I find verbal teasing to be delicious
i think the verbal teasing / psychological aspect of tickling is prob 40% of the level of ticklishness you can create! The college gf was 6'3" tall (I was 5'5") so there was already the psychology of the book wormish quiet guy 'terrorizing the taller GF" with WORDS and deeds scenario....hee hee
I have talked to one woman who session-ed with an experienced LER who was quiet the whole time. I remarked about that and she asked how "I would have done it". and I proceeded to give her a description with all the verbal interactions that her LER. " left on the table"....and she responded with something like "wow, I feel cheated...I am feeling cringy and ticklish just hearing that stuff".... It proves the power of language and that at least with tickling, a large degree of the experience is in the verbal teasing between the LER and LEE....
The 'games' we can play....the innocent game...( what, this is tickling? or 'You're so squirmy...what's the problem?" ) of course MAKING them tell adds yet another level of ticklishness ...
the talking around them game...like they aren't even there.....THATS particularly devastating as at some point, as other experts have pointed out...The Lee may NEED to communicate their extreme state of ticklishness and If you it seems you really DON'T realize their level of 'distress' .... well ...that's a frantic feeling for the poor little Lee!
Again, just describing the appearance of their helplessness (IE 'you're not going anywhere...' or "who's got you now?" )
Telling what youre going to do before you do it...( or like my idea of saying I just gonna be 'searching for tools' )..
.
All we are doing is 'tickling their minds' IE tickling them from the inside out as opposed to the outside in.....
IMHO, thats why the tickling fixation is so enjoyable....It is a great interplay between two people (LER and LEE ) and again, IMO, to be done properly and thoroughly, you must engage your partner's or Lee's mind as much as their body!
