Tickling in ler mode i would use a blindfold on the lee in order to tease and suprise.
The element of suprise, the lee not knowing exactly where the next tickle is going to come from.
Also if a person is cuffed in say a lounge, and blindfolded and escourted into a bedroom, and then on removal of the blindfold sees about ten tons of feathers, the shock and suprise will all take effect, and add to the pleasure.
In the bdsm world blindfolds are a frequent instrument, along with all the other fetish items, some lees/subs like to be blindfolded its all part of the control/sub situation.
Sex is often open to forms of fetish "i will only let him if he promises to wear his firefighters uniform" type syndrome (like guys love maids and nurses outfits, i dont but some do) and blindfolds can come into this type of thing along with all the other trapings.
If you want the ultimate sensual sexual thrill then become helpless and have a blindfold on and enjoy a very gentle loving massage, caress, tickle methods with a feathered instrument, very soft and gentle, then reverse roles.
I have tried this and been on both the recieving end and the instigation end and found it fantastic trust me.(not while i have these feathers and blindfolds)
So yes i do use them in the above ways but its not essential its just open to choice.
Its a good thread and question and may have been raised in the past but i have not seen it in the achives, i hope you get lots of replies.
