Should tickling clips be put on YouTube?

[rhiannon]

However, I don't think it's necessarily even "about" the children per se. You must realize that, as tickling fetishists, whether you want to admit it or not, you are essentially a bunch of perverts as far as the "mainstream" is concerned, and you have no right, nor necessarily any reasonable expectation, of being accepted by the mainstream as anything other than what you are. And, frankly, I personally think that, if anything, it "corrupts" the fetish even to try to get it "accepted" by the mainstream.

We're a bunch of fetishistic perverts and there are "appropriate places" for "people like us", and youtube isn't one of them...IMHO.

You know what? I REALLY liked that! 🙂 That was one hell of a self-reflected post! 🙂

Reading Last Laugh's post brings up a new question for me: Why SHOULD tickling clips be posted on YouTube? What is the actual benefit from it?

Only one benefit that I can think of to fetish video producers, and it's a fairly obvious one -- it's FREE advertising.

...which is way more effective on here!

Agreed. It makes it much easier for both the producers and the potential buyers to find each other if it's posted in a place where one might logically expect to find it, rather than among possibly millions of completely unrelated things on youtube. (I've never bought a tickling video in my life, but I know I don't go to youtube looking for things to buy, and I suspect that most other youtube visitors don't either, and very few of them to buy tickling videos.)

I say no, they shouldn't be posted on youtube, and I will tell you why!

I am looking at it not from the kids' point of view, but from the point of view of the models! If I was shooting a fetish tickling clip, I wouldn't have a problem with it being posted on fetish sites. I WOULD have a problem if it was posted on Youtube though. Literally everybody could stumble across it there by accident, my boss, my colleague, my parents.

If anyone of these people found it on a fetish site and confronts me with it, I can always say "Well...what brought YOU to that site?" If the person finds it on Youtube....what can I say???? On Youtube are way too many people I wouldn't agree with knowing about my fetish!

That.

How is that a contradiction? You ARE a raving weirdo, and compared to things like actual pornos tickling clips ARE tame. I don't see how one being true precludes the other one from being true also.

Tame as it is, it's still sexualised content.

Too much. The internet is indeed a wild and scary place, but I honestly don't think the wild and scary nature of the internet is something children should be kept away from. The real world is also a wild and scary place; are you going to prevent your kids from watching the news or going outside too?


Except for your children, obviously.



So you also fail to recognise the potential of the internet to be used as a learning tool. Utterly irrelevant to the thread, but interesting to note.



So your solution is to simply deprive them of access to a tool they're more than likely going to be working with in their future lives?


More waffle.


Because the internet is a bastion of freedom, and some people either don't know or don't care, for whatever reason, about the possible consequences of posting stuff on YouTube.

Also, where did I make the argument that videos of kids being tickled should remain online?

Wow, that didn't make a lot of sense, and I'm to tired to repeat everything...again. Just throw out some more personal attacks, since you're so good at it. I won't even report it to the moderators.

For everyone else, how about this, for all you who are so offended by tickling content....even though we are all members of a tickling forum, but whatever.... why not actually DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT:

All of you who criticized me - go find as many tickling clips as you can on YouTube. Do like TIB/TIW and claim you are the original copyright holder, and demand the clips be removed. Or, claim it highly offended you, and your children were scarred by viewing them and are crying in the bathroom, and demand they be removed immediatly. Or whatever you want to say.

This will fix this whole "problem" and render this thread mute.

Straw man. I don't think anyone here said they were "offended by" tickling clips, as you've suggested. Nor am I sure anyone has necessarily argued for greater "prohibition", or censorship, on youtube. The debate is merely whether or not we believe that fetish clips "belong" on Youtube. Misstating the issue doesn't lend credibility to your argument.

18+!!!. i have no problem with it.

Insert what name? A lot of these sites people don't even know about.



Those clips don't exactly scream 'family friendly' now do they?


Welcome to any other website out there. Do you think these producers would be any safer if they did go to a porn related site? No of course not! Right now it's just making whatever excuse we can NOT to post on youtube. First it was protecting kids, then it was protecting models, now were on producers. What's next?

I'm sorry, but as a producer myself (not tickling) it comes with the territory. You either find ways to find it and eliminate it. Or you miss it and never find it. Simple as that. Just hope your fans are nice enough to let you know it's going on.

That's why producers here need to have a better relationship with their customers. I've seen too many producers giving attitudes. Too many telling people their opinions don't matter.

Also a lot of producers actually post on youtube. So obviously they aren't too afraid or put off by it.

So bottom line is this. As long as there is a youtube there will be people posting tickling related things. Just flag those that feature children taking 'requests' and let producers know when you see their stuff being posted.

Producers do not put 8-10 minute clips of their videos which they price on C4S.

And google is not just a female sound effect

and those are the ones off top of my head i can recall, not to mention the loads on dailymotion

Here's something to consider... pornographic material is against YouTube's terms of service. They're really lousy at enforcing it that, obviously, but that's the bottom line. It's not a matter of "should", it's a matter of "can" - and, technically, we can't.

Of course, this community is all about what it can "get away with", so I'm probably just pissing in the wind with that notion.

Well, I'm still seeing tickling clips on YouTube, so ya'll better get to it!

 

[rhiannon]

I don't see the big deal with it; YouTube deletes the clips, constantly. So why even bother to upload them? Why go where we're not wanted if there are plenty of other possibilities? That's like having a topless sunbath on a playground!
