Wow Drew these are brilliant.
You wouldn't happen to have a Scan of the interview with Stephanie Locke mentioned on the cover would you ? I am rather a fan of hers.
The Stephanie Lock Interview
Stephanie: I couldn’t recommend the film that I did with Sharon Kane highly enough, if you love real, honest tickling, where the breathing changes, sweat glistens on the little girl’s forehead, and it’s adorable, and I’m laughing. We’re wearing real clothes; we’re real people. Every bit of that is real and every second of that film is real.
I did a few films for Harmony recently with Simone Devon, who I know you know, that have tickling in them. The first one that is really great is “Stolen Kisses.” It has me and Sharon Kane, and in her various bondage positions, I’m tickling her. I’m tickling her because I’ve suddenly realized she is ticklish in real life, and now it’s important for me to tickle her. It’s fun because that’s the movie where I really realize she’s ticklish.
Chelsea: That’s sort of the side of me where I have to find models for tickling videos. They tell me they’re really ticklish and it’s like I can’t resist it, even though I know that half way through the video they’re going to be having this tummy ache. I just can’t resist hiring them, because if they’re not really ticklish, it’s just no fun.
Stephanie: It’s just not the same thing. Exactly. So, the first few films I made with this lovely lady, when I tickled her, she has this really high laugh and I thought, “Ah, she’s faking it.” Wrong. She’s very ticklish and it’s fun. What’s nice about that movie is at the end of the movie, there are bondage vignettes with Danielle, Simone, and I believe Lauren Blake. It covers one of Chelsea’s and my favorite fetishes, girls in ballerina clothes and toe shoes. So the film is called “Stolen Kisses and Ballerina Dreams.” It’s a lot of fun.
I did do one more tickling video: Teased, Tied and Tickled for the Afternoon” with Alexandra who is on the cover of Bondage Fantasies #5. It just came out and it’s really good.
Chelsea: She’s cute.
Stephanie: She’s very cute.
Chelsea: She has a cute, husky laugh.
Stephanie: Yes, a husky laugh and really tries to get away and can’t – it’s fun. Because tickling, I think is sexier when you include bondage. Because when the girl, or the young man, the pet, the victim knows they can’t get away, it adds an urgency to what’s going on.
Chelsea: I never really heard from anybody into tickling, maybe I haven’t read enough letters yet, but just about everybody wants it with bondage.
Stephanie: Exactly, and when I was in bondage at 19, I would do switch tickling sessions. You see, a switch session or a switch game, is just when one person is dominant first and then the other one is dominant. So the key is, whoever is the submissive victim first, is logging what you’re doing and when it reverses, you’re in trouble. So ladies, I always recommend that you go submissive first because you can control the level of what’s going on. As a dominant, if she says, “wait, stop, no, I need to breathe,” believe her, because I know that the older tickling novels and magazines and stuff used to talk about tickling a girl till she peed, till she lost control, I don’t know if that’s that popular anymore. I haven’t run into it much anymore, so therefore, I recommend that the girl or the woman be tickled first and then the man.
But when I was tickled first, and I would be tied spread-eagled to a bondage bed, obviously you can tie someone to a bed or to the doorframe, or whatever, and they would approach my feet. By the time they got to mid-calf, I would begin the threats. “Don’t you dare tickle my feet! When I get untied, I’m going to kill you. You have no idea how much trouble you’re in if you touch me. So don’t you dare, you better not.” I mean literally I would threaten for two to twenty minutes because they’d almost get to my feet and then I’d stop them, and they’d want to keep tickling me because I was going to be The Mistress Stephanie Locke, one of the best mistresses in the world. I knew this at 19 and they knew time was running out. Every time they tickled me was you know, maybe, the last time. So they’d try to delay the inevitable. But eventually they’d have to get to my feet.
