I have the friends I need. I don't need advice from you skip.
You should know better then most anyone else as you are considered a veteran, Helena. If you're going to post on public forum, expect public responses. Whether you like them or not. No need to chase other people off because they aren't feeding you the lines that you want to hear.
Unfortunately you choose to initially begin this thread in a directly negative manner. Your complaints (or) "questions" were not directed at a
general group of people. They were specifically directed at a group of perhaps 15-20 in total. With the nuk and 'humping' comments reserved for 5 girls.
Myself included.
So, no. You desired to make a grouping of comments and "questions" like that? Expect some undesired "advice".

I come here for my love of tickling.
That's great. Who are you to say that we don't come here for *our* love of tickling as well? Who are you to make an assumption like that? Why do you think we joined the forum in the first place.
Take solace in the small fact that we all *DO* have at
least one thing in common. Although, from the looks of it, that seems to disgust you because of our other interests. Or even how we choose to interact with each other.

Infantalizing images of adult women is a huge turn off for me. There are sites that cater to that.
Helena, we're not here to turn you on. I'm sorry. But we're not. Remember, some of us are heterosexual women, just like you. We don't have a fetish for infantalizing. We have a fetish for tickling. That's why we're here.
Helena said:
My gripe is that the new trends are watering down what I come here for: the tickling.
Judging from the massive list of threads that Artoo provided a few pages back; I don't see much watering down going on.
Helena said:
I used to feel that the tickling discussion area was my favorite to visit. It seems like the site is incorporating new things in addition to the tickling like sucking on pacifiers, baby talk, pig tails and spanking as requirements for being a desirable lee.
There are requirements for being a desirable lee? I wasn't aware of this. Where are these requirements posted? Who made these requirements?
Clearly a lot of people here seem to be getting confused and need a refresher course on "baby talk".
"Lawlspeak" is not baby talk. Have you ever taken care of or interacted with an infant? And found yourself cooing or proclaiming some line of shit like; I don't know.. "goo" or "ga"?
That is baby talk. And if you look at some of the representations of internet short-hand? It's not even considered lazy speaking all the way around, because some words are longer then their initial spelling.
Everything that you mentioned as per being "requirements" are unjust on all sides of the board.
Helena said:
I look at myself and wonder where that leaves me. Definitely not with the nooks. So, I feel like....who is left that still finds just tickle-loving girls desirable?
Funny.
I went to NEST and didn't sport a nuk. I didn't hump anyone and I never wore pigtails once, and I was (as well as other girls that weren't involved in those "requirements") involved in tickling scenes.
I also played with a few people at NHLee and wasn't sporting any of the aforementioned as well. As well as Cassi and Amanda and Bella.
You could've attempted to justify your actions in the beginning of this thread, but you never did. So, it's hard for me, personally, to sit here and view any of that quoted post as genuine. You slapped at a small group of people and they bit back.
Helena said:
The words "omnonmon", and "humping" and lots of girl to girl love is pretty predominant. I like guys. I'm never going to be bisexual.
Well, this answers my previously posed question about why you felt the need to include the fact that you were a heterosexual woman. At least one thing got cleared up.
Again, who are you to lay judgment that because some of girls are loving and touchy-feely automatically makes us bi-sexual?
You want to get really direct? I enjoy kissing girls. I enjoy a female's body and I will definitely grab onto a rack of tits just because I want to. I've been like that for years. Doesn't make me a straight up bi-sexual.
The only reason you can claim it's predominant is because the ones that do it are more "seen" on the forum. Just because that is, doesn't make it some brand new thing.
And, seriously, "omnomnom" -- Enjoy a piece of food. We even made an emoticon for forum that is stated as "omnomnom". Stop using that as an excuse.
Helena said:
From the outside, and the pictures that were posted from the gatherings, it seems from my outside point of view, that there is quite a bit of kissing and groping that goes on with the tickling at the gatherings.
And you're welcome to your opinion. As wrong as it may be. You're welcome to it. I guess you'll just have to come to a gathering and figure it out for yourself.
But again, that involves you having to take more initiative instead of laying blatant judgment.
Helena said:
For the last month, I've been in the silly section basically, and the celebration forum. I come here for tickling, but it's not really what I find here like I once did...at least in the same form.
Then start a damn thread, Helena. Judging by this thread you are completely aware how to do it. Don't sit here and make a thread pointing fingers and making rude, snide comments at the few of us that express ourselves a bit more freely then YOU DEEM appropriate.

...but am I the only one who interpreted Helena's original post as reflecting a sense of being left out?
No. You're not. But, this isn't just a case of being left out.
