where does tickling come from?

Where does the desire to tickle come from?

Is it genetic or based on childhood/adolescent or adult experiences?

Is it sexual? if not why is there no/very little samesex heterosexual tickling?

Why is bondage and tickling together popular?

what is the history of tickling?

I've got so many unanswered questions, can anyone help?

No but in all seriousness

I'd imagine this one is because people who are tickled tend to flail and thrash about. As for the other ones, I have no clue.

I heard it came from a small village in Tibet some time ago involving yaks and other farm animals; but I could be mistaken …

Well I can answer two of your questions at least. I read after I googled that tickling comes from back in the cave people times. It said that it was the earliest way in history to let someone know that you like them. Tickling can be sexual and used before or during sex but it doens't have to be. Tickling can be platonic.

That is a nice story...but I highly doubt it is true! I have never heard of cave-tickle-drawings, and that together with stuff found in graves is basically the only possibility to determine how cave-people behaved back then!

Well I am sure there haven't been any cave-tickle-drawings but since they really couldn't talk very well they might tickle someone they liked. So, instead of them saying they liked someone, they would show them.

You know, I don't think people in those early times were flirting like we are today! 🙂 It would probably be more accurate to believe that the guys knocked the woman they "liked" out with a stick and dragged her into their cave! 🙂

I really seriously doubt they tickled each other! 🙂
