LOL Ayla and Q !
After a very nice lunch out, I decided to wear one on my toe
to the pool! Funny thing was I was with my Mom and sister and another female friend... They all know I pay extra special attention to my feet not necessarily what happens to me when tickled there !
Anyway.... I was laying on my lounge chair, just after putting sunscreen lotion on the bottoms of my feet lol and my mother says , "Donna you have something on the bottom of your "beautiful" toes, How could that happen!" LOL She was making fun of me I think! 😉 So I said, "I put a smiley face there just to see who noticed! They all laughed and said only you ....I said, "Not only me, I know about 4000 other people that would do the same thing, there are just NOT enough chairs here for me to invite them all over!! LOL After about 15 minutes baking in the sun...I just had to swim... Hope the kids in the pool liked it because it was quickly disappearing! LOL
Laundry ~ Q and swimming... hmm guess we better get to the tatoo parlor Quick !
Anyone else try it ?
So if you saw one of these smileys, tell me what you would say to the person wearing it....if you like to share ........

a revolution
These are good ideas for a symbol, and the flag feather was one also, but other people may have one, who aren't into tickling.
Basically, if you walk around with a pin in the shape of a swastika, after about 1930, even though it has occult meanings, people will assume you are a Nazi. If you walked around in the past with a crucifix, people will assume you are a Christian. Though today, many people wear the crucifix as a decoration.
We will have something like that, but people won't wear it as decoration, because they won't know what it is! AND, we can have more than one symbol. The Germans had quite a few, for example, (the iron cross, a skull design, the swastika,) Christians have hundreds. There are numerous symbols for love.
But if you have the symbol of a Free-Mason embedded in back of your car, (which I've seen only ONCE) you are a Free-Mason. No one will accidentally get one of those. If you have a symbol for the Knights of Columbus, well, you can't get that at the mall.
This will mean that if you see someone with that symbol, there are a member of this forum, i.e. one of the elite in teh tickling world. If you find someone who is a ticklephile, like TIB did recently, then you introduce them to this place, just like Free-Masons and other groups find new members. Then, they will find out the symbol. And in this way, we will solve the whole lament "Oh, I wish I knew who was interested in tickling...." There will be people out there who are, but don't know about us, but hopefully they will, and won't have to feel alone anymore.
I believe that we have a power that few have, and that is why were can be classified as a secret society, and a powerful one at that. Each and everyone of us has a personal and unique power.
Tickling.
I mean, think about it. We can incompacitate anyone, and our way is the ONLY way where they are not hurt. Some one is bothering you, you could hit them, punch them, hurt them. But they will be injured and hate you. But you tickle them, and then they'll listen when you say go away. No one will expect that.
You want to stop two people from fighting? You could pull them apart and get punched in the face, or have to punch them. That would hurt either you or them, and usually both. But you and someone else jump in there and start tickling both of them, well, that will be out of the blue, will provide plenty of entertainment among those egging the fight on, and will most probably end the fight, with no one hurt.
Soemone won't let you pass, what do you do? Get mad, curse, hit them, push them aside? Nasty violence, who needs it?! You have the power no one else has. Just tickle them out of your way!
And obviously you can use your power for happiness. Mainly it will be used for happiness. Someone is having a bad day, is sad, is depressed, or just plain bored. Offer to tickle them (you can even tell them you "have the power of ticling") and if they take you up on the offer, you'll both be happy.
This whole thing is a revolution, my way of answering and solving most of the problems encountered and mentioned by members of this community and society.
-I wish tickling were more accepted.
-I wish people didn't think we were weird.
-I wish there was more tickling related stuff out there, especially in the fetish producers. More variety, better quality, etc.
...and mainly, -I wish I belonged and felt needed and important and accepted.
The folks here have accepted the new poeple with open arms, so we need to go forward and spread the joy.

