I LOVE this thread. It should be labeled a "Must Read." Bravo Gals! You girls have addressed so many of the complaints that I have on on this forum.

Let people get to know you a bit through posts on the main forum before approaching people. That way they don't feel quite so pounced on. You might also start off slowly and get to know them a bit before asking all the typical TK questions. Otherwise, it's like we're a piece of meet to be picked over.
AMEN!

I do have a lot of galpals that REALLY resent the "age/weight" type of questions if that helps you out at all. I'm not one of them, and my friends have nothing to hide, it's just considered rude I think.
DITTO! Some of the questions asked go a lot farther than "age/weight." I hate it when things start getting too personal. Some questions about certain body parts should just not be asked. Oh, by the way, I know that most men think with their lower regions, but guys, keep your pecker in your pants unless you're asked to whip it out.

speaking as a female who gets many pm's a day, i try to be polite and courteous and always answer them, until they start wanting to cyber tickle back and forth. i wont do that. usually i just tell them i would rather not.
Oh good lord! Very good Isabeau! And lets not leave out the ones who want us to tickle ourselves. I have literally had to tell these guys that if I could stand to tickle myself, then I definitely wouldn't need a 'ler.

I mean really how many times can you get asked....what's your most ticklish spot? Some people just don't know how to converse, they just want to ask such stupid questions!
If I hear "Rate and list your ticklish spots on a scale of 1-10" one more time, I'm gonna scream.

For those of us (Ladies) who post a bit, We get asked the same questions over and over. Maybe read some of the ladies posts before PM'ing her! That way you can START the conversations with "Hi how are you" rather then "where are you most ticklish?". I know this is a tickling web site but we are human and like to be treated human!
No SHIT! It's almost like, why answer the posts if no one reads them? Not that I want folks to have to read back through each and every thread, but all of the questions I am asked, I have already answered on one or more of my posts. Considering the threads can be similar or overlap in subjects, some of these questions have already been answered more than once, a lot more than once.
Did you know that there are guys out there that I talk to that actually can talk about things other than tickling? I called one of the 'lers last night, fulfilling the promise I had made. OMG! We talked for 2 hours and the subject of tickling NEVER came up! You have NO idea how refreshing it was! This gentleman actually was interested in who I am as a person and not a tickle object. Imagine that!
Some of the folks I talk to are just downright pushy. When I say "No" I mean "No!" Keeping at it only makes you look desperate and pisses me off because you aren't listening.
DO NOT even think of asking for my phone number before I have gotten a chance to know you and feel comfortable talking to you here on the forums. It won't happen.
Keep in mind... first and formost we are ladies. Treat us like ladies.
So, Happy...
#1. Thank you for starting this thread. I have been wanting to get this off my chest for a while.
#2. I hope that this has helped you out.
(I've met a few of those here too.) At any rate, I'd drop her off your list and find a new pen pal.
