Christians with a tickle fetish...

[Tickler15]

Just remember my friends, God loves and forgive all! Just as long as you aren't using your fetish in evil ways you will be ok!

I know this is a really old thread, but I am right there with you brother. I have had both a foot and tickling fetish since I can remember as well. I'm married to a wonderfully indulgent woman (maybe not as often with the tickling as I would like, but I get to tickle her feet in short bursts every now and again.) Even so, I struggle with avoiding the temptation to watch and pleasure myself to feet tickling pornography. I don't think I will ever feel differently about feet and tickling, but have been more motivated to war against the lustful temptations. Paul had a "thorn in the flesh" that God refused to remove. I feel as if this is something similar. I may never be rid of it, but if I will trust in Him, He is faithful to continue the good work He started within me. I would ask of your prayers to stay faithful, especially in these times. You have my prayers as well.

I struggle with this same thing everyday and it gets me thinking a lot

In my years of tickling guys, some have been currently practicing Christians, some have been formerly practicing. Just as long as we both have fun and it's mutually consensual, that's fine by me. One even let me do a ritualistic foot washing, which was really nice. Would enjoy doing that again.

I've always found great spiritual comfort in the King James Version (only) of Second Kings, 18:27.

I'm not Christian, but being raised Methodist, I never got the impression that Christianity was against having kinks. I know certain interpretations of Christianity believe sex should be saved for marriage, so I guess that might make things difficult for someone with a strong tickling or foot fetish, but plenty of other interpretations don't suggest that.

Sex is between two bonded partners. If there's consent, within marriage you can enjoy a tickling kink. Might talk about it anonymously online outside of your congregation with the consent of the wife. This can be a channel about this. Perhaps there are like-minded fellow Christians here.

Being 'bonded' is vital so the 'ler doesn't get kicked. Praise be! 😀

The interpretation is free. 😉

I don't think there's anything wrong with it. Damn, we can't even help it! I've had a tickle fetish roughly since birth. I remember having no shame about tickling someone when I was a kid. As I got older, I realized that my desire for tickling was more than I understood. The only time I felt bad about it is when I tickled someone in a relationship and they, more or less, shut it down. That part is disappointing.

Whoops reviving a bit of a dead thread here. Just wanting to vent a little. But I think about this sometimes. I have been a Catholic all my life, and though I am far from where I want to be, I never really explicitly stopped believing. For years of my life I never really considered this anything bad. Just maybe a bit weird, perhaps! And I figured I’d just have to find somebody to spend my life with who would indulge me in these things. However, as I wanted to grow more in various areas (most especially confidence and difficulties with social interactions), I started to dig into my past and why I am the way I am. At some point, I found in myself a tinge of a desire to see other people suffer. Not really in any big way, but in the small things. Like running over people in GTA V, I get this little bit of satisfaction. Or when I think myself or another wronged, to see the other person hurt in return brings this little bit of satisfaction. Things that might be considered small, but things I don’t really want in my heart (I am called to love as best I can!). And in considering these things, I realized tickling, for me, is one of those things. I wished that it wasn’t, but if I am being honest with myself, it is. I’m sure there’s many reasons people will enjoy it, but I know for myself, I have found this tinge of excitement over the helplessness and humiliation of another. And digging even deeper, I realized this fetish comes from childhood trauma, where I realize there is still a lot of resentment towards the perpetrator. And the few times I have been given the opportunity to indulge with somebody in real life, I believe I ended up using them in the process.

Anyway, perhaps one day I will be able to tickle some of my fellow humans with a deeper love in my heart than I have been able to up to this point! : )

My relationship between my faith and my fetish is something I'm still struggling with. I have come to believe that while Bondage and Domination (at least playful domination) is most likely acceptable in the eyes of God, assuming it is between married spouses, Sadism and Masochism is not. The desire to actually harm someone who is made in the image of God is wrong as doing so denies the very image of God in which they were made.

Tying someone, tickling someone, even roleplaying a torture or domination scenario is probably okay, but there are lines beyond which we have not been given the authority to cross.

I have also come to believe, pulling mostly from the 'Song of Solomon' that the main purpose of sex is to focus your attention on the desires of the other person. That is why I really want to be with someone who wants to be tickled as much as I want to tickle them. I don't want it ever to just be something that they bear for me. That may mean that I wait even longer to meet someone, or even that I never find someone who I will tickle, but I think that's my understanding of this whole relationship we Christians have to walk.

