Most Ticklish Nationality?

[brnbch]

Why is it considered even remotely racist to ask this question? When will we get it that it's OK that we're not all the same. There are physiological differences between a lot of the worlds races!
It's found that the people that inhabit regions closer to the equator have built in defenses against melanoma and malaria VS people who come from the more northern regions who have no defenses like these but have certain immunities against cycle cell.
I've also heard that a study showed that biologically, Native Americans are a number of times more predisposed to alcoholism than Asians because of an certain enzyme found in their system.
This is going to sound weird but...I've had a theory for years that TRUE brunettes have prettier feet (at least the features I would call pretty in a foot) than blonds. My theory is that most brown haired women have lineage from a euro-Mediterranean country..IE: Spain, France, Italy, Greece etc, etc.
Women from these areas tend to have what we Americans call an ethnic look. Meaning, stronger straighter nose, high cheek bones, longer oval face and of course darker olive skin color...so why not a certain foot shape also?

...and if we can agree that it's possible to have a certain shape of nose, lips or foot (long & narrow, high arches and longish toes) in a specifically Geo-ethnic group,.. than without emotional responses and PC leanings...why isn't is posible for a group to have more of the physiological traits that make someone ticklish?
Whether it's more nerve clusters in the ticklish spots or increased sensitivity in the top skin layer or whatever..this is just another biological trait handed down from the former generation.
So I think, by saying that "Asians seem to be more ticklish (per capita)"... could be no worse than saying "Most Asians have darker hair"

Because this always happens when people get fixated on race period. Whenever someone puts a racial spin on anything, including tickling, you're going to get folks who are going to be offended. Some of these people get singled out in their workplaces based on race, religion, or some category all day long. Then they come here where they think and feel accepted only to run into this topic every so many weeks.

I'm too old to really care at this stage of my life, but there are obviously some who do get tired or even offended that this topic comes up. No one asks what religion is most ticklish? No one asks if tall or short people are more ticklish. No one even asks if bigger or smaller people are most ticklish. But this race thing has turned up at least once a month.

I've tickled EVERY nationality listed and my vote is:

....it doesn't matter! If a woman is ticklish, she's ticklish. It doesn't matter what her nationality is.

I don't think people are getting fixated on race. It's just a question about bio-ethnic groups. Because someone asks a question about a certain race doesn't mean they're not accepting of that race. It means they are curious about that race. Because of bigotry..we can't ask questions about race anymore?
The supposed questions like tall or short, bigger or small are obviously illogical questions because they're body types that have no consistent biological traits.
If your an accountant and somebody asks if accountants are more ticklish than other vocations are you offended? Are we singling you out for anything bad? I remember a long thread about skinny people being more ticklish. Where was the indignation there? I didn't hear anybody complaining that we were singling out people with a low body fat.
It's because any questions, no matter how benign, about race is under scrutiny and is looked at with a slanted eye as to always wonder what the askers intentions are first instead of wondering if it's valid question.
Ticklishness isn't a bad thing so why is wondering if certain ethnic groups tend to more ticklish a bad thing?

The only thing I will concede on this subject is the stereotypes of Asian women tend to reduce them to among other things, submissive sex servants. And since tickling is mostly a sexual device on this board and in this community at large...the fantasy of a whole race being the ideal tickle subject would tend to color views of the race itself.
But I was just addressing the science ...and that it might have physiological merit

Who gives a shit. If your black white asian mexican or fat tall skinny super skinny very overweight some what overweight or bald with a full head of hair.

If your ticklish then your ticklish. Just leave it at that as is.

When a person asks a loaded question, they should expect a loaded answer. Little out here is more loaded than race. Why don't they ask about accountants or people of religions, or any other category of people than racially?

Besides, it shouldn't matter-ticklishness is universal and crosses racial, political, socio-economic lines. Maybe it should be just left at that.

I would like to volunteer to personally tickle women from all races, and I will get back to you when I have completed my......research.

I voted Asian, too. Tickle Japan has some terrifyingly ticklish women.

The guy in your signature pic looks like Alice from the Brady Bunch.. made me laugh.

 

[Ray<3tiklishft]

Tickling women who are different nationalities.......

While they may not all speak English, at least they all speak the same language while being tickled...."LAUGHTER"....and that's a good thing!!!!!

 

[NoixdeCoco]

I agree with butterfly_wings, it shouldn't matter...but since we're on the topic - Yay I'm asian!!

 

[chicago]

I doubt it has anything to do with nationality, but if it did, I'd probably say the really fair skinned people like from Scandinavia are probably most ticklish, just because they have really fair skin and probably really sensitive too. They burn really easily and that sort of thing... Just my opinion. Anyway...

 

[Angel_2]

I got to go with black girls because they hate it so much

 

[kirasao]

I wonder...

In all seriousness (a concept that I'm not particularly fond of), is there a reason that this thread is still hot?

 

[chicago]

i dunno.....
