Vintage tickling
Ok...I'm probably an old timer (45) compared to the age ranges I've seen in this forum. I've always been interested in tickling... for as long as I can remember. Truthfully, I enjoy tickling in a lot of different ways. I playfully tickle...I sadistically tickle...I use it as foreplay...as punishment...as torture...but mostly to enjoy the reactions of the ticklees and experience the pleasure I receive as the guy doing the tickling.
I tickle as often as I can...almost daily! I have many female friends who enjoy tickling in a lot of different ways. Often, I find a really terrific woman who actually enjoys tickling or is not afraid to experience it for the first time. I then spend a great deal of time experimenting with different levels of tickling, ultimately pleasuring her like she's never been pleasured before. I've even turned the fearful, weak hearted ticklee into a lover of the sport. It's easier than it seems most people think. Just go for it!!
I think my first media find happened at about age 13, in the early seventies. I found (artickles) describing M/F tickling in the smut magazines of the time: Gallery, Gentry, Penthouse, Playboy, Hustler and a few others. Very few pictures or films were available it seemed.
During the later seventies...now in my early 20's, I began finding adult books like Playboy Forum and Penthouse Variations to be a great source of M/F tickle related material...mostly stories, some suggestive photographs and illustrations. These would give me hours of pleasure but also it let me know that I was not alone in my predilliction for tickling. They were also a source of new and different tickling techniques! Bondage scenarios, instuments of tickle torture, and areas of the female body that would elicit the most responses from different types of tickling prevailed. I learned a great deal from these primers.
My first real find was during a trip to New York City in the early eightees. I was near Time Square around 42nd Street and took a tour of several "Dirty Book Stores". As I toured the magazine racks, I found the usual "Big-uns," "She-Male," "Fetish," "Gay," and hardcore "S&M" offerings...but I was delighted to see "Tickling" as a topic all by itself with 4 or 5 magazines. These mostly had photographs of young F/F tickling in different scenarios. There were very few M/F offerings but it was ALL tickling ...and so I bought them all.
I also remember being very embarassed when I went to pay one bookstore clerk. He kindof made me feel a little uneasy, making some kind of sarcastic comments about me being a "tickle freak." He continued to ridicule me and attempted to make me feel less masculine by some of his other comments. I think I said.."Too each his own" or "Don't knock it until you've tried it"! I was not too offended and blew off the whole thing believing I had found what I thought was the Mother Load of tickling media.
I was able to collect a good stash of this vintage material and still keep it in my archives. BTW a lot of the photos and stories from those mags appear on the net today! All that material assisted me in getting over the "Tickle Freak" stigma and only reassured me that I was part of a much larger group of folks who were turned on by tickling. Afterall they would'nt market the material that did'nt sell...Right? It was also during this time that there were several video offerings... The Tied and Tickled videos that you could watch in "The Booth." I can remember my first video like it was yesterday!
Anywaze...since the advent of internet, there has been a greater opportunity to realize that there are tens of thousands of US in the world...and that it's ok to enjoy tickling helpless women. My favorite, M/F tickling media has been VERY available and continues to be a great source of pleasure to me and my ticklee friends (victims). It also provides me the opportunity to convey my views in forums like this.
Hope this sheds some light on this old guys experience!
Enjoy...and GO FOR IT!!
