Why i like tickling better than the "norm".

[wishfoot88]

hi
when i 1st came out about my fetish i got asked a very simple yet impossible question. "why?"
it got me to thinking, why i got this fetish and why i don't like the more mainstream stuff.
for one thing, tickling is innocent. as in, no one is hurt, it is a positive act and generally makes people feel good.
whereas, with the more mainstream things are more...sexist.
people where i live are into 2 things;
tits
ass
and the "downstairs"
i have nothing against people who have this interest. i just think that these people look at a woman as simply, tits, ass, "downstairs". no-one likes the overweight women. they seem to like someone who looks nice but is a real bitch rather than someone who is not the most beautiful person, but is a simply great person.

i did/do not want to be one of these people. that is not to say that i only like tickling because of this, its just that these are some of the reasons. as well as the usual "it feels good" etc.

i just wanted to say this as i can't really talk to anyone without them getting weirded out or making fun, my mates are ignorant assholes most of the time.

but, do any of these count with you?
why do you like tickling?
or
what aspects of tickling interest you the most?

Interesting thoughts... but I don't believe for a second that a tickling fetish is somehow more or less sexist, or more or less shallow, than normal sexuality.

Sure, we place less emphasis on tits and ass (somtimes) but we place value on equally superficial things: ticklishness, feet, etc.

It's just as easy to objectify women in the context of a tickling fetish than anything else. In fact, some of like that aspect specifically (ahem).

My point is this: having a tickling fetish doesn't make us less shallow or less sexist than anyone else. Don't mistake the fact that we don't obsess over T&A as somehow elevated. We get off on what we get off on, there's no value judgement to be had.

I think I understand. I've often though if a women walked into a room butt-naked, the only part of her body I would notice would be her feet and the rest would be a blur.
Do you feel tickling makes you more appreciative of the women as a whole and not just specific sexual body parts, such as T&A or do other non-sexual parts replace the ones most people admire ? Or do you feel tickling is just not as hardcore as sex ?
