[SadCuzNotTcklsh]

Any ideas? Think tickling might be up there?
I wanna see some numbers

Survey says.

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/science/heels-are-the-worlds-no-1-fetish-437802.html

Results from the largest global study of sexual kinks ever undertaken show that feet and shoes are by far the biggest turn-ons.

Researchers from the University of Bologna found that, among sexual preferences for body parts, feet and toes were the most popular, with 47 per cent of those sampled preferring them. They also found that, when it came to objects associated with the body, shoes, boots and other footwear scored 64 per cent.

"Feet and objects associated with feet were the most common target of preferences," say researchers.

The survey, based on the views of men and women, also revealed some of the more obscure objects of affection. These included 150 people with a penchant for hearing aids, and two whose hearts go into overdrive thinking about pacemakers.

Some 12 per cent were turned on by underwear, 9 per cent by coats, body fluids and body size, 7 per cent by hair, 5 per cent by muscles, and 4 per cent by genitals and body modifications such as tattooing.

Three per cent cent went for navels, ethnicity and breasts, and 2 per cent for legs, buttocks, mouths, lips and teeth.

The lowest scores went to stethoscopes, wristwatches, bracelets
, nappies and catheters. Body hair, nails, noses, ears, neck and body odour all scored less than 1 per cent.

I would have figured feet as well. i think tickling would be near the bottom.

 

[MrTicklefeet]

From fetish providers and dominatrixes, it seems spanking is the all time favorite activity. When asking about tickling, they always look far and away, and say something like, 'well, there was one guy years ago, but I haven't seen him recently.' I've heard this so much, I'm beginning to wonder if this is the same guy with all these folks.
Us tickling people are clearly in the minority.

Feet would be my guess tooooo, its "gert" common innit.

Unless of course breasts counts as a fetish, and why shouldnt it?

 

[seanwoj]

Bellybuttons/ Navels all the way for me.

 

[drnkntklr]

I would've guessed boobs since every guy gets turned on by them, it seems like. However, since boobs are more mainstream I guess they don't qualify it as a "fetish".

 

[ChicagoDavid]

I bet tickling fetishes are a lot more common that you would think by asking doms. The fact is, the dom bios/websites are very uninviting to people who want to indulge a tickling fetish, so I bet a lot of doms never get asked the question for this reason.

It's more fun in that area. 😉

Not at all surprising.

I would say the foot fetish is the most common. Plenty of people have fetishes for things like leather, pvc, and rubber. I think there are loads of people who like tickling as a fun playful thing but very few actually get turned on by it.

 

[mass1926]

Tickling is definately not in the top 10. I've read may top 10 fetish lists and tickling has never been mentioned. tickling also tends to work alongside other fetishes such as foot, clothing, bondage, ect. Those fetishes are all more popular than tickling.

 

[Fire_Sprite]

Three percent of the population are turned on by breasts?

I have to question that poll's validity.

 

[Maestro1874]

Foot is I do believe.

 

[Skipadeedoodah]

According to fetlife it's bondage. Feet aren't until #62 - although high heels are #25. Of course that's just based on how many people add each fetish on that site. And the population is limited to people who consider themselves kinky enough to have joined an online fetish community.

 

[Coup de Grace]

Top 10 Most Common Fetishes

1. Feet

2. High-heels and knee-high boots

3. Piercing

4. Silk, satin, leather or latex

5. Hands

6. Hair

7. Role playing: doctor, nurse etc.

8. Body parts like flat, tight tummy

9. Balloon

10. Finger-nails art

I knew Feet would be at the top of the list, but a Balloon fetish?!?! What do you do? Stick a big one on your head and suffocate yourself with it? 😛

[solely4u]

i don't know the ranking of tickling, but according to fetlife, 3,858 kinksters list it as their fetish.

 

[maniactickler]

I dont think a Fetlife poll is a fair analysis. they have a BDSM bias, so those fetishes they choose i dont think are a widespread view of the majority of people. theres no way on gods green earth, that theres 61 fetishes that come before feet.

 

[AmandaBear]

Three percent of the population are turned on by breasts?

I have to question that poll's validity.

 

[Sandisk444]

i think it's just breasts alone and nothing else, that would make more sense

* 64. Kissing 17,319 kinksters

that's a fetish?? disgusting... 😛

 

[trace1984]

your suppose to like boobs does that even count as a fetish? lol sometimes i like toes/ but i love to tickle, hehe

 

[-Hari-]

But then again, are you really supposed to like anything in particular?

or is it just what the majority of society tells us we should?

I think boobs can be a fetish as much as feet can.

 

[Mitchell]

Off the top of my head, I would have thought that the two most common fetishes would be feet and breasts. The poll goes to show that one can't assume anything.

You mean breasts and ass by those standards then? Because there is NO way in hell feet are up there with those, which aren't even considered fetishes because they're so common.

I'd think bondage and maybe feet myself, although again, depends on what you consider a fetish.