Well, If I was blindfolded and couldn’t notice them, especially you, Phil, I might survive. A paintbrush between the toes, however, that’s a tough one. Reverse the paintbrush; use the pointed end, that’s even tougher. Ladies, I recommend that. Gentlemen, it’s absolutely diabolical. Don’t just use the front of your feather, use the back of your feathers too. And don’t just stroke or tickle, you can also poke. You can tickle sort of like using acupressure points, because a tickling is also a massage, like a caress, like a tease, and like a workout. It can do all of these things..
So, when you’re tickling, ladies, I sant to explain this, most people aren’t just into tickling. Secretly they’d like to get tickled too. And it’s hard to admit that you’d like to get spanked and it’s hard to admit that you’d like to get tied up or tickled if you’re the man or if you’re always the controlling one, because, well, it’s a little embarrassing. Often women worry that if they tie you up, now you’re not going to want to be on top. Now you’re not going to want to pin them to the wall and kiss them.
You’re still going to want to be butch. If anything, you’re going to want to make love to them more afterwards, right, because you love them, you’re relieved, but it was hot, it was sexy, and now you have to be the boy, right, so you don’t lose any dignity by switching. And what I have found is the way that a lot of men, that love to be tickled, after being real diabolical and tickling, is they’re not going to move. They’re not going to make a noise. They’re not going to look at you. They’re not going to respond in any way, for up to an hour, and you’re going to keep trying.
Now the way you know that they love this, that there couldn’t be a happier moment in their lives is that, ladies, they’re going to get harder and harder and harder, until there is this nice wet shiny spot on the very foremost end of that manly member. Yes, it’s true. And meanwhile, they’re not going to do anything. Should you be a screamer, a giggler, a laugher, a squealer, I’m impressed. It’s rare in a man. It’s us girls, women, who tend to be the victim ones.
You guys have taken football, baseball, knees in the groin, Ben-Gay in the jock, you name it, and survived. A little tickling – you can’t handle it. It’s torture. You must go through commando war scenarios, you’re not admitting in your head. But, at this time, you’re enjoying it.
So ladies, when you do force the issue, remember that you can sit on top of him, anywhere you want and then you can continue to tickle him. So vary your techniques.
Chelsea: Or untie his hands let him tickle you.
Stephanie: Tickle you! Good thinking, yes, you can co-tickle. You can snuggle and tickle at the same time. Life is good, if you bring this into the household and the bedroom.
Chelsea: Yes, it’s an extremely useful marital aid.
Stephanie: It’s really good in nature too. In the park, against a tree.
Chelsea: Oh, really? Outdoor tickling. Oh tell us all about outdoor tickling. We like this.
Stephanie: Oh goody, goody, goody.
Chelsea: This is something you could do and almost get away with, in public!
Stephanie: Get away with in public? You can. The first thing is that I have a weakness for what I call “picnic.” Picnics and picnic games are where you wear big, pretty white dresses. White, peach, beige. Sun dresses with full skirts. And then, based upon your wickedness, cotton panties or silk panties. You can do sandals, tennis shoes, or high heels.
But the object is that at some point, the male is probably sitting underneath you as you’re like at a park bench or a picnic table (a) or like the Olivia drawing, with the feast all around you and the boy under you.
But along with the picnic, you can do anything, you see, ‘cause you can play normal games. Or you can have your feet kissed. You can have your feet kissed in the park. It’s so nice to stretch out on the lawn, under a tree, and put your feet first in someone’s hands and have them massaged in your dainty little ballet slippers or something. Seriously, I had satin, gray silk slippers that were toe shoes, and I would go out in the park in them in big, white Laura Ashley dresses, and have them play with my feet and then eventually put the feet in the mouth.
Well, if you were into tickling, you could start by massaging her feet, feeding her champagne and strawberries and chocolates and kissing her and then since she’s got this pretty white frilly dress around her, you could tickle her laying on top of her and getting tangled in the skirts and laughing and joking. It’s a wonderful tool for making out.
