When did you discover that you aren't alone in your tickle fetish?

[jocksocks]

When I was in my mid-teens, I lived in a home that had an office with a computer. One afternoon while on the internet, I typed in the word "tickling." When the search results were presented, I immediately felt an erotic "awakening." I was astounded that there were websites on the internet that were dedicated entirely to the act of tickling. The first website that I opened contained the artwork of an artist by the name of Maxwolf. His drawings were of anthropomorphic characters engaging in bondage and tickling scenarios. During dinner that night ( I still remember what I ate- chicken alfredo) all I could think about was what I discovered on the internet.

Does anyone else care to share their "awakening" experience?

High School (God Bless the Internet) when I saw sites like ANA Tickling, SW Tickle, the user group sites, etc I knew I wasn't flying solo

I wanna say about 13 or so, found an old Penthouse Forum under my parents bed. I wanna say it was an '87 issue. It had two big articles in it on the cover, labeled, "The belt and the feather." It had two major subjects: spanking and tickling. In it there was an article called, "The T-spot." It described how some people where into tickling with sex. It had stories, pictures, testimonies and a description with the word 'fetish' in it. Now, they described it as like an experimental thing and that certain people were into it, but that is when I least like I wasn't truly alone. Still happy I found it, still weirded out by where and with what I found it with.

At age 25 - 26. No mind you I wasn't a virgin I am married got kids still didn't know everything about myself. I messed around and found a fetish story that mentioned tickling. Was so intrigued that I googled erotic tickling and ran into good old www.adultsexygames.com . That was good day.

When I got my first personal computer. One of the first things I did was google tickling (mind you, I wasn't sure why I liked it so much at this point) discovered that there was whole world out there of tickling and after a few months of derping around online I realized that my love of tickling was indeed a fetish. It was nice being able to figure this out while knowing that there was an entire community of people who love it as much, if not more, than I do.

 

[TicklexoxFreaK]

My story is practically the same as everyone elses haha. I've always liked tickling but i've gotten more into it as I got older and I ended up googling the word tickling in the search engine and in images and a crap load of pictures and videos came up. I felt better knowing I wasn't the only girl into this sorta thing. I'm no saint when it comes to my sex life or whatever but I didn't expect tickling to be popular. I'm glad others enjoy it as much as I do.

When found theses two sites in high school: SWTickle and RopeJock. I don't think I found the TMF until college.

The sort of quasi-logical eroticism of tickling seemed as natural to me as any other human feeling. It took some observation to realize that my fetish wasn't shared by everyone else.

Thanks guys, you're the best.

Tickling as a thing to do to a girl happened for me around 7, but the sexual aspect of it not until around 13. Tickling really became an interest after I saw the 2 Popeye cartoon's when Olive got it on the bridge and the haunted ship. Wasn't long after that that I tried to see if you really could make a person go nuts just by playing with their feet. 😉

The internet has really made a difference,.... Imagine getting past this particular milestone in, say, 1963. I simply encountered the word "fetish" used in context in a novel,.... looked it up,... one thing led to another,... and voila. And I have to be honest, here,....... I think that was probably a lot more exciting and more fun than just "googling." Sorry.

 

[BMoreTklr]

Whoa, I can't imagine what things would have been like in 63'. Maybe a lot more fun, I say just a little more leg work. It's funny though, as I was thinking while I did use the internet, Google was still a good 7 years away from existing. Yahoo, Lycos, and Alta-Vista were the search engine kings (and then AOL came along), the economy was great (so I'm told), the Orioles made the playoffs (PLAYOFFS?!!), and Keith Olberman was doing countdown's but on ESPN instead of wherever the hell he does them now.

Man I learned when I was like, 9 lol. I remember (just like everyone else!) googleing "ticke girls" (I only liked tickling girls then I guess lol) and having my mind blown.

