The age old question: why most people find tickling odd

[tummyfan2003]

trying to answer the age old Question

why do most people online that we talk to once they find out that we like tickling thier just thrown off by it or there just totaly disgusted by the thought of a teenager or older Adult injoying tickling a whole lot. Because people that you talk to in real life dont seem to grossed out by tickling in fact they pretty much for the most part think its alright to do. But in the chat rooms(other then this one) you always have thoses people that are real jerks so they'll just make fun of you or will just bad mouth you for be intrested in tickling. I find it just pretty funny that theres sicker intrests out there that people are into😛 but when it comes to being into tickling people find it really kind of strange. Just kinda brain racking & really mindboogling to getting down to the truth why people find it so Odd that there are some people out there that like tickling/being tickled?

hope we ALL can shed some light on this & hopefully come to a conclusion or semi-conclusion😉

Why others think we are weird

I think the root of this comes from the fact that a lot of people were tickled as childred by adults and not just their parents either. Just about any mention of Adult/Minor tickling is banned from these boards because that is just not kosher from our standpoint. We represent the sexualization of something that was innocent. They would rather just write us off as some extream sexual minority then even think about the possiblity that their uncle that always tickled them might have had some not so innocent motives.

I think that many times people will scare of non-ticklephiles by being very forward about their love for tickling with people on the internet.

Since these people have no idea who you truly are, you can go all out.

It makes up for all the people who you are afraid to let see your fetish in real life. But, oh well. I mean, I guess I'd have to be in their shoes to acurately answer this question!!!

I have never met a woman who thought my love of tickling was odd. They all thought it was cool and intriguing and sexy.

Max,

I think he is talking more about people online.

I agree, most of my g/f's have thought my tickling was actually very sexy.

But people online sometimes view it as odd because people will OVERDO IT!!!

Because liking tickling in a sexual way is weird. Why weird? Because its not normal. To someone who acheives sexual satisfaction from normal sexual activity alone, having a tickling fetish is something that they cannot understand.

This may be sour news to you, but there is nothing you can do about it nor should you try to. Just accept it and live your life.

What do you mean 'it's not normal'? Explain normal for us, please.

I don't think other people exactly think its dumb, they just aren't into it as much as us, and may think its strange, but hey, i just look at it as another hobby

I think they are afraid of what they don't understand

🙂 That's my opinion only. Most people I come in contact with do not think that Tickles or Tickling can be wonderful
they fear the unknown what they do not understand or have never experienced before. I know for me personally, I have not yet met a person that has the same passion, the desire if you will as I do for tickles or even tickling!
So I keep it to myself🙁

My husband know of my passion, but my other friends and family don't. Don't get me wrong, I am not ashamed of it....not at all! Tickles, tickling is a part of me and is a part of who I am. 😎

🙂 😀 😀 Long Live Tickles...Tickling! 🙂 😀 😀

Well, I wish I were Max Speer. Most of the girls I have dated have seen my tickling fetish as a weird and annoying nuisance.

I only dated one girl who tolerated it, and frankly, I think it was the disparity in looks that encouraged her to put up with it. Perhaps I am just unlucky, but unfortunately, for most of the girls I meet, if you are not into breast, ass, or snatch, they think you are a weirdo to be avoided.

Interestingly, I did not face so much opposition to tickling and foot action in high school. But college seems a lot mroe closed minded (it's a wam-bam, thank you maam environmet).

As an interesting aside, I was dating a girl who had a really ticklish tummy (but not feet). Anyway, we were fooling around, and I was getting really hot tickling her tummy with my tongue. It wasn't anything torturous. She could tell that I was on the verge of laying down the smack. But she killed the mood by telling me to stop tickling her. That was the last time I saw her (really sad).

It seems that most girls I have met do not equate tickling with sex. When I tickle them, their first inclination is to get me to stop so that we can move on to something else. Its really sad, but that's the natuure of the world in which we live.

I just don't think most young girls are going to respond positively to tickling as a part of foreplay. They seem to want to get it on and get it done. I absolutely cannot relate to this mentality. But it seems to prevail among those pretty young things in their 20's.

Perhaps Max Speer knows something we don't. But down here in Florida, I have had very poor luck endulging my tickling desires.

Perhaps Max Speer knows something we don't. But down here in Florida, I have had very poor luck endulging my tickling desires.

To me, all the women that I have met and accepted and enjoyed my tickling fetish were NOT in our community. That is to say that I was just a regular guy dating a 'vanilla' woman.

I have written about this in the past but I have no problem talking about it.

Maybe there are several factors that I am aware of like a 'vibe' I get from the women that I am attracted to. This vibe might tell me that she is game. However, I think it's my approach that always wins them over. If we are together and she cares about me then I tell them, NOT that I have this burning secret, but rather that there is knowledge about me that would give them tremendous power over me. This knowledge would give them a power to drive me out of my mind sexually. It's sexy and intriguing before she even knows what it is. If she truly cares for me (as I do for her) then she will WANT to know what this is. Once I tell them the reactions run the gamut between "Is that all? I can do that." to "I never heard of that at all. It sounds fun." Soon, they learn to really love it. One actually became a convert.

Back when I was in college, I met a girl who I fell in love with. I was pretty much in the closet at that time and, like others, feeling embarrassed and ashamed of my fetish. I presented a list of sexual likes and dislikes to my girlfriend. When it came to tickling she said "I don't like that". When I heard that, rather than being discouraged, I said, "Well I have a confession. That's my biggest turn-on." She responded right away by saying, "You can tickle me if you want." She had a very loving an accepting attitude about it after that and we had lots of fun for years.

The point is, tickling is very intimate for me and I don't attack a girl on our first date and confess my tickling thing to her only to get rejected and feel like no one will ever fulfill my desires. Tickling is like kissing and sex. It is approached in the same way when discussing our sexual tastes.

To tell you the truth, if I did find a woman who said "I will never tolerate that" then she would be history.

But the truth of the matter is I have had some great, healthy relationships where tickling was not only tolerated but enjoyed and I was even accepted as a participator in this Community.

Now, on a humorous note. The girl that I meet next will not only be exposed to my tickling fetish but she has to be approved by members of the NEST groups since I really enjoy seeing my girlfriends tickled by others. That's a big responsibility, but I'm sure that those who attended any NESTs over the past few years will attest to the fact that I have known some beautiful women who think that tickling is fun and sexy.

I hope this helps.

Max

Why most people find tickling odd?

A cross between being tickled or tickling someone as a child. They don't take tickling seriously. Tickling while bound may turn alot of people off. Tickling doesn't get mention a whole lot these days. Media outlets have been flooded with foot fetishism and so foot fetishes have become popular. With sites like TMF, tickling is bound to find a larger audience.

Only speaking for myself

I am only speaking for myself here:

I have not met anyone who has a passion or desire if you will for Tickles or even Tickling🙁 Guess I have mingled in the wrong groups🙄 If I happened to mention my desire...🙁 it is not understand or thought to be odd or weird! That is one thing I love about TMF it is like no other forum I've come across😀
People being open...honest...and not afraid to share their thoughts and feelings.
🙂 I owe my very special friend for telling me about this forum! Thank you!

 

[ForgottenTcklr]

Wait,

You have no friends into tickling, but one of your friends showed you this site.

Anyway, this communitty does make this issue a lot easier to cope with.

 

[luv2bt&tickled]

My special friend is an online friend🙂 which I met through the yahoo messenger. On my profile I mention the fact that I tickling is a part of who I am.
I have joined groups in the past at yahoo, all of which was not for me.🙁 Most of them were more advertising than anything🙁
That is why I like TMF and on my home page at yahoo I put TMF logo on there🙂 I hope that they do not mind. I guess I should have asked first🙁


🙁 No Forgotten Tcklr, none of my friends know who this. I did tell my girl friend who I grew up with and we have remind friends through the years, she thinks I'm nuts! 🙂 But I'm a loveable nut😀

 

[ForgottenTcklr]

Well,

I am sure you are a lovable nut.

And thanks for clearing up my issue.

I am sure that in time she will not find your desires so "odd".
