nudity vs. clothing in tickle videos

[Haltickling]

I stand corrected, ST, indeed I forgot about those FM vignettes. Seems I'll have to watch them again (do a bodycheck on Janacek, so to say 🙂)...

Thanks for the additional info, TTD. I don't know any of the other companies you mentioned, maybe they were already gone when I came to the internet a few years ago. The best CalStar nudie video was their very first 'Tied&Tickled', with only a few good ones to follow. A very sensual CalStar video is 'Tickling in the Hood' though.

I'd like to also add that an outstanding CalStar video featuring nudity (well, actually, they all feature nudity) among the later ones was "Tenderfoot," starring Tori Sinclair and Nikki Nova. Two absolutely gorgeous women, and their ticklishness is beyond dispute! 😎

In going through older posts, I came across this and had to comment:

In my case, pics (and vids, when I see any) are a "fantasy aid", so I prefer F/M (or FFetc/M, or FMFFMFetc/M) to anything else...while picturing myself in the /M role 😛. And in such cases, I strongly prefer the /M nude, which is exactly how I desperately want tickles, by as many people at once as possible while utterly helpless 😛.

The 'lers can be nude or not, with a slight preference for nude, especially lady 'lers 🙂.

I should mention that while spending time in Oregon, I adapted to clothing-optional hot-tub situations well, I find I have very little natural modesty and enjoy overcoming what little I have.

At a screened gathering, with people I'd previously talked to online around here, I'd love situations where I could allow people to tickle me anywhere they wanted, even by surprise. I realize that not everybody is like that, and I wouldn't need "reciprocal permission" - I don't have any innate urge to be a 'ler and I realize some are in this who are likewise low on the 'lee scale (or are shy?) and would be uncomfortable giving a whole group "general permission" the way I would.

But in my case, suddenly feeling hands from behind (at a trusted gathering) tickling without my knowing who, or even what gender, would be the sort of fun that would make me shut my eyes in bliss while quivering all over...and if those same hands slid "below the belt" in any way, utter heaven 😛😛😛. Even better with yet more friends watching, I must admit to an exhibitionist streak (pardon the pun) 😀.

clothed, or naked

good question. i find ticklig to be a sexual activity. so semi nude is best. i will say though, that i don't like beaver shots in a tickle video either, unless the "beaver" is being tickled, but if it's a f/f video then parkas are what i want to see.

I might be overfocused or something,but nudity is not a requirement for me in tickle vids or pics.Since my favorite tickle spot is female feet,they and the face are the only body parts that need to be exposed at all.I find that many times full nudity even detracts from the vid or pic.If I want a tickle vid or pic,I want a tickle vid or pic.If I want a nudie,I'll get porn, and that is very infrequent.

My take on the nudity vs clothing issue...

Here are my thoughts...
Basically where ever skin or clothing is showing it should be tickled!!!
What I mean is, if the person is naked then I expect the naked areas to be tickled!!!
So if the breasts are jiggling around, I expect those breasts to be tickled, same with the nether regions!!!😱
The clothing or lack of clothing should set the mood for the tickling.
Clothing adds to the fantasy being laid out by the video producer.
A French maid outfit is a perfect example.
You expect to see the lady in a short ruffled skirt, black stockings, and eventually those areas to be tickled, but the ticklee does not need to end up naked...unless those naked areas are too be tickled.

 

[Joe98]

I certainly like nude women being tickled, but some clothing is good too if the area being tickled is exposed. Sometimes I like a woman to be blind folded, but more often I'd rather she wasn't. I don't like gagging women, puting something in or over her mouth. It interfears with her laughter, her screaming and her ability to talk. I don't like how it looks either.

 

[terorizer]

I don't have much of a preference one way or the other in a vid, because I think they both offer a different element. However, just like any other visual thing, I think there should be a discernable purpose for the nudity. I agree with TCREWME, if a woman is topless, tickle there, if a guy is bottomless, tickle there, and so on.

nudity

if the video is done well with a cute female clothes are fine but for most guys( i think is fair to say) nudity is a big plus in watching it

 

[maniactickler]

I prefer the women to be in a bikini or bra and panties.

 

[ChosenofMystra]

I've always been partial to nude tickling myself. Makes the 'lee seem more vulnerable and open to the experiance of being tickled if ya get what I'm saying.

 

[brianspencer66]

Ive had a slew of things both purchased online and in VHS format from Paradise Vision, MTP, Real Tickling, French Tickling etc. For the most part Ive never taken into consideration if the model was nude or not into serious consideration, just the content of the tickling. That has been my sole basis on judging if the product is any good or not. I understand commercial considerations come into the equasion and only the vendors see the bigger picture.
But from my perspective I ve always found clothed models that look like everyday people much more realistic, and not as contrived as thongs or nudity. Its sort of a shame that vendors are forced to make more vids with lots of nude content just for the sake of nude content. Tickling to alot of people will always be sexual or fun to watch nude or clothed.

 

[Capnmad]

Tickling, to me, can be sexual, simply friendly, or some no man's land between them. It's context specific. My big thing is reactions... They have to be ticklish, they have to have good reactions. I'm a guy, so I'm naturally never opposed to seeing a naked woman, but that certainly isn't the be all and end all...

Still, for me, I think nudity in videos must accentuate the psychological impact on the model -- the fact that all areas are exposed and vulnerable. Maybe it's me projecting this assumption on the models, but I like to think there's just a touch more heightened reaction there among them if they have a sense that everything is "up for grabs", so to speak, whether in fact it is or is exploited, or not... And like I said, it's all about the reactions.

That said, it's hardly always the case, as I've purchased a number of clips with some degree of nudity or another where the reactions were horrible or simply not to my liking.

It's interesting, though... The more I think about it, the more I believe my aforementioned assumption is probably wishful thinking, and is only one of several possible engines that accounts for the disproportionate inclination for people to buy nude or less-clothed clips... They see the nudity, hope it will be more intense by some line of thought similar to what I mentioned, purchase, and after a touch of buyers remorse, often, just go about their business, only to be duped again later by the same assumption... Like people playing the slots: "Maybe this time will be the payoff." -- Maybe this one will be more intense. And the slots that get played the most often have the flashiest lights -- that's what nudity may simply be, in reality. Shiny, flashy lights that draw attention of the buyer.

2002? Jeez Louise, bump much?

 

[BellaRisa]

Hmmm...my 3 cents...

Apparently I missed this thread the first time around.

BellaRisa won't have many nekkid 'lees, even though nude sells very well, for a few reasons: I tend to use my girlfriends and their aquaintances, and while they don't mind being tied and tickled half to death (well, not at first, heh 😉 ) on camera, they usually don't wanna be naked. I understand and respect that; I'll take a friend that I know from experience is ticklish as hell, dressed in lingerie or mummified, over Jane Random Model any day. Also, I basically only film what I'd want to watch as a consumer, and as a switch I prefer outfits that are pretty and that I can use to my benefit mentally and physically. You would think that naked = more vulnerable, but quite often that just sends the mind straight to overexposure. A 'lee often feels waaayyy more vulnerable and uber-ticklish in clothing that can be s l o w l y lifted up or reached into, it adds a dreadfully and deliciously violating sense of invasion that you don't get if they start out naked . And I'd always rather have a beautifully wrapped present to unwrap than one that's just handed to you, so I like removing socks or cutting away hose to get to bare toes ; it's just more fun and sexier, to me anyways . So occasionally a girl may end up nekkid but I'll rarely start 'em that way...

Here's what I love doing myself:

I like lifting up the subject's shirt, and sliding my hands under, and heading for the abdomen, or the stomach, or the underarms, all the places I love. If the subject is already nude, it's like, a part of my own fun has been removed.

However, I like having much better access to thighs and knees...so I prefer short pants. Go figure.

The greatest thrill of all's slowly removing footwear and undergarments...

I mean, nothing really wrong with nudity, but, as far as tickling's concerned, I could very much live without it.

 

[cloudgazer2k]

if one were to browse my collection of tickling and bondage vids/clips, they would see that 85% of it features clothed models. even the pictures i have taken of CS2K have little to no nudity in them. clothing leaves something to the imagination and, especially where sexy lingerie is concerned, gives a bit more eye candy to me. i'd rather see a hot, tanned brunette in a skimpy black outfit than see her totally nekkid.

 

[4Pawz]

For me, it depends who I am playing with. Nudity can be fun in the appropriate situations, but I am generally more comfy having some clothing on. Kinda like Knoxie's deal, I like the feeling of hands sliding under my shirt and up my sides. Seems more fun that way....

 

[Feathery]

With tickling videos, I prefer the lee to be nude and the ler(s) to be dressed, as it heightens the submissive/dominant scenario. What I really love, and it's hard to find, is when a lee is undressed while being tickled, either by a gang who overwhelms her, or by one or more lers who tickles and undresses her to the point where she's so tickled silly she can't defend herself from being stripped. In real life, I enjoy starting out dressed and slowly undressing her to where she's nude or in sexy lingerie... but of course it always leads to sex, so then I'm eventually nude as well.

 

[mike273273]

I mainly watch f/m and some f/f.

I prefer that the lee is clothed, but not fully. Ie if it is a guy and f./m tickling then I like them to only be wearing shorts so they are at there most ticklish. If I was in a ticklish session i"d prefer to only wear shorts so i"d be most ticklish. If it is a girl and f/f tickling, then I prefer them to be wearing a bikini so they are at their more ticklish.

As for the ler, I don't like them to be nude either. I like them to be wearing some clothes. I usually like it when the female ler wears a sleeveless top or bikini because then you can see their arms doing all the tickling.

 

[TckleBelly2006]

For me, as long as all of the extremeties are covered, then I am fine with it!

 

[GirlWhoLikes2Laugh]

I would definitely like to see both men and women wearing at least some clothing rather than naked. I know if I were in a tickle video, I'd like to probably wear at least shorts or something like that.

 

[Ticklemmmeeeeee]

Okay, my response is a bit involved and particular (surprise,lol). Here goes:

Most male ticklers look better to me when fully clothed unless he is tickling another male and has already been tickled, then I think it's hot if he is barely dressed and rataliates.

Male ticklees optimally should be wearing jeans and nothing else, but only if he is attractive, if he isn't all that attractive he should be fully clothed... however, if he is extremely ticklish I can overlook the aesthetic deficiencies🙂

Female ticklers should be clothed fully at all times, don't ask me why.

Female ticklees should be partially nude only if they have a nice body (I am aware that is very subjective). I'm pretty picky so I rarely see tickling videos that please me...I usually always have some complaint or another about it,lol.

that's all for now🙂

[The Sean Man]

I like them wearing SOME clothing....it's like the wrapping on a christmas present. Sure, a nude woman is....well...a nude woman....but a woman wearing a sexy bikini, or a tank top with some short shorts is SMOKIN'!

 

[jaba]

ladies in blue jeans and sweaters are the sexiest!.....

I definetly prefer the models clothed, in fact I think the perfect attire for a tickle vid is to have a barefoot gal in jeans and a blouse or sweater. Adds to the realism. Of coarse, this is my opinion....and what do I know anyway?

Drew

Drew, we think alike on this, and the tickle media I have seen with ladies in these outfits have been far sexier to me that the full blown nude tickle vids....ladies in blue jeans and sweaters are a turn on for for me in many situations anyway....I just am aroused by that look....

and I think you are right about the realism issue....this is probably a tickle outfit that a lady lee would very likely be wearing in spontaneous private tickle play...most of my private tickle situations do not end up in full nude tickle play....


most.....