I think fetishes can be an even more significant thing for Catholics since it is sexual without being procreative, which is more restrictive for us than it is for protestants.

I'm Christian, but my interpretation of it doesn't conflict with having a kink or sexual activity before marriage. Adultery is generally understood to mean sexual activity outside of a marriage, but that only applies if at least one of the people involved is, in fact, married. Activity between unmarried adults isn't sinful by a lot of interpretations, as long as a few other criteria are met. Obviously, consent has to be involved, for example. Most interpretations of Christianity view incest as sinful as well, like my own. And then there are certain other criteria involving orientation that I'm not going to get into, since I know that's a controversial topic.

 

[duderino84]

I'm confirmed Roman Catholic. But I've been agnostic for years.

I feel like I lost faith partly because of this.

Our society emphasizes "GET THE WOMAN".

"How?"

"SWEEP HER OFF HER FEET".

"Then what?"

"DO WHAT YOU PLEASE WHEN THE TIME SEEMS RIGHT."

meets someone who talks

"Well shit, it's gotta be soon, right? I mean, it's getting hot in here".

So you tickle and it surprises people in the wrong way.

The more it happens, the more "GOD" disappears because the other bone heads pull the same manner of manly shit and get a pass on the dating market in general. Tickling Fetish is a hard lifestyle if you aren't... socially nimble.

So yea, I think there's a lot behind this that religion doesn't mean shit in regards to tickling.

That's where the nuns tortured me!!'

I'm sorry to hear that your father-in-law went through that. All Christian's have a duty to see all people as nothing less than children of God. (something many Christians still haven't taken to heart).

I hope that your outlook continues to lead you to all the happiness it has led you to so far.

In terms of following rules that seem pointless, I'm reminded of a saying I've heard before: "His ways are not our ways. Playing against God is like playing against the judge, and a wise man doesn't bet against him, because in the heaven, the house always wins"

"DO WHAT YOU PLEASE WHEN THE TIME SEEMS RIGHT."

I mean I don't want to sound judgy, maybe that it's just in the phrasing, but that sounds a little assault sounding, my guy. Whether you are a Christian or not, all touching must be consensual. Girls who "Don't like being tickled" shouldn't have to put up with it for the sake of someone else. If you are suggesting that a Christian priest, minister or other faith leader told you it was okay to just start touching a woman without asking her, that is not biblical and... also not the general advice they usually give. I know there are some 'interesting' denominations in the USA.

Also, I don't want to assume but if you've misread the signals a 'couple dozen times' there might be some other problems going on there.

The bible says it's good to want a spouse but it isn't something that we are owed. Faith is not transactional and if you follow him only for the rewards you think you deserve from him you are heading down a very disappointing, self-destructive path.

It's not really about doing what he wants because He'll give us something, it's about doing what He wants because we love and trust Him.

I'm not always good at following it, for goodness sake we're discussing this on a fetish forum, but I think I'm trying.
Either way, always remember that consent needs to be both explicit and enthusiastic.

I just deleted a lot of off topic posts. This strikes me as a very interesting topic that is probably relevant to a lot of people with a tickling fetish.

It's not an open invitation for people to air their grievances about different aspects of religion.

If you're not interested in engaging with this topic, stop reading the thread. And if you have something to get off your chest about religion, Click Here

I hate having to put on my moderator hat like this but it comes with the job so here we go - I'll be watching this thread from now on, and banning people who refuse to play nice.

Many years ago, I had a tickling friend who was a devoted Jehovah's Witness. Our tickling sessions were completely platonic. Tank tops and shorts, no kissing, no inappropriate touching. The tickling was great fun with her. We never really talked too deeply about her religion. I kinda got the sense that aside from loving tickling sessions, tickling was also a way for her to have physical intimacy without technically breaking any rules. So those two aspects of her life could peacefully coexist.

 

[solarcharger]

I’ve struggled a bit with this, too. But, in the end, GOD made me just as I am, and so, he must’ve put the desire to tickle the feet of women into me. So he KNOWS how I am. It’s a weakness, and yet, it isn’t. But I’m certain that he is understanding.
