I first noticed that there was something about tickling I liked.....probably sometime around early 7th grade. For some strange reason, I was compelled to stare at girls' feet whenever they wore sandles and such. Eventually I began to realize that every time I saw someone getting tickled or tickled someone, that I would get aroused. One night, I went online, and put "tickling" into Yahoo. I found a bunch of pics, and got so excited I even started to shiver. After a while, I found that although upperbody tickling was appealing, foot tickling really got me going. It was really strange to me at that time. So then I took the next step and started finding video clips. Sadly enough, I was just starting to learn about masturbation, whereas I knew penty of guys who had been doing it since 5th grade. To this day, I have never seen any porn, but tickling videos in place of that. I never found porn appealing or interesting in any way as it is. Besides, feet get me a lot more excited than any other part of the female anatomy, and I'm obviously not ashamed to admit it. 😉

I knew that I was into it when I was about 13, when I saw an F/M mainstream tickling scene on television and became extremely aroused in a way that I didn't fully understand. I knew that liked it, and I wanted to see more! Later in life I became curious (and bold) enough to try it on someone, and became so consumed with passion that tickling has been a welcome part of my life ever since.

If there was a moment when it dawned on me I was too young to remember it.

 

[Budweiserbob!]

It all began one dark and miserable evening when the hand of our old wooden clock struch seven. I was at a young age of only 11 when I stumbled downstairs to play with my cousins Kirsty and Gemma. They had only just arrived and yet they brought over these pens that had a feathery top to them. I joined in. We all sat down and I realised my cousins were barefoot and for some odd reason, this interested me.
"What should we draw?" The older one (Kirsty) asked.
"How about ponies?" The younger one said.
"Nah, we always draw that," Kirsty replied. So in the end we decided to draw anything we wanted. Then the interesting part began. As I was drawing the tip of the pen (which was feathery remember) brushed against Gemma's bare and vulnerable foot. She giggled out loud and that hit me like a large wooden mallet.
"What's wrong?" My cousin Kirsty asked.
"The pen tickles," She replied while she began to blush. I was older than Gemma and also twice her size and it was at that point when I got an evil plot stirring up in my head. I rolled Gemma over and brushed the feathery pen against her foot and she let out an extremely loud giggle. I carried on until I felt something that I never felt before. But not to draw anything to anyone's attention I got up slowly and walked carmly to the bathroom door. I opened it and began to think, think thoughts that I never thought before. It was then that I realised...I was hitting puberty.

Ditto. I can remember early moments, but I know that there was a spark somewhere farther back, shrouded by time's misty veil.

 

[Timewarp]

I dare not speakth of my noticazation of this obsession. It brings me shame what I do with it. I'm not saying completely bazzare things. Just things from a religious point of veiw. I'm doing something about it. I can't say what though.

 

[Camel26]

I just always had babysitters and a few distant cousins who always tickled me from the get go...I remember when I was really young, playing this game with my neighbor where she was the bad guy, and I was the good guy, and she would "trap" me in her eveil lair (the couch) and would tickle me senseless...and I found from that point on, tickling, seeing someone being tickled, or even hearing the word made me feel funny...it wasn't until I was much older that I understood what that funny feeling meant, and that I had been blessed with this unique desire...😉

 

[Inocent_Angel]

😀 wow! i wish i had such an interesting story sadly mines a litte different, I never really like tickling, to be honest, I always had trouble breathing (they say now its with stress but i dont really believe it ive had it for so long)

But people always used to tickle me and i just got annoyed :grind_tee I think it was because my Uncle, who has downs syndrome (which is a mental thing incase you havnt heard of it) used to chase us and tickle me and my brother, but because he has his disability he never knew when to stop so i used to end up almost sufficatliing :no: which isnt good :wooha:

Then I started going out with my current boyfriend 😀 man, i knew id got lucky when we started going out :happy: (he's so good looking, all my friends were jelous.... apart from one who was still pretending she didnt fancy him) but anyway, he's always been strange, which i like, and i thought nothing sinister of him occassionally tickling me but i just told him to stop it and eventually just got annyoed :grind_tee

But one night i was on an online computer game with him and he sent the wrong PM to me asking me where i was ticklish :weird: hmmmm, and so i went on MSN and asked him why, and i was like "do i detect a fetish emurging?" which i was joking about and then he told me all about it 😀
Which I was like ".....what?" but im a very open minded person so i thought "ok..... dont get it, but lets try it"

So thats basically why im on this forum :happy: lol, trying to understand it more, get into the whole thing, now im not really bothered about being tickled, if other people do it to me i just tell em to stop it i dont get all annoyed anymore 😀 lol

Like others in this thread, I have loved tickling as far back as I can remember. I can't remember a time I didn't like it. Who knows what triggered it...maybe it was genetic. LOL I used to feel funny if I heard the word "tickle." Heck, I still do. I get flushed and excited/nervous all at the same time.

Naturally it did not take on sexual connotations til I was much older. (Not to say it ALWAYS has to be sexual...it can be just plain clean fun too). Around that time I began to realize two things: 1.) It could be just as much fun being the 'lee as it was the 'ler and 2.) damn, I was REALLY ticklish. I felt strange most of my life, like I was the only one who must feel this way. In college the internet opened up to me and I realized "holy hell, there are LOTS of people like me." Since that time I have tried to broaden mu horizons as much as possible and have come to realize tickling is fun whether you are the 'lee or 'ler, whether it's with guys or gals. Unfortunately I have yet to be really open about it in real life with folks, but luckily the Internet allows me to be open about it in an anonymous kind of way. 😉

Sites like this are testament to the amazing community we belong to.

