So apparently, we all have a disorder...

So we're about the same as 85% of the rest of the human population then. IE, fucked up in some way.
 
It's funny; I don't read anything negative or disorder-like in this blurb.
 
A disorder? Really?

Other people may like to call our fetish a disorder, but i don't think of it as such. It is just a part of my identity and i would not want to change it.
 
LOL! I can live with that 😀 it's way more fun to be different..
 
Let me get my T-Shirt that I just had made....it says "Weird and proud of it" 🙂

If I could jettison my interest in tickling, I would in a heartbeat.

So...some of us have brain injury, some of us are schizophrenic, and some of us are just plain crazy. But have no fear! We can apparently cure ourselves of our wicked, crazy ways with a healthy dose of psychotherapy, social skills training (because we're all severely lacking in that area), and ...... medroxyprogesterone acetate (whatever the fuck that is).

Yay.

Recently I'd have seconded that sentiment, but these days... I'm not so sure. The more I understand my interest in tickling and its psychological roots, the more I like it.

Though, having a fetish still interferes with casual sex, which is still a pain.
 
"Tickling is all about control issues. Ticklers love the feelings of control when tickling someone to distraction and the ticklees love giving up all control to the helpless uncontrollable laughter racing through their bodies. Initial tickling is erotic and playful, but continued tickling loses these features. Tickling involves submission, often the victim submits willingly at first and may even encourage the tickling. However, after the tickling begins a victim is helpless with uncontrollable laughter. Frantic struggles ensue to escape the tickling. The humiliation of not being able to stop laughing or avoid the treatment is intense. The ticklees often thrash around in wild ticklish abandon and often the ticklers are laughing as much as the ticklee! Tickling breaks through the touch barrier."

And this is a bad thing????:veryhappy

I understand where you are coming from.It's fun but not essential too my happiness in life.I would still visit the TMF and keep in touch with my friends here.I guess when we get down to brass tacks i don't have a tickling fetish.

The older i get,the more i can take it or leave it.:shrug:
 
It's not a disorder! What we have is perfectly normal human behavior. A tickle fetishist's brain is simply associating the act of tickling with sexual pleasure and/or gratification. There's nothing wrong with that.

I just scanned both your links......I'd just love some of the foot people here to take a gander. They need to know just how "sick" they are!:cynical::shock::flatstare::sarcasm:

This article defines fetishism and talks about what typically is involved physically & mentally about being a tickler and ticklee.

It also proves that tickling is part of sexual and erotic activities in the vanilla world.


If anything, it might infer we have control issues.

I can live with that.... :hello:
 
i wouldn't say these definitions are true, but definitely in the term for Phsyciatrists. it's science's definition. i've seen many definitions and theories, but this one seems "off" and rather offensive.
 
I don't argue with the description (about taking control for the ler and giving up control for the lee) but I don't call it a disorder. 😀
 
I think most of our anxieties about it have more to do with how society views it than anything else. I guarantee that many people you know in the outside world have tastes that are out of the "norm." It's just that no one talks about it.
