Before we start I’d like to say I’ve got nothing against poets (I just think they’re a bit girly). Everybody here understands the link between power and tickling. Just take a look at these classic scenarios, teacher tickles unruly pupil, mistress tickles lazy maid, naughty nurse tickles unlucky patient. Before any of you run off to find pictures, stick with me I do have a point. Everybody enjoys being tickled under the right circumstances and this has a great deal to do with power.
First we must look at the “Yuck!” phenomenon. We’ve all been in the situation where somebody tickles us and we go “Yuck!” it just feels weird and creepy. For me it’s usually when another man tries to tickle me. On the other hand there are times when I don’t mind or even do it back. If I’m having a laugh at work and one of my bosses’ clamps a hand round my knee I’ll give him a friendly jab in the arm. But if one of the office hangers-on tried the same I’d shove away his hand and ask him what the hell he was doing! What’s the Difference… Social Value!!!
Now for the science bit. Charles Darwin always believed tickling was a way of humans asserting dominance in a group. In other words people could work out where they stood without getting their heads bashed in. If the dominant male decided it was your day to be tickled you had to submit and spell it out LOUD and CLEAR! Failure to do so could mean a rock around the head. Good tickle stories always try to introduce an element of danger and anticipation maybe this is where it comes from? This is why women don’t laugh so much when tickled by an average Joe. But if confronted by the right person we’ll go wild trying to show our compliance. We’ve all seen it happen.
Back to today and not much has changed. Sometimes we get that “Yuck!” feeling and other times we get the “Oh Shit!” feeling. But how do we cut out the Yuck! and get more Shit? Easy, you’ve got to be a big, bad Alfa male. Rock stars are just one example of modern Alfa’s. Women feel comfortable around them and they have tons of social value which is very important.
The reason tickling is so popular is because sometimes women enjoy the idea of submitting to those big Alfa males they see worthy. Think about Bruce Willis and Colin Farrell for example. On the other hand men love the idea of being the big Alfa male tickling his harem of females, it’s just natural (but that’s different post).
Tickling is tickling and I know there are many other factors to consider, but I think this covers two of the main ones, sexuality and comfort. So next time you’re sliding the socks away from that naughty schoolgirl or you find yourself looking up at a Police Officer twizzling a tickly, tickly feather ask yourself… “Who’s Alfa here?”
