've only ever made another method work and that was because I was drunk, so I'll save it for another day. 😀

I've loved tickling all my life, and been 'out of the closet' about it for about two years or so and hearing someone use the word 'tickle' (or any variation of it) STILL gets me to blush! And FORGET about making any eye contact...lol. I guess that's a dead giveaway right there, huh? It's like I'm afraid that the other person will read my mind or something. I know, I'm just being paranoid!

I use the word tickling so much in my everyday conversation, that some of my friends are getting a little antsy with me for using it so frequently.

I guess we all fantasize that a member of the opposite sex (or same sex, not that there's anything wrong with that--> see Fav. Seinfeld saying) will exclaim, "Oh yes, I love tickling!! Please tie me up and tickle my toes, even if I beg for mercy!!"

If only, eh?

 

[Sunriseticklee]

I'm sort of on the opposite end of BigJim's spectrum. When flirting, I have perfected the art of getting a guy to tickle me. Just one of those things. And I have been doing that well... pretty much near birth.

After they tickle me... well you know! And its only fair. Heehee

Remember Maggie, just because you're parnoid doesn't mean they're not after you.

[mrfrench58]

Well, this may sound crazy, but it has worked in the past for me.

Several times, when I wanted to find out about a lady's ticklishness, I steered our conversation toward TV commercials we found annoying. I would always mention the Pillsbury Poppin' Fresh Doughboy and how he always giggled when he was poked in the belly. Natually, I would have to remind my prey how the commercial went. She would jump and laugh and I would have the information I craved. Then, the fun began!😛

LOL...hey! You live WAY too close to be making jokes like that. Now
I'm REALLY going to be paranoid!

No need to be paranoid (NYCity hides feather behind his back) Us NYers are friendly people! We would NEVER.....(NYCity assembles fork, q-tips, and other instruments carefully designed to make DaisyCrazy)....EVER do anything sinister like that.

Would we?

 

[qjakal]

Most friendly...

place around...especially if you're a Tk'lee. I LOVE NY and all that...they couldn't print it if it wasn't true, could they? 😉 Q

 

[Eternal Tomboy]

Well, I would 😀 ....and that leads me to believe that other MUCH MORE sinister NYers would too! You can put that tin-foil halo of yours away NYCity....you're talkin' to a fellow Nyer....I KNOW what goes on in that little mind of yours

You do????? Will you let me in on it??? I've been trying to figure it out for years.

Maggie, I live all the way across the country from you, and I just want to say that you're adorable!

Hello boys...

Sorry it took me so long to get back to you all, but I just got back from a wedding that I had to go to out of state. I'm SO glad to be back home!

NYCity - I'd be glad to take a long hard look into your psyche NY....but it'll cost you 100 bucks an hour (lol) 😉

BigJim - It would cost you 200 bucks...you would take a WHOLE LOT more time to figure out, and it would cost me WAY more money to get to you

TklJoe - THANKS! 😀

Half as much as BigJim? Is that DaisyCrazy's way of calling me a half-wit? What a bargain!

LOL...you could look at it that way, or you could say that Jim is TWICE as crazy as you are. Personally I think you're BOTH pretty goofy. Guess that's why I have so much fun around here! 😀

My favorite way had been the simple poke to the side/ribs. I realzie not everyone is ticklish there but even a non-reaction allows me to ask "Oh, not ticklish?" and then go from there. It's fairly simple and usually works with everyone. I don't recommend going up to complete strangers though...lol...usually I am at least talking to them first...usually!