I don't want to rain on someone's parade, alas, I have a few drops that might be said. Sadly, in today's world, if you tickle some stranger to get past them, to incompacitate them, even if you're trying to get two people to stop fighting, there's a good chance you'll be looking at a lawsuit and fast. I guess what I'm trying to say is, guilds are great and are more fun if taken a bit seriously, but only to a certain extent and a certain degree.
As for symbols, I still say a wolf with wings would be cool. In many cultures, wolves command honor and respect. Another idea might be a cresant moon with a star inside it, a crystal moon with a sapphire or amethyst star would be my suggestion.
Names by my book, symbols as well, should always be awe inspiring. Risata di Cielo speaks of mystery to me, while it still retains some meaning. Or perhaps the Quills of Venus? Something that if discovered, would still not reveal our motives.
Well, enough of my nincompoopery for now. Take care everyone.

right...
You're right, so I need to elaborate on this. Unless someone asks you to tickle them, the "part two" of tickling, you would only use it as a defense. You go out and just start tickling someone, you must face whatever consequences happen.
Unfortunately, for us guys, the women will be able to use this more than the men. I doubt many men will have a problem with a beautiful woman annoying them, so you may never use tickling except for fun.
But, now for the girls, that's a different story. A lot of girls aren't as strong as guys, that's just a reality, and have a hard time fighting off annoying guys. Some guy's putting the moves on you, and you tell him no, if he doens't go away you're looking at a very hard time. If he's bigger than you, you can't just beat him up, because he may be stronger than you. And if you beat him up, he may sue.
So, just tickle him to the floor. He'll be humiliated, and his friends will laugh at his weakness, and since tickling is out of the blue, he will be shocked and you will have an effect on him.
If a guy is giving a girl a hard time, and she uses tickling as a defense, she has the upper hand in court, I would think. She could tell the judge she had the option of punching, hitting, or otherwise inflicting medical damage on him, and by her tickling him, saved tax payer court costs and hospital costs and a lengthy assault lawsuit. BUT, more importantly, she's a girl, he's a big guy, (or small annoying guy, or whatever) and HE was harassing HER. He was the bad guy, she was only defending herself. And rather than use force, she just made him eat crow and humiliated him in front of his friends or in the middle of the streets.
Obviously this would only be used in non-serious situations. If someone was giving you serious problems, tickling wouldn't be the answer. If you are a guy, you will probably be facing hassle at the hands of another guy. Most guys, me included, refuse to tickle another guy. We'd punch him, or get in a fight, or call the cops, or get a gun, depending on the seriousness of the circumstance. In a criminal case, tickling wouldn't have the force to do much, because tickling is temporary. You couldn't expel drug dealing gang members from a neighborhood by tickling, nor could you repel Mafia thugs, because they'd just shoot you. I have yet to run into a situation where I needed tickling as a defense, but I've used it a few times to get people out of my way. (I'm talking, in all my 26 years, like 2 or 3 times.) A girl jokingly stands in front of you, "ha, you can't pass." I give her a quick tickle, she laughs and gets out of my way. I haven't done that since I was in college.
Obviously we'll have rules later on, but here's a few:
-No tickling minors, as is being debated now in another post. That seems to be almost universally agreed upon here. Those who break this rule will have to face the consequences on their own. In fact, I don't even know why that come up every now and then, because everyone already knows the answer. If they're looking for some form of okay from us, they better get used to getting the hell out of here. We don't want you.
-No non-consensual tickling as offense, as is being debated also in another post right now. Again, you must face whatever consequences come your way if you try that.
-It can only be used, when necessary, as a defense.
-Of course, if someone seeks you out for a tickling, and wants one, the you are free to tickle them to their desire.
The wolf symbol is a good idea, as is the name. Keep working on it. (and some rules, as well.)

please corect me if i'm wrong, but...
...isn't the cresent moon, and star symbol, used by the moslem world??? do we want to be taken for agent of the various whack jobs running the moslem middle east?! as pretty as the design might sound, i think it's use could be problematic.