Chelsea: That sounds like fun! Take it from me guys, it would work.
Stephanie: Yes, make sure it’s a really pretty dress and if she doesn’t have it, start by buying her dresses like that. Girls respond to dresses you can lift up, button down, see move in the wind, right?
Chelsea: Okay, right – romance!
Stephanie: We want to be pretty while we’re playing. So make sure that we’re happy, or that they’re happy.
Speaking as a mistress, sitting here in my pearls and my beige and white silk, it’s important to be perfect when you’re doing this stuff. Don’t expect her to be wearing “Frederick’s of Hollywood” purple and red lace. Tasteful Frederick’s is one thing, but tacky stuff, she probably doesn’t want to do it. Some women want to wear their leopard print. Buy it for them. But make sure when you initiate anything out of the ordinary, no matter how light, because tickling is so light that you should be able to tickle just about anybody that you know, under the right circumstances. I mean, it doesn’t scare people, like other things. But make sure you do it tastefully, and that gets back to: Don’t do bear hugs, wrestling and grabbing a girl thing that you did when you were 9 to 15 years old, now that you’re 28 or 54, you are a bit stronger. She may be plumper. She may be moving slower. She may just be shocked. What you can take for fun, we girls can start crying from. Women are a lot more delicate than they act.
Tickling brings out a huge range of emotions. Being tickled on the school ground, being tickled by your bigger brothers who held you down. I mean girls have been tickled and boys have been tickled and bullied through tickling.
So, when beginning to tickle, be very soft, be very mischievous. Explore this, and don’t get into rowdy tickling until you’ve really explored the other stuff, because rowdy tickling is good for ten seconds, fire minutes, but it’s a short play.
Chelsea: Just a little bit of wrestling and that’s it.
Stephanie: Exactly.
Chelsea: Now next question. Let’s go in a whole different direction. Did you ever find that there was a specific type of clothing or lingerie or something that is preferred in a tickling session by the male for the female to wear, or vice versa?
Stephanie: Tickling and ticklees, the whole genre, I think you’re a bit shy, or it is kind of easy to tickle occasionally, so there’s not that much of a need to come visit us, but there was a particular person, and I believe he’s actually more of a type. He loved to see young ladies who wear knee high socks, preferably white. And he also loved to wear them. I think that tickling the schoolgirl, the schoolgirl uniform, the short, pleated skirt, the white shirt, the ankle socks to the knee-highs, that’s a turn-on. I would think that tickling the feet in a gradual disrobement, first tickling the girl while she’s dressed, then removing her loafers or her saddle shoes and tickling her socks, then eventually baring, (gasp) “how dare you and how cruel of you,” her bare feet (oh, no!) to tickle. I think that’s kind of universal.
If, along the way, you’re slowly unbuttoning her shirt buttons, (oh, no!) to reveal her bra and tickling her top part so that her dress begins to ride up and going for her tummy so her blouse is coming out a little, (oh, dear), it could be too much fun.
The truth is you can wear anything, absolutely anything. The key is, feel pretty, or your, or sexy, or bratty about what you’re wearing. So for some girls, for some women that’s going to be sweat clothes, because it sort of a wrestling, tussle, athletic shirt, blue jeans kind of thing. For some women, it’s going to be really pretty. Some people like to be very lady-like, or very well-groomed, in the male sense, and that way, when you get tickled, you get disheveled and a little flushed and sweaty and in disarray.
There is sometimes, I would hope, that if this is in your personal life, it’s foreplay, so eventually the clothes are going to be off, or part of them are going to go off and you’re going to continue on. So certainly anything and pretty lingerie – what could be nicer? I mean love lingerie. You don’t need to go garter belt and stockings or corset. But a bra and panties, matching in lace or in silk or velvet – peach, red, white, black, purple – get inventive.
Chelsea: Painted toenails!
