tickling and incontinence

[Grolsch]

Hi all.

Has anybody known a person, male or female, young or old, whatever, that seemed unusually susceptible to becoming incontinent if tickled? I mean, assuming they were healthy with no pre-existing incontinence issues.

I ask because I happened to be talking to an old friend of mine the other day. We were camp counselors and one of the female camp counselors was quite ticklish, and if anybody tickled her she would run screaming "don't tickle me, I'll pee in my pants". She said it like she really meant it. Yet, I've known other people, male and female, that seemed equally ticklish but never were concerned about losing bladder control.

Just a thought.

Did you TEST this theory on her?

No, I think she screamed and fought so hard mostly people only tickled her for a second or so. She was really serious about it.

I do remember one of the kids at the camp, a girl, had lots of people tickling here and when she started yelling that she had to pee the counselors broke it up. She ran off to one of the building with a bathroom kind of cross-legged.