I remember like it was yesterday. I'd had a foot fetish for quite some time, and my grasp on the internet was limited to Image Googling "feet" and stuff like that. Then one day I just had this thought, "it'd be sexy to watch a girl get her feet tickled'. I Googled it, and discovered that all this wasn't just some weird little thing that only I liked (thank God), but that there were tons of people who were the same way.

I first got into tickling when I was 12. I had about 8 friends over for a slumber party and they all pinned me down and tickled me everywhere. I have loved tickling ever since.

 

[andymac1]

When I was about 12 or 13, I was at a friends house and at that time, we were into medieval stories like Robin Hood and King Arthur etc. His sister and female cousin were playing with us and in turn we sat on their legs and tickle tortured their feet in our make believe dungeon. I think that's what started me off!

 

[tickledorange]

I remember being tickled since I was younger. People would always tickle me, and for some reason, I would try to get away, but at the same time I didn't want to.

 

[gilmourwaters]

my passion for tickling and feetstarted when i was very small...i remember liking both very much when i was 5 or 6......from that point everyone knew and throught out my life i've had no problems letting everyone involved in my private life know that info, which let me enjoy TONS of opportunities that i wouldv'e otherwise missed

 

[Lee1989]

I like this thread....

At a very young age I had fantasies about being tied up and tickled. But...

I realized that I had a thing for it when I was about 19. I had had a mysterious fascination with it AND I'd been tied up and tickled when I was 16. But I didn't make the connection between tickling and being aroused until I was 19. Sadly, the girl at the time wasn't interested in it. But it happened when we were in the adult movie store in Port Allen, LA. =) Yes, some of the members here may know the one I'm talking about - right next to the Mc Donald's. I saw that they had mags about tickling.... I was intrigued and bought one.

I still have the scars from that incident today. Brush burns never heal, do they? =)

Yes, I jerked myself off until I was bleeding. =)

But that was when the spark hit me - in that adult store.

Now I find my aging mind fully wrapping itself around the issue of tickling and what it does to my mind. Strangely, there's freedom in bondage. Freedom in the warm waters of these erotic events. Intimacy that comes from it when you're falling in love with the 'ler or 'lee.... Tis amazing.

For me I think it's something that partly runs in my family. I recall being very young though and asking to be tickled all the time, yeah I was real shy about that, lol. It seemed to be something on my mind alot although I didn't really realize how important it was at that point. Past relationships, there was always playful tickling but nothing major. A few years ago was watching late night tv and saw Yaqi on Howard Stern tickling these women. It was like a light bulb went off. I couldn't get that thought out of my head for a year although I tried very hard. After that it took a comment by a guy I was dating for me to do the internet search and from that point I never looked back. I dove in with both feet, so to speak. 😀

rofl I think it does run in the family. I NEVER would have mentioned it as a kid but my daughter does constantly. 😛

 

[Cbarton]

For me I was trying to write a mystery short story using being tickled to death as the ulimate, untraceable murder weapon. Puberty hit about the same time, may have been laying dormant waiting to come out wiht or without the story attempt, but htt brought it out for real.

 

[Mercury1]

I'm probably the most different one here. Unlike everyone else, I don't get off on tickling, I CAN live without it, I HATE the pornographic/sexual side of it, and I'm not into it and truthfully... I don't even know if I like it or not.

So why am I here?

Curiosity, I suppose. It all started... Well, I dunno when it all started. I was very young, to be sure. Children's television had a lot of it when I was a kid. Which really confuses me. :/ Everytime I saw it on TV, I can honestly say that I hated it. I was embarrassed by it, and whenever I knew it was about to happen, I would go into a different room and hum or talk to myself so I couldn't hear it. (I remember one time it happened on the Flinstones, and I actually covered my ears and looked over at my dad. Whether or not he thought anything of it or not is beyond me... But I did that).

But the point is, I don't really like the whole concept of tickling. I found this community out of pure curiosity. I didn't even KNOW there was a sexual side to tickling until I decided to search it on the internet and BAM! Every webpage dealing with tickling had a sexual side to it, and it truly disgusted me.

But here, I'm glad to find a variety, and I can safely avoid the more... Graphic of everything. But I'm gonna stop talking now before I bore y'all.

Toodles!

 

[MistressValerie1]

Fascinating, Mercury ... when I was pre-adolescent, I had the same dislike for tickling that you are describing. When it would occur on television, I would usually look away.

I became more favourably inclined towards it around the age of 12, but I never tried it out, so to speak, until I was much older.

Best regards,

 

[nessonite1]

I had the same avoidance when I was a kid. I still do actually if there are other people in the room. I have to try REAL hard to keep myself from being conspicuous about my embarrasment. 😛

i still sometimes get that 🙂

 

[Currahee1974]

i dunno when it dawned on me, i think i always have been the same...as a kid it would be like butterflies in my stomach when seeing someone being tickled..or even the very mention of the word.

So, maybe I was born that way, it is like being gay or strait, one does not become gay, that is the way they are born,,,I was not born gay, but born witha tickling/foot fetish...that would be me...

well, hope that assists your curiousity...

[ticklish_spirit]

There's no doubt in my mind it must have just clicked or something at one point. But it must have been so long ago...I don't even remember. I don't remember watching or doing anything at any point and realizing what tickling was to me. It was always "something" to me from the begining. Hehe, maybe I was a Chinese tickle slave in a past life or something.
