I wish I could parse the concept of non-sexual tickling, and sexual tickling as easily as you girls.
Maybe it's because women are very emotionally driven as a whole, but I find it very difficult for me to seperate it from one to another on a personal scale.
Now this, unfortunately is not by choice. Unlike what Ann suggests, I don't see it as limiting me by choice of partner as much as limiting as in context. Tickling, can be a turn on in the worst of ways, sometimes in the most awkward of places.
I sometimes wish it didn't afflict me so. I have a strong sense of self-control, however it's a tormenting experience to walk in a park and see a couple playing on the grass through tickling. Or to even see a scene in a mainstream movie or show. Even to hear people talk about tickling can arise arousal in me, it's awkward. Hell it could even happen at church, omg! @_@
This doesn't mean it needs to lead to sex, or HAVE to be sexual, but I find it difficult to control my responses to it either way, I'd be lying to myself if I said tickling even a friend would cause no reaction in me. Tickling is a small power exhange, it's exposing vulnerabilities and expressing power, and makes both parties have to come relatively close to each other for it to even occur, in nature it's a personal experience, involves touch, and usually in situations that normally never happen.
Sounds like kissing almost. It can sometimes be that intimate, and seperating the two is a difficult process in my mind, even though you would never notice it in person.
...and yes, if you asked, that IS a gun in my pocket, and I am very happy to see you. :3
It's bad in a way, because sex doesn't do the same thing to me. I'm sort of immune to that sort of thing. I'm a very faithful person, and I'd find it near impossible to cheat on someone I'm in a relationship with. It'd be difficult for me to even stare at other women, yet if tickling was the nature of said relationship, it'd be hard not to feel aroused, even though my self-control is normally iron willed.
It's subconcious, and sometimes I wish it didn't afflict me like this, but then again, that is what a fetish is... a normally non-sexual activity or body part that causes strong arousal in those who possess it...
