How do looks play a part in your tickling lifestyle?

[clm13]

Do you like tickling anyone, or just people you find attractive?

 

[steph]

welcome newbie and...

No.
I mean, I'm mostly lee, but what they look like means nothing (I've said this a million times but it still holds) How they make me feel is EVERYTHING!
XOXO

I have to be somewhat attracted to the person thats's tickling me (or vice versa) if the tickling fun escalates to turning me on.

You'll typically find two different answers to this question, based on whether tickling is inherently sexual for one or not.

For those who do equate tickling as a sexual act, more or less, then 99% of the time the appearance of their tickle partner is extremely important. They must be sexually attracted to the person they are playing with, as sexual feelings come from the experience and one usually must be physically attracted to someone they are considering having sex with.

For those who enjoy tickling for it's fun and playful nature, and view it as a friendly display of affection, the appearance of their tickle partners rarely matters much at all. They are in it for the pure joy to be had at the tickling sensations and sound of delightful laughter. Since they are nothing more than friends with those they engage in tickle play with, what they look like does not factor in. People usually do not pick their platonic friends based on their physical attractiveness.

I happen to fall into both catagories. The only person who's physical appearance matters to me in terms of tickling is my fiance, Lazarus. And that is because he is the only person I am intimate and sexual with. Anyone else I engage in tickling with is strictly a friend, and their appearance plays no role what-so-ever in how much fun they are in a tickling match. When it comes to tickling outside of my bedroom, I go for a fun personality and a good friendly aura over all else. I can have a blast with someone who is unnattractive but a total sweetheart, but I can not with someone who is sexy as hell but a complete asshole.

Looks are essential to me in tickling. I mean, they can be quick looks, just to see how things are going. But I can't really tickle someone that I can't see.

*groans* Mr. Red should be strung up and tickled for that one. Blindfolded, no less. 😛oke3:

Looks matter to me alot. I'm not asking for a supermodel, but I'm not talking about MTV's Daria that gained 60 pounds after her show. Tickling for me is strictly a turn-on. It's not like by looking at a casual ticklefight that I'll get turned on all the time, because I'm uninvolved. But if I am the one tickling, it's just expected from myself now. Since I've sorta decided that I want to reserve tickling mainly for a girlfriend, looks are an important factor in all attraction

 

[LoveSoles81]

I don't care what the female looks like. I just enjoy tickling. As for being in a relationship, I have to be attracted to her.

What'd I do? I couldn't think of any other "looks" that make any difference. Did he mean something else?

 

[TheFactor]

I think attitude means more to me than looks. If someone's crappy to me than tickling them is the last thing I'd want to do to them. And that is simply because tickling is a personal thing to me and it means a lot to me.

 

[TicklishLurker]

Well, first off, I'm mainly a 'Lee. I do fantasize about tickling women (I would never, ever, EVER tickle a man, I do not like */m tickling, never have, I just do not like seeing men being all submissive) but I never got the chance.

Second, being by society's definitions, ugly, I have absolutely no right to judge people by looks. Do I? Occastionally - mostly I find the people that other people think are beautiful, ugly - IE: Paris Hilton, Mel Gibson, Tom Cruise, etc. To me, Leo DiCaprio is one of the most hidious men on earth.

I'm more attracted to the mind and personality then looks. Though I do admit there's certain male looks that gets my motor going really hard. Even as a little kid I had a preference for men who were built on the slender side - Mr. Spock, Data, Barry Manilow, etc. And men with big noses, Mr. Spock, Data, Alan Rickman, Sherlock Holmes, Dracula, Barry Manilow, etc. Also I prefer a man who's at least a little bit taller then me - though if he towers over me all the better (like say Ryan Styles) - and men much older then me.

That last is the most important. I do not want to date, be tickled by, or be anything other then casual friends with a guy 30 or younger. I just am not attracted to such men. I find they're just not mature enough mentally to stimulate me. I feel like I'm babysitting.

So other then the age thing, the looks don't really matter. You could be The Phantom Of The Opera for all I care. I have no right to judge and if you get my mind going, then that's all I need in the long run to be attracted to you.

As for women - eh, she just has to be ticklish and willing to be tied up and tickled, and allow me to bring her to orgasm. Though I still haven't gotten a chance to do it or get tickled by a woman. *heavy sighs* And I really, really want to.

