i still live with my parents, and i think its time they knew of my tk fetish. im just, kinda nervous, wondering how theyll take it, kinda embarressed, cuz its a very personal thing, and.....just hesitant. any1 got any advice?
 
Just say it. Take a deep breath and shout it. Then walk off.
 
This is just me, but I don't think you should tell them. I could understand wanting to your girlfriend, but I don't see why your parents have to know. Why do you want to tell them?
 
Why ask his reasons? Maybe he loves his parents and they love him so he might not want to you know...have it hidden...?
He isn't like every male or female in here.


And somebody's going to get on my behind about that...but I don't care.

I just wanted to know if his reason for wanting to tell them was acceptance. Because if that is the case he could get hurt. If he wants them to accept it and be okay with it and he tells them and they think he is weird, then he could get hurt.

I'm just saying that if you are gonna "come out" than you got to be ready for positive and negative reactions.
 
I think it's best not to discuss one's sexuality with relatives because it's really none of their business. Besides, if the people you live with react badly, the consequences could be serious.
 
I would advise against telling them if it's just for the sake of having them know. I think it's probably highly unlikely that they're going to do anything that'll help you enjoy your fetish. If anything, they might even take the fact that you're telling them as a sign that you're admitting something's wrong with you, in which case they might lecture you on why it's wrong because it's not normal. If it's trusted friends or someone you're in a relationship with, by all means tell them. But I can't see exactly any benefit that would come from telling your parents.
 
i agree with mistress valarie completely on this.Telling friends or lovers is one thing...telling relatives (especially ones you live with) can backfire badly if they aren't as open minded and understanding as you thought
 
Well, notch me up with everyone else who says not to do it. Tickling is sexual to me - the only one who it really concerns is me and my sexual partner. And my girl knows anyhow.

But I am curious as to why you'd want to tell them. I'm not saying "Don't do it - for the love of God don't do it!" - I'm simply curious as to why.

Cheers man, and good luck with whatever you do.

This is totally your call, and none of us know your situation, or your relationship with your parents...

For me, and this is just my humble opinion, unless we're sleeping together, there is no reason for you to know my fetishes...it's one thing to come out as gay, or bisexual, or transgendered, or republican (j/k) but coming out about your tastes in the sack...well, I don't want to know how my parents fool around or what gets them going...and I would hope they don't want to know about my tastes either...

If you're living with them especially, I wouldn't do it...it's unnecessary...and potentially dangerous for you...

So, if you are feeling oppressed by the need to tell someone, find a good friend and tell them instead...mom and dad are not the best option, I'm afraid...

Good luck to you, whatever you do!!!!

The "Potentially Dangerous" part they're talking about is...

Well, imagine this. If your parents hear your bed going "Squeek Squeek Squeek Squeek Squeek Squeek Squeek Squeek" would they be like, "QUIT SCREWING THAT GIRL IN MY HOUSE!"

and, if so, imagine what would happen EVERY TIME they heard a girl laugh in your house.

Thats kinda bad...

BUT, if your parents are down with you doing anything anyway, they might be accepting of it.

Like everybody else, I suggest you tell either a friend, or a girl you like, or are currently seeing.

Parents are an odd one...
 
i wanna tell them because i dont wanna have to hide it, like whenever 1 of my parents is within vision distance of the computer, delete the tickletheater.com page. i hate having to do that. its just kinda annoying. and btw, to whoever said it, my bed squeaks if somebody merely sits on it, so they dont know the difference, lol
 
i see no need to discuss sexuality with your parents unless it directly affects them, like in the sense of being gay or lesbian, where they would need to know, but tickling is soemthing they dont need to know at all. and think about it in the sense of, you dont duscuss normal sexual thigns with them....(at least no one i do does) so whats the point?

i have a very close and very trusting relatiosnhip with my parents, but i havent told them, cuz they dont need to know, and frankly i dont need to or want to know anything about their sexualities either. >_<
 
Think telling your parents would be the last thing you should do, I live at home and would never dream of it. Tell your girlfriend or your best mate but not your parents
 
If you HAVE to tell them, I would focus more on the people you chat with rather than the content. Describe some of the personalities and tell them this forum was just something you read about somewhere else and checked out a link and the people here ended up being really cool and there's alot of young adults around the world who chat 'round the clock about everything, not just tickling. You could water it down and say "I thinks it's a pretty unusual topic myself, but I just got to talking with a bunch of them and found out they're just a bunch of normal/interesting people who love a good laugh". If you're discreet about viewing downloads, it may not seem as weird as hitting them out of the blue with "Mom... Dad... I have a tickle fetish."

