Is it possible to lose one's sensitivity to tickling?
I've often heard or read people became less sensitive to tickling while getting older. This proved to be absolutely wrong for some people I know but seems to be right in my case. Particularly, my feet, which were extremely ticklish when I was a kid, now don't really react to tickling. And my upperbody, which also was insanely ticklish in the past, are moderately ticklish. Bad tickler? Loss of sensitivity? I don't know. But I can't really believe it's possible to lose one's sensitivity to tickling. Neither can I admit that some people aren't ticklish at all.
That's the reason why I'll ask three questions :
1) Do you think it's possible for ticklishness to lessen ?
2) Do you think some people really aren't ticklish at all ?
3) Do you think it's possible to revive (or awaken) one's sensitvity to tickling ?