I haven't seen the cresant moon with a star before, well rats, I thought it would look rather cool. Kind of a dreamer type thing, we all know that the cresant moon is created by the earth casting shadow upon the moon, but it would be cool if the moon actually just changed shape. Hence the star inside the cresant, but since it's already a symbol we couldn't very well steal it.
Well.... perhaps a cresant moon with a cloud running through it...kind of dumb though. I'm out of ideas. A swan surrounded by 16 roses? I'm not too sure I'd be comfortable wearing that though...kind of girly? I hope that doesn't offend anyone, I appologize if it does. I guess my best idea is the flying wolf.
I've got some different name ideas, feel free to combine them and rip them apart in any way.

....I'm out for the moment, perhaps I'll suggest more later.

I just read this entire thread, and it's got me thinking. A part of me loves the idea of being able to identify fellow ticklephiles, and a part of me thinks there is no way this idea can work. I started a thread last week asking if multi-colored toenails was a signal of a ticklephile, so obviously, I think there is merit in having some sort of identification process. Something that could be worn as a charm on a necklace, or a ring, or a pin, or a tie clip, or a hair clip, or on a charm bracelet. As a man, I'm never going to decorate my fingernails with symbols, or get a tattoo of any kind, but I might wear a tie clip or a t-shirt that includes the symbol if it's not too conspicuous.
As far as creating a legitimate society with memberships and rules and charters, I don't think that's where we want to go with this. Do we really want people asking questions about this, or are we just looking for a way of identifying each other in public? I'm not interested in fund drives or town meetings, but I think it would be great to be in line somewhere and catch someone else wearing the 'secret symbol'.
So I vote to not bother trying to come up with catchy names and slogans. Let's decide on a symbol, something that is inconspicuous enough not to draw unwanted attention, but unique and easily identifiable to other ticklephiles. Once a symbol is agreed upon, maybe the Moderators will stick it on this web page somewhere. Maybe everyone else who hosts a tickling related web page will include it somehow too. Let's get the symbol associated with tickling in a big way. And once that happens, then we need someone to step up to the plate and start manufacturing items of all sorts that include the symbol.
I think this is a decent idea Mabus. I'm going to have to keep my eye on this thread.

Actually young man, when the Earth causes a shadow to fall on the moon, said heavenly body is said to be in "lunar eclipse" because it reflects Earth light and turns dark red. The crescent moon is caused by the unlit part facing away from the sun and thus suffering from a classic lack of astral lumination. Was there ever life on the moon? WE SIMPLY DON'T KNOW! 😀😀😀😀😀😀😀
Okay, I've finished being boring now.😛

Damn, I gotta look at profiles more often. And here I thought there weren't any people in south louisiana into tickling, either. lol I live in Chauvin, right now. Way down in south louisina. But no females here into tickling, da**it! arrgh! lol
Maybe we could get more people in this state people into tickling by riding a float at Mardi Gras and tossing people big, stiff mardi gras colored feathers? lol

hey all,
to jason, we chatted a bit a while ago, but not in this forum. I didn't know if you joined or not. We'll have to start ourselves a dialogue. I was living in Baton Rouge for the last 3 years, but now I'm moving up to Shreveport. So I have to restart searching up there now. North Louisiana and East Texas.
I've always tried to enact tickling during Mardi Gras (lots of girls reaching up in the air, and no, not on random strangers - i have a little sence of decorum), since as you know, damn near anything can happen. You never know.
Also, I agree with laughter_n_love. I haven't been out in public lately (busy with hella lotta work), but I think I'll use the smiley face finger. Don't they make band-aids with yellow smileys on them?
This is gonna take serious development, and once we decide on something, we gotta find a way to disseminate it to every ticklephile out there (or as many as we can). Keep it coming.