I'd freeze in hell before I'd include my parents in anything, but if you can do it and have them realize you're not so much diddling yourself under the desk as you are just chatting with a bunch of people [or artists] in a forum with an unusual topic, give it a shot if it's that important to you. Most of the people here telling you not to do it probably imagine themselves telling their own parents and it freaks them out. Nobody here knows your parents but you. Maybe they're pretty understanding.


Or maybe you'll have to move out and you'll never see them again and you'll be ostracized from the community and live in unlocked cars at the mall.
 
I can sympathize with your reasoning, kiddo. The entire reason I came out to my roommates was because I didn't want to have to hide it from them while I lived in the same house as them. But your parents are far less likely to be as understanding as friends are. If you tell them so you don't have to hide it from them, they're a lot more likely to just watch you more closely and make sure you're not coming here.
 
I would tend to agree with the others who said they'd refrain from telling a relative about a sexual fetish. If you were gay or whatever, then that's a major lifestyle, and probably cultural situation that should be addressed with loved ones at some point with hopefully a favorable outcome. This, though, is just a sexual fetish. I would equate it to wanting to tell your parents that you are really into women's breasts, or have a major thing for anal sex or something. What would their reaction be if they found out you were checking out straight up porn on the web and you forgot to delete the browser history? I can't come up with any advice on how to tell them since I wouldn't. Good luck with it!
 
Darlin, I just had a thought...I know it might be a bit of a cash flow problem, but is there any way you can get a computer of your own in your room and a wireless router? A desk PC is around $300-400 and a router you can find for $80ish or less...save up...it will be worth it...and then you don't need to tell mom and dad...

Crisis averted.

i hate to be this way, but i'm siding with the rest of the crowd. TRUST ME. If your parents know, it'll change the whole dynamic of the relationship. "so, meet any ticklish girls today?" instead of "so, meet anyone interesting these days?"

it's gonna be a shit situation for you if they find that your so wierd and probably a little disappointed that their kid can't be "normal." every parent wants what's "normal" to begin with for their children, and whatever else happens that can be put on top that is looked upon as positive.
 
Oh yeah, and parents' idea of "normal" often times is at least one step behind what society actually accepts... kinda like the government!
 
Don't do it. Everyone has their little kinks and sometimes things are better left unsaid.
 
See if you can get your parents to sign up, too, and we can all talk to them.
 
Better move the computer so noone can watch you surfing. No matter what you do on the computer, maybe the most "normal" stuff, but doesn't it suck when everyone can watch you?
Use Firefox with it's extensive privacy settings ;-)
 
I think the key for you is patience. I would wait to tell them about it until after you're fiancially independant and living on your own. If you wait until telling them isn't a liability then it will be alot easier to tell them. You risk less by waiting and risk more by telling them now. I think patience is the answer.

Having to delete or click off this site just when someone is walking behind you is sad, dishonest and could eventually make one paranoid (and may make you feel bad about yourself), but consider it something you have to live with until you move out. Use it's uncomfortability as motivation and use that to drive you toward independance.

Until then, its your pill to swallow as your situation seemingly cannot be helped.
 
I'd just do my best to get a computer in my room rather than talk with my parents about my sexual fetishes. Keep in mind, to them, there is no problem. To you it may seem like a big weight is lifted off your shoulders but this will be completely out of the blue to them, and it will probably creep them out. Also remember that once you tell them, they can't be untold. You think its nerve racking for them to walk by when you're visiting a tickle theater? Try the awkwardness that will result every time they walk in and see you at a computer after you've explained to them you spend all your time browing a tickling fetish site.
