It was common, on USENET, to label posts both by type (fiction vs. true) and by genderal orientation (M/f, F/f, F/m, M/m, with MF/f when both genders top, etc). Might be useful to post stories here thusly.
Side note for the original poster: I made a website, back in '95, with an archive of true posts known at the time. I gathered them from USENET, and from submissions to me.
Before you ask why it's not been updated in three years, do realize that, by '99, there were several USENET archives from which one could search, by groups, for all posts containing the title "story" or "true" or "/f", etc. It's a bit of work to find them, but anyone can. Maintaining a library is a pain, quite frankly, and doin' it for free is largely thankless. There were some kind folks who did thank me, bless 'em, but there's better things for me to do, like start and continue to run gatherings for half a decade, make video clips for several tickling video companies, contribute to other websites in our community, etc. There's only SO much free time, after all, and there were and are things to do (like meet the woman ultimately married).
What? Don't know where to do to find old stories from USENET? Here's my helpful USENET search tips for ya:
1) go to
http://groups.google.com/
It's the current location found when selecting
Groups from the Google page.
2) click on the "Advanced Groups Search" link in
the upper right corner of the page.
3) From here, enter the search prefs you want. For ALL the true stories, a good one is to look for this:
Find messages with all of the words "true story"
in USENET groups alt.multimedia.tk, alt.sex.fetish.tickling (do include the comma)
Return messages posted ANYTIME
That gets 76. just using "true" gets over a thousand, but many "false positives".
Then try this:
Subject contains "true"
in USENET groups alt.multimedia.tk, alt.sex.fetish.tickling (do include the comma)
Return messages posted ANYTIME
Here, using posts that have "true" the subject rewards those story writers who bothered to tell you that theirs is a true story. Gets 193 finds, but some false positives again. Still, it finds a lot, fairly quickly. Whaddaya want for nothing?

There are more ways to find more specifics. Noting who wrote good stories, and searching all their posts, is a good one.
Do note that many stories were reposted. You'll get duplicates.
There are over a thousand stories, true and fiction posted there, though. I have an archive of at least that many, and most came from there. Needless to note, I favor the written word.
Happy hunting!