Speak For Yourself..
And stop being so full of yourself. We're no more secret than any other group. PLUS everyone who knows me knows I'm into tickling. So it's hardly a secret. If ya'll would grow some balls and come out into the open you wouldn't have to worry about this secret society crap and you'd probably like yourself a HELL of a lot more. Like I do. I LOVE me and every day I love myself even more.

We are a secret society. How many of you knew the forum existed before you stumbled upon in in whatever way you did? Ask anyone outside of this place, even in the fetish community, and they will have no clue. So, we're secret in the sense that no one knows about us, not that we have to intentionally keep ourselves secret.
Two, we're not loud and in your face like gays or animal rights activists or the religious right or pick your group. A lot of gays, for example (not all, but enough) feel they must be in your face and gay, the have to be loud, they want parades, and movies and television shows about being gay. They demand that firefighters march in there parades even though they may not want to. They demand to walk in parades like the St. Patricks day parade under the gay banner, and when told no, have a fit. What they were missing is that they CAN walk in the parade, but not under a gay banner. They must have a St. Patrick's day banner. The bondage fetishes didn't ask to march under the Bondage banner.
And that is how we are a secret. We don't advertise, we don't demand that tickling be taught in schools, we don't shove it down anyone's throat, or any of that. If you wish to be a part of our group, you really have to search us out, or be invited by someone here if you are lucky enough to find one of us. (ie: TIB finding that girl who liked tickling on teh net.) Hell, I'd say we're harder to find than the Free Masons or any other secret society out there.
Travel the net whenever you get a chance. Check out any Foot fetish page. They will list literally, every kind of fetish you can imagine, and some you never even knew existed. But they never mention tickling! The vast majority, I'm talking 90% or higher, mention every other fetish, except tickling. So, even among the members of the fetish community, we seem to be a secret.
And we don't need to brag about it and advertise it. We're happy with who we are, so don't feel it necessary to force everyone to accept us, like every activist group in America does. When you call attention to yourself, you also call bad attention with the good. That's why it's good we are a secret. The gays are loud, and the gay haters are louder and grwowing. It sucks, hatred sucks, but that's life. There aren't many tickling haters out there, hopefully, and if we stay secret, and only let in those who are ineterested in us, or are actual ticklephiles themselves, it will hopefully stay that way.
I, too, am from South Louisiana, and can tell you there are very few ticklephiles here. I know of zero, not one person around my area. BUT, I could be wrong. We're here in the heart of the Bible belt, teh whole, "If you're any way diffeent from the norm, you are evil and deserve to be persecuted" area.
If you can tell people you love tickling, hey great, more power to you. But you are the lucky one, Neutron.
I assume no one down here is into tickling, because no one down here even talks about fetishes, ANY fetish, except to laugh at it as wierd, or look down on it as being evil. BUT, I may be wrong. There could be people I see every day who are inteersted, who are members of this forum, and I don't even know. They won't say because they're in the same situation I am in. They don't want to be judged unfairly. When they see the symbol, and they'll be able to take great comfort in the fact that they're not alone.
Basically, we need an easier way to quietly identify ourselves to other ticklephiles, that doesn't blatantly give it away, is only understandable to us who are here, and can't be mistaken. We could say purple shoes, or something, but if someone has on purple tennis shoes, or purple heels, they probably just like the color purple. A lot of people use orange pens, too, who don't like tickling. That idea was a good one, but wouldn't work.
You see someone who has on a bracelet with the symbol, or earrings, or tattoo, or pin, or whatever, and you'll know for sure.