Stephanie: Definitely. I forgot that because I’ve skipped doing that, but – yes.
Chelsea: There seems to be a big cross between foot fetishism and tickling and that is the thing that brings on a little embarrassing element for a woman, because most women are a little bit shy about their feet. So you want to do stuff like that – you want to paint your toenails.
Stephanie: You want to soften them. You want to know your feet are cute and seductive and sexy and sometimes even a little wicked. You can go platinum or pink or you can go all the way into reds and deep purples.
Chelsea: I wonder if there’s anybody who really has a preference, like the toenails HAVE to be painted.
Stephanie: Yes, yes, yes, definitely. Speaking as a mistress and as a second generation “pretty foot,” color of toe nail polish can be very important, and as a sub-fetish – long toe nails. I had six years where I had long toenails. There’s an artist named Tom that used to draw them for Countess Anne’s movie, “Lashes.”
There was a mistress, she’s still around. Her name is Crystal. She’s an older mistress. I met her when I was 20. She had very long toenails, we’re talking toenails ¼” over the toe. And I grew mine in Omage for about four years. And I liked it, because when you lick the feet, then you could put your tongue under the toenail and really clean and worship – it just was a power image. I wore a lot of open toed sandals and high heels and stuff, and then, having lived all over the world, when I went home, one time to see my mother, I took off my shoes and there were my long, painted, very glamorous toe nails. My mother said, “Goodness, darling, don’t tell me that you’re going to keep your toenails like that.” I knew that I had the ultimate fetish toenails and was very proud of them. Now I’ve seen longer since, but they were some of the longest you have ever seen. They were beautiful. I loved them. But I’m very proud of my feet.
So as a result, my mother said, “The horrible women in the Philippines that aren’t really women, meaning drag queens or transvestites, girls of the night, they paint their toenails and they grow them long like that.” And then they sharpen them like daggers and when they are standing on the same corner, they kick each other in the shins, as weapons to get rid of the other girls.
Chelsea: That’s horrid!
Stephanie: Isn’t that amazing!
Chelsea: That’s horrid!
Stephanie: But what I found most charming about this whole story is that my mother had noticed drag queens, noted their toenails and knew that they used them as weapons.
Everyone is aware of foot fetishes. I became aware of foot fetishes at the age of 4, because my mother has exquisite feet. She wore the Italian and Greek sandals in the 60’s that you could have worn 2,000 years ago, in gold and with the jewels. I lived in foot fetish countries: Germany, Japan, Spain are foot fetish countries and men used to sit on the trains and the subways and stare at my mothers perfect pedicured tootsies, then her three beautiful children with Dutch boy haircuts – blonde hair and blue eyes. That’s right, I was a blonde with blue eyes back then…so they used to stare at my mother’s feet.
One time we were on a subway, then a train and this very well dressed gentleman in a suit spent a whole afternoon(three hours or more) staring at my mother’s feet – sitting across from us, looking down very politely. Finally, when we got off the last public vehicle, he bowed in front of my mother on the platform and said, “Madame, you have very beautiful feet, the most beautiful I have ever seen,” and then he disappeared and my mother looked down and said, “Look darling, isn’t that nice” and that day I realized you could have a beautiful body, a brain, you could have taste in clothing, all of these things, but you could also have beautiful feet.
I feel, quite honestly, that a minimum of one in every ten people in the world loves beautiful feet – all feet – and this is women and men. I have a girl-friend who I was going to try to photograph for us but we didn’t have a chance. She, in the last month, discovered she loves to kiss tootsies. And a foot fetish is an honest fetish. Tickling, I would think it’s got to be at least one in ten, and probably one in four that could get into it easily. And like I said, I think you could almost tickle anybody in the right circumstances. Just don’t tickle them every day or once a week if they’d rather do it once a month or once a year. Try to get it a little more in your range, but don’t push. That’s the key, don’t push. But push a little, because it’s got to be real, somewhere in there.
