Last spring I was contacted by someone who claimed to be a writer for a mens magazine. He said they were doing a series of articles that would be about girls but were, obviously, intended to really be turn-ons for guys. He had the idea of doing one about tickle fights and asked for my contribution. I never heard back from the guy, and since it's been so long since I've heard from him I've decided to go ahead and publish it here 🙂

Every girl loves a good tickle fight. It's a great excuse to have a little rough-housing fun with your friends, laugh your head off for a while, and find out who's boss! But if you're going to do this, you want to win! So here are some tips for starting and winning a tickle fight.
The best way to provoke a tickle fight is to get your intended opponent to make a smart remark at your expense; something that you can claim deserves retaliation. But really any excuse will do, such as a raised arm reaching for something, an exposed stomach when she yawns and her shirt rides up to show her bare tummy, or something as simple as turning her back on you when you're feeling playful.
Choosing the right person, the right time, and the right place for your tickle fight all deserve careful consideration. Presumably you already know who you want to tickle and who you want to tickle you, so that part should be easy. But you should make sure that your intended playmate feels that way about you too and is open to some friendly rough-housing. That girl at work who you always take a coffee-break with and goes out with you for drinks after work is a great choice, especially when you both have a couple of glasses of wine in you. On the other hand, the supervisor who is always giving you a hard time for being three minutes late and really deserves to be tickled until she wets her pants should be given a second thought at the least before you decide to go after her. And that meter maid who you catch putting a parking ticket under your windshield wipers? Forget it!
Time and location are also critical when planning your battle. A tickle fight in the workplace can break up an otherwise dull day, and if you're in the lunch room and your friend reaches up to get the coffee filters down off the shelf, conveniently exposing her ribs and armpits to your devilish fingers, that could very well be the perfect time to strike. On the other hand, no matter how much it would improve an otherwise boring meeting if you started tickling the gal next to you, it's probably not a good idea to interrupt your boss with a squealing, giggling catfight. And don't be afraid to do it in front of witnesses. The next best thing to being in a good tickle fight is watching one. Your male co-workers especially will appreciate it!
When you go for that first tickle, make it good. Most people aren't ticklish to a feathers touch (feathers are so light and ephemeral that they're really better used for an erotic tickle, which is a story for another day) so use the weapons God gave you as a woman: your fingernails. No matter what reaction you get when you make your first assault, though, use it as an excuse to go on to the next level.
If she reacts ticklishly, put on your most flirty smile and purr at her, "Ohhh, so you're ticklish are you!" and move in for the kill. If she pretends not to be ticklish, it's just an act, so don't fall for it: nine times out of ten, it's something she's learned to do in order to conceal the fact that she's really VERY ticklish. If that's how she wants to play it, grin at her wolfishly and tell her what you already know, "Everyone is ticklish!" and dare her to prove that she isn't.
A study was done once (an actual study at an actual California university believe it or not,) and they proved scientifically what most people already know, that the most ticklish spots on the human body are the waist, ribs, armpits and feet. Use that knowledge to your advantage. If she doesn't react to a light, scribbling tickle, try pinching, not too hard but just a gentle tweak of her sensitive flesh. The best places for this kind of tickle are the center of her waist, the edges of her hipbones, or the spaces in between her ribs.
This applies to you too, though. Above all, don't be afraid to laugh! A tickle fight is give-and-take, and you are going to get tickled so get used to the idea. If you're in a tickle fight, the worst thing you can do is panic and curl up into a ball. It's not going to save you, and it's going to ruin your chances of giving worse than you get, which is the name of this game. Ideally this is what you want your friend to do, give up trying to tickle you in a vain attempt to protect her own vulnerable parts.
If she does curl up into a defensive ball of giggles, she will still be leaving plenty of ticklish spots open for you. Try tickling her ribs from behind, or her feet, legs or bum. Almost every woman, including you whether you know it or not, has a ticklish behind. And if you really want to give her a surprise, tickle her ears. As you probably are well aware, a woman’s ears are extremely sensitive, and if you suddenly start flicking your fingernails at hers when she least expects it, she'll probably go right through the roof!
The key to winning a tickle fight is persistence. No matter how ticklish you are, and no matter how much you want to escape, don't give up! Be the more determined tickler, and suck it up and take your laughs like a woman! A good trick for surviving this experience is to vent your feelings. Don't try to act like it's not bothering you if it really tickles so bad that you can hardly stand it. Laugh, scream, or even curse like a sailor if that's what you feel like doing. Letting all those intense feelings out is the best way of not letting them overwhelm you. A tickle fight is an endurance trial and the one who can take the most tickling without giving up is the one who's going to win.
Knowing when to stop is the final consideration of a tickle fight. In a perfect world, you are winning this playful little battle and it's up to you to decide when you accept surrender from your vanquished foe. Although "Uncle!" is the universally accepted word of surrender in a tickle fight, there's no law that says you have to accept it. After all, it could be a trick, a ruse to make you drop your guard and give her a few seconds to catch her breath and launch a counter attack! A few things to look for are 1) tears of laughter: if she's crying from how hard you're making her laugh, you've pretty much won this battle. 2) Complete physical submission: if she's not even trying to tickle you back and is just wriggling around under your merry fingers, she's toast and you're the victor. And finally 3) silent laughter: if she's laughing so hard she can't breathe, then she's putty in your hands and you can probably make her your slave for life if you're willing to let her off the hook!
Finally, don't be afraid to gloat! Rub it in, brag to everyone about how you kicked her butt, tell others how ticklish she is, and any time she gives you a hard time, or you just feel like being the alpha female, just grin, wiggle your fingernails at her, and say "Coochie coochie coooooo!"