They demand to walk in parades like the St. Patricks day parade under the gay banner, and when told no, have a fit. What they were missing is that they CAN walk in the parade, but not under a gay banner. They must have a St. Patrick's day banner. The bondage fetishes didn't ask to march under the Bondage banner.
And that is how we are a secret. We don't advertise, we don't demand that tickling be taught in schools, we don't shove it down anyone's throat, or any of that. If you wish to be a part of our group, you really have to search us out, or be invited by someone here if you are lucky enough to find one of us. (ie: TIB finding that girl who liked tickling on teh net.) Hell, I'd say we're harder to find than the Free Masons or any other secret society out there.
Travel the net whenever you get a chance. Check out any Foot fetish page. They will list literally, every kind of fetish you can imagine, and some you never even knew existed. But they never mention tickling! The vast majority, I'm talking 90% or higher, mention every other fetish, except tickling. So, even among the members of the fetish community, we seem to be a secret.
And we don't need to brag about it and advertise it. We're happy with who we are, so don't feel it necessary to force everyone to accept us, like every activist group in America does. When you call attention to yourself, you also call bad attention with the good. That's why it's good we are a secret. The gays are loud, and the gay haters are louder and grwowing. It sucks, hatred sucks, but that's life. There aren't many tickling haters out there, hopefully, and if we stay secret, and only let in those who are ineterested in us, or are actual ticklephiles themselves, it will hopefully stay that way.
I, too, am from South Louisiana, and can tell you there are very few ticklephiles here. I know of zero, not one person around my area. BUT, I could be wrong. We're here in the heart of the Bible belt, teh whole, "If you're any way diffeent from the norm, you are evil and deserve to be persecuted" area.
If you can tell people you love tickling, hey great, more power to you. But you are the lucky one, Neutron.
I assume no one down here is into tickling, because no one down here even talks about fetishes, ANY fetish, except to laugh at it as wierd, or look down on it as being evil. BUT, I may be wrong. There could be people I see every day who are inteersted, who are members of this forum, and I don't even know. They won't say because they're in the same situation I am in. They don't want to be judged unfairly. When they see the symbol, and they'll be able to take great comfort in the fact that they're not alone.
Basically, we need an easier way to quietly identify ourselves to other ticklephiles, that doesn't blatantly give it away, is only understandable to us who are here, and can't be mistaken. We could say purple shoes, or something, but if someone has on purple tennis shoes, or purple heels, they probably just like the color purple. A lot of people use orange pens, too, who don't like tickling. That idea was a good one, but wouldn't work.
You see someone who has on a bracelet with the symbol, or earrings, or tattoo, or pin, or whatever, and you'll know for sure.
Thanks for the info Jim, shows how much I know about science, eh? I'm more of a music man myself.
Neutron, do you ever have something nice to say? I know you claim to be neutral to everyone, but you certainly do not come across that way. Would it kill you to lend a kind word now and then? Or if nothing else, to not throw an insult. Last I checked, I have balls, though I certainly don't love myself every day. Whatever makes you happy I suppose.
I will tickle people in public, but I've never told anyone why I'm allured to tickling. I'm just not sure it would do anything to improve my life. I'm happy right now, I don't hide from people, I just don't jump down the street with a sign that says, "I enjoy tickling females." Also, if I saw a girl wearing a symbol we decided on, I would be more prone to talking to her out of the blue. I don't think we're planning to take over the world, open underground gambling rings, or manipulate a government, it's just a way to identify someone who might be interested in tickling.
Personally, I like the idea, and if I could, I'd give Mabus a big high five.

Some folks like societies, and joining things, and that's fine. But please don't compare ticklers and ticklees to gays and animal rights activists. Unlike gays, we're not denied jobs, or beat up on the street, or have any history of being outlawed and persecuted by the authorities. And unlike animal rights activists, we are simply sexual deviants. I just don't see the comparison. The idea that there is any boggles my mind. *wandering away, sipping coffee, mumbling* don't get it...I just don't get it...think I'll just think about...fuzzy slippers....yeah, fuzzy slippers....😎

a symbol
Darn I thought we might have one by now. I know we talked about this for a while. One thing, it needs two symbols, one for ler and for the lee. Maybe knot (obvious pun by Sir) but I shall let the creative juices flow and see what I can come up with. Lot's of suggestions thus far though.