Too young man, I should have waited. Corrupted at such a young age XD

I'm embarrassed to say.. not until I started writing to my pen pal who I've mentioned on here before, in 1997, when I was 27. Even then, I thought he and I were rarities. When I REALLY discovered I wasnt alone in my tickle fetish, was in 2002, when I joined this site, with THOUSANDS of tickle fetishists like myself, even though the members like me who have been here for many years, know that the site was maybe 20% of the size it is now. 15,000-20,000 members is STILL a lot of people to enjoy tickling.

When I was far too young to be looking up such internet garbage (14?), I stumbled upon Jack's Male Tickling Rack. For those of you not in the know, Jack's Rack was an entirely m/m site. My first leap into the world of tickling fetishism, and I thought I was the only girl in existence. It wasn't until probably a year later that I found swtickle.com. That had girls as lees, but it was all stories, so I didn't think much of it.

Shortly thereafter I found the TMF and I was like...wait just a second. There are GIRLS here?? And more than that..there are guys here who don't just want to tickle each other?? I was half thrilled and half furious that I had gone so long thinking I was the lone girl in a guys' world - guys who really wanted nothing to do with anyone but each other.

I didn't join for another couple years, but I did chat with some of you fine people. That's right. A few of you knew me when I was jailbait.

 

[TickleCuties]

When I found FM Concepts, Solefully Yours, Rock-man.com, Harmony - the original foot fetish & tickle sites online - was playing on the internet and did a search...opened up my eyes that there was a rather large community of people interested in the same naughty things as I am. 😉

I'd been vaguely aware of my substantial interest in tickling for a long time, but the extent, or the fact that it was shared by others, didn't hit home til my senior year in high school. Despite my enthusiasm for the school's anime club, two girls from the club and I ended up spending most of the year's meetings in an adjacent classroom. When they weren't holding me down and tickling the living hell out of me, one of them was teaming up with me to pay back the other. That was a good year. :3

 

[powerslideX]

Well, Im not that old but im not sure google existed or was the popular search engine at the time. Anyhow i was in middle school i guess. Went to goto.com and searched tickling or something of that nature and BAM, there it was... well more like 'tickling'
(search).....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................BAM! cause we had shitty dial up. I was into tickling before that, but didn't know what exactly to think of it. I know when i would rarely see it on tv, I would feel all embarrassed, and try extra hard to act like it didn't mean anything special.

 

[Candis20]

When I found this site. o.o

 

[Insidious]

Not sure. From the time I was 16 until I was 20 I used to tickle my very hot female cousin about 4 times a month but I know she wasn't a fetishist.
She was the cause of the most embarrassing tickling moment of my life!

.....Huh, now I am kinda glad I didn't get internet till I was like 13, and that was just on MACs. I didn't get google till i was 16...Fuckballs am I old.

I still love that story! LOL

When I was actually in my Teenage years, since my parents didn't get mine and there actual first real computer until I was like a sophomore in high school so I was a late bloomer, but like most here I would be hazard to guess it was via the good internet and type in key words into google or yahoo like ''Tickling" etc. And that's then how I knew that I wasn't alone. And from there I dipped my toe into tickling more inch by inch. I have yet to really fully experience the some of the wild and down right tickling experience that some of you guys on here have got to experience or experience on a daily basis with the more torture aspect of it (ropes, tieing up a girl etc.) But I still hope to one day But it's still been great. Long live laughter! never take it for granted.

I found out I wasn't alone before I knew the internet existed. I took my wife and kids to a Disney on Ice show at Madison Square Garden around 1989 or so. They went to the show while I hung around the city until they came out. I had a couple of hours to kill so I went to Times Square to look for some bondage magazines. Lo and behold, there was a magazine called Tied and Tickled sitting right there in the rack in front of me. That was the point that I thought I wasn't alone. How could a company put out a mag like that and Not have some sort of following? I purchased the magazine and saw all the pics and stories in it and knew I had company.

End of around 96, when I first got the internet, I would have been 20, Ticklegal's website, Josie's too, clips taking ages to download, the stories (Captive Babysitter!)

Going to munches, meeting people to chat to.

Now, at 35 feel comfortable with this & a lot more open to explore!