For both genders though, they must - MUST bathe regularly. They have to smell nice! No massive BO, no reeking of urine or feces, no just plain looking dirty, no greasy hair. I'm almost obsessive about how I smell. I've been known to scrub areas that are likely to stink until they're raw. I do not want to be around someone who smells like they've been rolling in a pig trough.

DAMN!!!!

Just when I thought I knew EXACTLY what you wanted!

😛 Hello Clm13. 😛
What a great question.
I would not play any tickling games with someone I did not like.
I do like a LER who is muscular, and can throw me over his shoulder........yum.
As far as having chemistry with someone, it's either there or it isn't.

Oh come on, like you didn't know. Heck, I posted a big old thing in GD as to my liking older men. I may enjoy some benifits of women's lib, but in the long run I'm an old fashion girl who longs to be treated in mostly an old fashion way. Plus, even though I can be very silly and immature, there's many aspects of me that are mature enough that I need a man on my mental level - and sorry, but men in their 30s or younger just don't cut it. Even if they're incredibly smart, they're still not mature enough. I need mental stimulation more then looks to be attracted to someone.

The big nose thing I don't know where it comes from. I just know that even very young, though my father's nose is not big, I always loved a man with a big old nose. Same thing with the thinness. Even though there's big men I'm attracted to (you know who you are), thin men have always gotten my motor running. I can't stand men who are built like Welsey Snipes. Total turn off.

The height thing, well, even when the guy is really thin, when he's taller then me by a couple of inches to a foot or more makes me feel very protected and girly with him.

One thing I've learned from this forum is that even though we all share a love of tickling, we're all still different as people. Of course we're all going to have different views on who we would like to tickle/be tickled by. Well done TicklishLurker for not being afraid to express yours!

[tcklft]

As tickling for me is sexual, looks are important. So are hygeine, temperament and intellect. Good question!

Good for you! Exercise is wonderful!

 

[Ticklee1973]

Even if there's no sexual outcome to the session, I have to be somewhat attracted to my ler and I have to like their personality or have some sort of connection with them otherwise I don't bother.

 

[Mr.Tickler]

Even though I have yet to "act out" my tickling fantasy with a woman in a relationship, it is an erotic thing for me.So looks do matter on some levels. I'm a finnicky guy to a degree, but not in the way most people would think.For example, it wouldn't have to be a super-model that would turn me on in an enacted tickling fantasy.Just someone clean, decent-looking, and into it themselves.A girlish giggle goes a long way for Mr. Tickler.A very large part of the enjoyment for me would be knowing they are enjoying it.That's paramount.But she could be a "little chubby", not obese or a battle ax,though.I like small women in general, but I like feminine women above all else.I think this goes back to the chick I saw getting tickled so mercilessly when I was young.She was a cheerleader for that school,but she also worked in the cafeteria.She was above average, but not perfect.And her feet have gotta be right, though.That's REAL important factor for yours truly.Legs too, they need to be smooth and take care of, but not its OK if they're slightly chubby.Allright, sorry for rambling here, folks.

 

[Mr.Tickler]

I really need to work on my spelling and sentence structuring,lol.What I meant with that last part is her legs can be a little chubby, just smooth,clean, and cared for.

 

[lergirl69]

Looks matter not to this Ler. 🙂 As long as he has a great personality and likes to be tickled (I don't tickle any guys whom I don't already know they like to be tickled -- even casually), it doesn't matter to me what he looks like. Though insanely ticklish feet are definately a plus.

 

[wendynpeter]

I am an adult. I have a tickling fetish. With other adults, tickling is always acting on that fetish. It's at least flirting. Usually it's foreplay. I wouldn't tickle any adult I wouldn't kiss. So for me, looks are exactly as important in tickling as they are in dating.

 

[Amanda]

I don't not-tickle people if i'm not attracted to them. But for it to be sexual i have to be attracted to them.

 

[chicago]

I'm like Mimi, if someone I'm attracted to is tickling me then it makes it that much more fun. Of course, it's not always looks that makes me attracted to someone I've found out.

But anyway, as long as I'm comfortable with the person it's usually fun.
