This thread reminded me of a peculiar recurring [day]dream I've had in recent months, sprouting most likely from a sharper turn toward a 'lee-ish phase (seriously, seems to wax and wane like phases of the moon, though prolonged). It basically involved my being kidnapped and taken to a private little dungeon containing a half-dozen other kidnapped men, all of whom are trapped in all manners of bondage and tickle-torture, the idea being a sort of reverse-harem operated by a sadistic domineering mad scientist.
I recall the most...well, "exciting" part of said daydreams being the initiation into said dungeon - and suddenly hearing a cacophony of male laughter and pleading hit me like a wall as soon as the door opens. The effect immediately knocks me into full submissive mode, alongside the dread and anticipation that one would experience in that given scenario.
So I guess, in my case, hearing ticklish male laughter acts as a sort of...trigger, I guess? Even if I were the one administering the tickling in an m/m scene, something tells me I wouldn't help but "feel" as if I were the one actually being tickled or dominated. Empathic to male laughter, I guess it would be considered? And yeah, I do find some forms of male laughter absolutely cute, even being a guy myself. :happy:
