Question About Tickle Fetish Ingeneral To All?

[dskodj]

O.K., I couldn't help but have to post a thread and question to all here after seeing several posts over time about finding lees and lers etc. Some of the ways I see people talk about tickling, you'd think it was just a hobby/fun passtime like goin shopping or coin collecting lol

Now here's my question...tickling to me is a sexual arrousal thing, and when I've "played" with someone for tickling in the past...even if we don't have technical "intercorse" sex..there's getting off involved, not just a "fun passtime" as I see a ton of people making it out to be around here.

I guess im just a little confused..maybe people are leaving out the details on how they got off on being the ler or lee with their tickle friend/partners? (which is totaly understandable to leave that part out).

For me personally, my major fetish is feet tickling in different and creative ways (i have a wild imagination to come up with role play senereos and different methods, tools etc and experiement with the right person) and well..im sure yas can imagine WHAT happens in the end that doesnt involve actual intercorse LOL

So tell me this folks, IS IT really just a fun/non sexual related passtime for alot here or is it the fact im reading some posts wrong? Been wondering this for a long time..may have posted about it before in the past but never been this direct bout it. So lets hear it folks! Whats up? 🙂

Hmmm...

As in most things it depends on the person. For me either or, based on the lee"s desires. I will say that it is very arousing 4 me. Sometimes I take care of it "later", sometimes don't. It's just fun, especially when u have a willing partner.

yes yes. tickling is just fun. tickling and sex are different unless youre wasted and/or plan to have sex then they can go together. it goes tickling and then sex or just sex (with some brushed in tickling in there but its not the main part)

No, dskodj. In the early 1990s, I hired an escort for the express purpose of tickling her feet (in fact, I wrote a story about it around here somewhere). She was very nice, but she knew how to make a living. Quote: Tickling feet is serious business, sir.

I couldn't have said it better myself. For me, tickling is 100% sexual, 100% arousing and 100% pleasurable.

Yippie!!!!!!!!! Got 1 like me so far 🙂 I'd be interested to read that story too btw.

Tickling is primarily sexual for me too... so that's at least two of us, on this entire adult forum! 😀

Actually, from what I can tell, most posters on TMF acknowledge that tickling is a sexual activity when it's done with a sexual partner - just not at other times with other people. And while I understand that tickling with friends is sometimes just playful, even for us... I also suspect most people are actually just covering over their real response to an activity they fetishize. If tickling a friend turns you on, and the friend is unaware of this fact, that might put you in a tricky ethical position. I think many people simply choose not to acknowledge their arousal, to avoid having to consider the rightness or wrongness of what they're doing.

I think this extends to some folks' perception of this "hobby" in general. If you don't want to think of yourself as the kind of person who has a fetish, or is preoccupied with sex at all, you can refuse to acknowledge that aspect of why you come here and view material that is created specifically to cause arousal. This sort of denial is an unfortunate holdover from our Puritanical roots, if you ask me. 🙄

Fun vs. serious Passtime

You post a good question. As you meet more members of this forum, you'll discover like I did, that everyone sees tickling very different!! Kind of like Psychologists that have you analyze those "ink-blots". (everyone sees something different)

I'm a belly-dancer and love to take tickling very seriously. Never just for play or fun. I do a dance, wearing a very sensual costume and love to be rewarded at the end of my dance with tickling to arouse me! There are parts of a woman's belly that if touched properly, can lead to a very strong sensation! ( I never understood the foot-fetish that members seem to have)

Well said! Everything you said makes perfect sence and I myself have thought a few things along these lines as well.

 

[dskodj]

Well that's cause you dont have the fetish as I do (well, foot tickling fetish..not into suckin toes and all that crap). 😀

Glad to see more folks on the same wavelength as me here and that im not alone on this ADULT forum! 🙂

 

[Eroticklee]

Tickling is definitely arousing to me. Even playful tickling gives me a rush. But I do agree that it depends on the tickler/ticklee relationship and how the tickling is done.

