Do You Consider Yourself A Sadistic Tickler?

[Jamesplaining]

I do.

Why? Because that’s one of the declinations of my kink. I also have a thing for tears, and I appreciate when the ticklee is taken to the brink of desperation and starts sobbing and crying.

Is it my only way to express my tickling fetish? Of course not. I also appreciate playful stuff. It depends on the context and on the person I’m playing with.

short answer...yes

Seems so. Her utter suffering through tickling contributes to my overbearing enjoyment. I'll tickle her until there's no more left of her than a giggling mess begging me to stop, and then I'll tickle some more. That goes double if she's immobilized somehow, unable to defend herself for ticklish scratches and pokes.
Does it always have to be like that? Nope. But it is a preferred outcome.

I'm not sadistic unless the lee is egging me on. I've attempted version of tickle torture (I consider it sadistic in nature) with a few masochists, and that's how I confirmed that it isn't for me. Well, unless the lee is turned on by it and craves it. Though, I prefer sensual/playful play if given the option.

Though, I will stop if I detect the lee is not getting enough oxygen or if they show signs of pain.

It's an interesting question to contemplate. Tickling absolutely activates my sadistic side. What I love about tickling is how unbearable it is, the panic and desperation. I find it very erotic when someone can't stand being tickled or even "hates" it.

That said, I don't genuinely want someone to cry (other than laughter from tears) or be traumatized, so there's some recognition of the difference between fantasy and reality.

Of course I had to see this post when I'm DEEEP in tickle crave. Holy moly.

Sadistic seems to imply cruelty and I don't think I'm cruel about it. I want her to enjoy it as much as I do. I'd say I'm intense. I like to keep her right on the edge of too much. Cuz if she uses her safe word, I have to stop. And stopping is no fun. I love that panicky state that morphs into acceptance. 😀😀

I don't, mainly because the idea of crossing someone's limits/boundaries - even if and when that's their express desire - terrifies me.

Having had my consent violated by an ex, I'm super aware of how much it sucks to feel like you've been taken advantage of, and I don't want to inflict that on someone else. I would much rather go playful or sensual, even in bondage, because then I feel like I'm doing the tickling with...acceptable intentions?

Like, to me the point of tickling is to Feel Good, and while I do understand that some people are masochists and/or are drawn to Being Uncomfortable, I can't wrap my brain around it, so I find it hard to treat someone in a way that would intentionally be miserable.
