How do you feel about yourself?

[wishfoot88]

hi all
ive read through alot of posts about outing yourself and how embarressing it can be and how nice it can be.
but how do you feel about yourself?
i know that i am a bit weirded out by it myself.
even i dont think its normal.
i recently told someone who has accepted it and thinks its cute, which boosted my self esteem. she doesnt think its weird though. i have always felt a bit weird and almost shameful about it, though i am much more comfortable about it now.
was it the same for you?
have you become more comfortable as a tickle lover now?

I'm totally comfortable with my fetish. Although I know it is not "normal". Or, better, BECAUSE it is not normal! 🙂 Normal people are boring. 🙂

I've always been fascinated with fetishes and what turns people on. Everyone have different preferences, and mine is tickling. 🙂 I honestly never thought of it as weird! 😀

It ebbs and flows with me. Sometimes I'll log on here, stare at the banners and ad's and think, "holy fuck. I've got a kink for this. What the fuck?" Other times I'll just go with it.

I feel pretty darn good.

I agree with Carsomyr, I'm curious about others fetishes or turn ons. But the few people I told, are cool with it.

It's nothing to be embarassed about, and it's not weird at all. There is NOT a single person on this earth that does not have something that makes them horny more so than just plain old naked bodies.

Of course its Weird. Ask anyone..they'll tell ya..its weird ! Thats ok though, weirdness is the spice of life.
Take it from a "weirdo" like me, its much better than being..(I hate this word)...Normal...

I feel really good about me and how I feel about feet and tickling

If it comes up in conversation, I don't lie.
I certainly don't have a problem with people knowing I'm a bit kinky. I just like to keep the details amongst people who I might actually engage in some play with.

I love my fetish.
I dislike myself. (I don't think I'm good enough, for my high, high standards.)
I hate living.

I'm comfortable with being a tickle lover, yes, but I'm not and never will be comfortable about it around vanillas. I will only be comfortable about it around my own kind; other than that, I keep my fetish life totally under wraps. I wouldn't keep it under wraps from my significant other - future aspect here - but if they were vanilla and they weren't into being my 'ler, then I'm not totally sure if the relationship would last, or if it did, if it would be as good as it could live up to being.

I'm now very comfortable with myself and my fetish. 🙂 About two years ago I was significantly less comfortable with it. And then, I joined the army. Somehow all the experiences I've had, and all the hard stuff I've had to go through since then, make me not really care what other people think of my sexuality. Why should I? It seems such a small thing to worry about in the scheme of things.

I'm awesome, and everything I do is awesome.

Pretty much this.

If you think it's some big, giant "thing" or "issue", it becomes just that.

Having recently experienced a break-through in my own ticking career, I feel damned terrific.

High 5 on that one..

 

[Speedbump]

Better than wanting to shit/piss or be shit/pissed on. Or anything with animals. So I feel good.

 

[sasaxrah]

I like me. I really, really like me.

^ Almost always... psyched!!!

 

[Angel77]

I like me for the most part. As for the fetish side of me, I figure there could be worse things that I could be interested in lol.

 

[Sandisk444]

i still have the feeling that the fetish is weird and abnormal but it's not as bad as before when i first discovered it. i wouldn't even think about it lol

 

[playgirl]

i love it. i also just wrote my first blog about an eye-opening experience last night.

 

[maniactickler]

Im ok with myself. just a bit disappointed with my scat fetish.

I'm comfortable with myself in relation to the 'fetish'. I am interested in others sexual interests and try to be tolerant as such.

However, I am fully aware that I may be perceived as 'weird' or 'perverse'.
