'ler to 'lee?

[aussietickler1]

I've always considered myself a 'ler, but I've slowly been becoming more and more attracted to the idea of being tied down and tickled (by women). At the moment, it's just the idea of it that I find appealing but I'd still be reluctant to actually let myself be tied down and tickled (I'm off the charts ticklish and it might be more pain than pleasure). For any of you 'lers turned 'lee or switches amoung you, how do you begin that transition? Do you just find a 'ler and jump straight in or do you take it in baby steps kinda thing?

Well, maybe don't start with bondage. Start with a little ticklefight or something with someone who seems interested. If you start with being tied down and you have a bad experience it could put you off being tickled altogether and you could miss out on a /lot/ of fun. 🙂

I've been there. I was seeing a girl who was a switch at the time, so experimenting turned out to be pretty easy.

I have to say that although I may enjoy fantasizing about switching, the experience taught me that I'm definitely a 'ler in practice. You might find out the same thing.

Hey there's no law that states that you need to choose only one side 🙂 I'm 95% a LEE I'd say but it takes a certain person to turn me into a LER. Don't think too hard into transitioning. It is what it is whenever you are feeling something 🙂

Well, I've never actually done any offline tickleplay so... maybe I'm not really the best person to post here... but I AM very much a switch and have done my fair share of IM play (which I know doesn't really count very much because what would I know about really doing it, but I'm trying to help ok :c), and I know for me personally it depends on the person and how far you really want to go with it. Like I said, I don't even have any offline experience and I won't 'lee with anyone until I've talked to them for a little while and know them. If you do use bondage, I think you need to be comfortable with them and have a certain level of trust already there. It would suck for the experience to be ruined because of the particular person, not the set-up. For how ticklish you claim to be, it might be easier for you to start on the lighter side of the scale first and try and get an idea of it you like that much or not. I mean you don't want to jump in too far and think you hate it from just one too hard go-around. It's kind of up to the other person; they need to be versatile and not opposed to maybe having to change their style because you're not used to the receiving end.

So yeah not necessarily baby steps, but you definitely don't need to rush into it if you don't want to. Stockytickler put it well. Besides- lots of girls think ticklefights are cute. 😉

I just recently discovered the amazing feeling of being the "lee", after years of thinking it´s just the "ler" part that gets me going. I only tried it without bondage so far but I´m some much looking forward to have my GF throw some cuffs on me and test my limits =) So by all means, find a safe way into it that feels good cause it´s a great experience!

Lemme axe you somthin' - how did you get "more and more attracted to the idea" of being the 'lee? Have you been really tickled lately? Did you hate it at first, and now you kinda like it?

OR if by attracted, you mean 'curious?'

I had the classic conversion (if there is such a thing) from 'ler to 'lee. At first, I was 100% 'ler; all I wanted to do was tickle girls when I was younger. And I always shyed away from being tickled when they naturally wanted to tickle me back. I didn't know how ticklish I was then, I just wanted no part of that (thought being: 'you tickling me' is taking time away from 'me tickling you').

THAT was until a few years ago, when my girlfriend tickled me while we were fooling around... I found out how crazy ticklish I am, and she just went to town on me... it felt amazing and I was a changed man then & there.

Now, I'm pretty sure I'm a true 50-50 tickle switch.

My advice: start low & go slow. Find a girl with negotiable morals (the hardest part), and start off with light stuff, no bondage & go from there. Good luck

That's some good advice, thankyou 🙂 I definitely think it seems like a good idea to start off slow (like without bondage), see how I like it and work from there. I've only ever engaged in tickleplay as a 'ler so I really have no idea about my limits as a 'lee, although I have been on the receiving end quite a bit in RP (which as you said, can't really be compared to the real thing). Tickle fights sound like a good place to start 😀

Honestly, no. Well I definitely haven't been tickled for any prolonged periods of time anyway. I guess in answer to your question I'd have to say I'm more curious than anything, but it's weird cos like you I'd always considered myself 100% 'ler and then this curiosity kind of just came out of nowhere. I guess I'd just have to put it down to being a natural progression after being into tickling for so long. But yeah, I guess it'll be pretty hard to determine whether it's just the idea of it that I like or the actual sensation itself until I give it a crack. Starting off slow, of course. Watch this space! 🙂

Lee, ler or both? Well, I've always been both, right from the start. In fact the only way I could convince my wife to let me tickle her was to allow her to do it to me first. Then gradually she let me try it on her - without bondage at first and for short periods of time. After a few sessions she came to let me tie her down and tickle her, naked and spread eagle, at first for brief periods, but eventually with no restrictions on time. We both love it and it's become a special part of our foreplay. So count me as both lee and ler.

I wish I'd done it a lot sooner

aussietickler1, as a lifelong tickler of women I never gave much thought to switching with or submitting. It was not until nine years ago that I let myself be tied and tickled, by a professional dominatrix, no less, in a switch tickle session at a dungeon, and wished I had done it a lot sooner. For me, the difference was such a desirable woman having her way with me. She was the kind of woman who'd never think twice about a guy like me were I not paying for her time, and as sex was out of the question, letting her tickle me was the best way to get her hands on me.
