This is mainly just me musing over some stuff that popped into my head while I was replying to the thread about trying something different, so bear with me if I get a bit philosophical. Really, what I'm trying to find out is what you get out of your tickling fetish, what your preferences are, and how it reflects upon your personality or what parrallels you draw between what you like tickling-wise and who you are out in the "real" world.
Myself, I'm a walking mass of complexes. With regards to my tickle fetish there's just so much of it that I enjoy that it's hard to know where to start; I'm deeply into feet and I am most definitely a 'ler, and a pretty dominant one at that. I can't draw so my artistic outlet for my fetish is through writing, and most of the stories I write are based around merciless, unrelenting tickling as torture most usually performed on victims in mega-heavy bondage against their will, and commonly captives of some nefariously evil, insanely powerful being/ entity that they have no chance of escaping or forced into giving themselves up to a sleazebag who has the dirt on them. Sometimes there's a point to it, for instance the captive might be holding some vital information that their tormentor needs, but more often than not it's just tickling for the sake of gaining a reaction, tormenting the victim purely because they can and they know the it's driving the victim nuts (in fact, looking back at the stuff I've written, I tend to find that even in the case of stories where the victim is being interrogated I tend to continue the thread of them being tickled even after they've given up the goods). My descriptions also tend to be quite sensuous and sexually charged without actually being directly explicit (for instance, I've never had a character so much as topless in any of my stories). I like the control side of it, I like situations in which the victim has no power whatsoever and is being tormented with absolute impunity by the 'ler with no fear of any comeback whatsoever, be it from the 'lee or any other third party, and I like my 'lees' situations to be utterly hopeless and they themselves to be of the mind that no matter how much they're subjected to it it'll never become pleasant for them. In short, I'm a megalomaniacal sadistic tickler with a rampaging dom streak, and I also enjoy other fetishes involving people either dominating my partner and/or drawing a reaction from them, like spanking or shocking, preferably with some resistance from the sub.
However, as much as I like these kinds of scenarios, there's also a compunction in me to see justice done. This doesn't tend to come out in the stuff I write, but in real life scenarios my most perfect session of tickling would involve me tying up my 'lee as tight as I could and tickling her until she despises me and all that I stand for and is so desperate to have me stop that she'll agree to anything. Then, once she's ready to rip out my brain through my nose with rusty hooks, I'd let her turn the tables on me and indulge herself with me (within reason; I tend to find that I'm allergic to having my brain removed through my nose), thereby completing the cycle of reward and punishment; though if she didn't feel like doing that I wouldn't say no to simply picking up where we left off. I also like the idea of making sex part of the play, although in yet another twist to my complex mass of complex masses I don't think I'm a particularly sexual tickler, at least not when I'm being Mister Evil Tickletorture Man, even though stuff such as the above does thrill me. However, in yet ANOTHER complex twist to my twisting mass of complexes, I find that when it comes to actual sex with a partner who is vanilla or otherwise un-kinky I can still get turned on by the usual vanilla stuff, although I don't tend to enjoy it so much as I would if she were a sub or a 'lee and the prospect of tickling was at least on the cards. As far as partners go, I prefer women who are strong, intelligent personalities with a submissive streak rather than out-and-out submissives, although again that's not to say that submissive women are a turn-off. I also tend to like the idea of (for want of a less pompous sounding phrase) reciprocal consensual non-consensuality; that is, women who'd be just as willing to find themselves suddenly subjected to an unwanted session of tickling as they would be to subject me to the same. However, all that said, I could actually see myself being happy with a woman who didn't particularly enjoy the whole torturous tickling thing, and I'd be more than willing to tone down my fetish to accomodate her, because I find that I enjoy the more intimate, tender tickling (that is, tickling to give your partner pleasure rather than to antagonise them) just as much as I enjoy tickle torture, although I think feet are the really big thing for me so I don't think I could be happy with a woman who was dead-set against me playing with her feet, at least from time to time.
So yeah. There's more to it than that, but I'm still wrestling with it in my head so even attempting to get it down into a post would result in it coming out all mashed and mangled, and there's enough twists and turns within that little lot than there were in The Usual Suspects. In short, my answer to the question "What do you want out of your fetish?" would have to be "I'm not really sure.... but I'm enjoying finding out".
Your turn 😀
