First Exposure to Tickling?

[Dave2112]

I'm curious to hear what all of you remember as your FIRST exposure to seeing someone tickled and realizing that "Hey, this is cooooool...."

Mine was in 1975.I was about 8 and I was allowed to stay up and watch the Doug Henning Magic Show on NBC. He did an illusion where he sawed Julie Newmar in thirds in a horizontal thin-box. When he removed the center section and opened the panel, my eyes must have been like saucers as he tickled her side as she laughed hysterically from a few feet away. As I remember, Doug always spent a little more time tickling his assistants than most illusionists. (Things that make you go....Hmmmmmmmmmm)

That was the beginning of the Path for me, what about you guys?

My first "conscious" memory was when I was in second grade. We had a priest in our parish who was like a big kid and was always fooling around with us on the playground...often chasin and tickling us. I'd always go up and try to get him to chase me so I'd get tickled when he caught me. The same was true with others...adults and kids alike. If we played "kidnap", I'd always vollunteer to be the victim...who was, of course, tormented during her captivity. heehee What fun memories!😀

For me it would be that episode of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles where he ties up april and tickles her feet. I remember having a weird feeling while watching that.

Mine was in infancy, somewhere aroudn 3 or 4. I have vague recall of a babysitter I was trying to tickle, and knew what that entailed. That means someone had to have tickled me, assumably said babysitter, or my family.

First tickling experience

Like DVNC, my first tickling memory comes from a very early age...probably about five. I actually had an aunt who enjoyed having her feet tickled. She must have been in her mid-twenties at the time. She would wait until we were in a room alone together, then take off her shoes and ask me to tickle her. Once, I believe she even offered me a nickel. Needless to say, at that age it didn't make much sense, but the memory was still there in later days, past puberty, when I read a story about a woman being tickled. The connection was etched in my brain at that moment.

The best I can do is 3yrs of age. I remember running behind the curtains at the Doctor's office, and tickling women, because I thought they couldn't see where it was coming from! LOL Clearly, the fascination was there before those trips, in order for me to even THINK of doing that. Honestly, I don't recall a time when I wasn't fascinated by it.