 

[P[a]pi]

Tickling is sexual for Meka and I and we mix tickling and sexual activities together a lot, but we can also do each one seperately.

now for the part of tickling a friend would be a different matter. if you were getting aroused tickling your friend and that friend is not your significant other or sex partner. then youve got issues. you let your 'perversion' and shit hit the fan and roll downhill. you need to not think about that and show some self-control as a decent person. unless your 'friend' dont really give a flying fuck which i highly doubt and would less likely be the case.

also people would not necessary come here and specifically view material that is created for the purpose of arousal. that stuff is just there just because...it after all needs to somewhat attract and/or gain business from certain people whom are believed to come here for that purpose. make money to support itself and make money. not to mention there really is no forum or media board that is for the purpose of only tickling..without the porn and bullshit.... all the porno people can ignore. that is all.

Very good point made, too.

The act of tickling is not sexual unless it is performed deliberately on errogenous zones such as the genitals, breasts or testicles. Tickling of the feet, ribs, and armpits to provoke uncontrollable laughter is not sexual, period. You're own perceptions of these acts may excite you sexually, but that does not make the acts themselves sexual. Last night, I was tickled by a woman who is a very close friend of my wife and myself. This was in no way sexual. Whatever thrill I got from it was from my own perceptions and associations, and really nobody's business but my own.

Another misconception is that any forum for ADULTS automatically flags every topic discussed as sexual in nature. Most adults that I've known are actually able to carry on adult conversations with other adults that have absolutely nothing to do with sex. I say "most" because there are one or two who still have not matured beyond the point in which sex is the be-all end-all of human existance. I always get a chuckle over some amoral hedonist who goes into great detail about the orgasm she had the previous night with a man other than her husband or how horny some cocky, hormone-overdosing dude is to strap down a hot babe and have his way with her.

Finally, it's time to address this notion that those who choose to talk about things other than sex do so out of a sense of religious propriety or left-over puritanism. In my opinion this is a snotty attitude born of elitist hedonism. For most of us who don't talk openly of sex so much, it's rather more of a "been there, done that" kind of thing. Sex is like air. It's no big deal unless you're not getting any. If you ask me, talking about sex all the time speaks more of pre-teen immaturity than any kind of sophisticated adult interaction. In my opinion, what seperates humans from animals is our ability to rise above our base instincts for procreation. Not to dismiss them altogether but to recognize their place without placing our entire focus on them.

I am a very sexual person by nature. Tickling is just one thing that I find to be a sexual act given the right circumstances. Cuddling, kissing, bondage, even just talking on the phone can be sexual for me.

When I am with someone who wants to be tied up and tickled, I am pretty much horny the entire time. Having a sexy, beautiful, ticklish woman, bound and helpless, reacting so deliciously to my touches, is highly arousing. Watching a pair of shapely feet squirm around as I stroke my fingertips along their soles is highly arousing. Rolling the woman over and spanking her, listening to her gasp, moan, and whimper is very arousing as well.

The act of tickling (bondage, other BDSM activities as well), in and of themselves, is very hot to me, when I am with someone I find sexually attractive.

Tickling: Fun vs. Sexual Turnon

I guess I'll add my point of view.

Tickling for me is extremely sexual. Of course, the act of tickling a woman's ribs is not a sexual act, but my response to that is definitely an erection. My mind perceives the sight of a woman being tickled either tied or just a playful tickle fight as one of the sexiest things imaginable. That's how my mind works. I don't know why. I just accept it for what it is. Yeah, I have felt very weird over the years for getting aroused over this. I participate on this forum as an outlet for sharing my intense feelings about tickling as a sexual fetish, and I certainly, as an adult, can have non-tickling, non-sexual conversations too. I can do the latter with my vanilla friends though.

I also have a very strong foot fetish. I absolutely love to kiss, nibble, and lick soft arches. Sucking pretty toes is a favorite pastime as well.

I am only speaking for myself here. I accept everyone's point of view about tickling. I also accept everyone's point of view about most things. If I don't agree, it doesn't make their position invalid.

P.S. LindyHopper- I checked out the link over in the images forum and must say, your feet are gorgeous. The rest of you is as well, if I determined which one the ladies was you.

Take care folks and Happy Holidays!

agreed. except for the down on hedonism part. frankly, you have 'adults' who talk about sex all the time rather than getting some. thats describes apparently how theyre not acting like adults but instead like adolescent kids. and quite frankly, they may as well be the 40 year old virgin. thats just sad.