Let me clarify a bit. America is an amalgam of differences, because of our freedom. But most of those people don't understand fredeom. This, I believe, is the biggest problem in the USA. I can say whatever I want, or read whatever I want, or print in newspapers or books whatever I want. Now, the problem when I'm presenting my viewpoint, is that other people can come along and print whatever they want, also, and that totally disagree with what I say.
I understand this. Most people don't, so try to stifle or censor the opposing viewpoint. (In other countries, throughout history, silencing dissent has been standard governmental policy!) Kevin Smith makes "Dogma," and instead of his opponents staying home and boycotting it quietly, which is how people in a free society show their dislike for something, instead they send him death threats and protest and try to ban his movie. These people don't know what America is, and never will.
The Religious Right hates the gays, the vegetarians hate the meat eaters, etc.
Now, how these groups are all connected is that they all want to push, and almost force their viewpoints on everyone. They want everyone to think just like them, and can't accept the fact that people have the right to believe differently. They despise dissent. After they see that 100% of the country doesn't welcome them with open arms, they become livid and all of these groups start acting crazy. Their minds blow a circuit because people are still disagreeing with them.
All these groups start taking on a massive inferiority complex, to "combat the oppression" of the opposition.
The gays wear wierd ass clothing, and need huge parades to vindicate their existence. The vegetarians now want to start placing higher taxes on meat and high fat foods, so that everyone will be vegetarian. The Religious Right wants to strip gays of their civil rights and have them as lower class citizens. They want to make kids pray in school to make sure they join their respective churches later in life. The animal rights activists throw blood or paint on people wearing fur coats, and break into labs. Abortion opponents bomb clinics and are now publishing photographs of women who get abortions on internet web pages and calling them murderers.
This is a big mess. But we here, and, in fact, the vast majority of the fetish community, but mainly we, the ticklers, are quiet. Our America would not be filled with the sounds of protest, but with laughter. We don't need parades, or to be shouting from rooftops, or going into schools and demanding that acceptance to ticklephiles be expected from students. When we want new tickling material in the areas of the web where there is none, (probably because they never even thought about it,) we ask politely.
If this takes off, and it will, one day one of us will be walking in the mall, or take a vacation, or meet someone we already know, and see that they, too, are wearing the symbol for tickling. There will be quiet recognition, and only later will they tickle each other. (It's not like Fight Club, which is not a bad comparison, but we CAN talk about tickling.) It's more, people who aren't into tickling could care less, we above all other groups out there understand this, so that's why we will always be classified as secret. I have no interest in leather. People used to make jokes about some girl wearing leather, and if a girl was wearing leather pants, I'd see people getting excited. I had no clue, and only years later did I realize that that was a fetish. Yet, I see someone waering leather, and it does absolutely nothing for me. So, the leather fetishes are a secret society to me, if you want to look at it the other way. The signs they use, (if any) and the things they do and talk about are a mystery to me.
And, evilqueen, on to the we're not persecuted by the authorities, well, okay, 1.) we're not persecuted because they don't know we exist. That is good. IF they knew we existed, they would persecute us. Trust me. There is always someone around to oppress. I know hands down the Religious Right would. They invoke the name and Sodom and Gomorrah, there all time favorite cities, and the persecution would begin.
In a future post, I will talk about direct persecution that defies the constitution of our country, but is a law and can end this forum all together. (It's called the Obscenity Crimes Act.)

Are You THAT Ignorant.....
Of the Constitution???? I suggest READING IT. It specifically creates a branch of government THE SUPREME COURT, which has a sole purpose in INTERPRETING what the Constitution MEANS INCLUDING ALL Amendments. In other words if the Supreme Court says pornography is not protected by the First Amendment then in FACT it's making a Constitutional Interpretation. ANY ruling the Supreme Court makes is by default Constitutional. Damn 🙁 Read the founding fathers papers. The First Amendment was NEVER intended to protect your perceived right to whack off to porn. It's SOLE purpose was to protect citizens from being persecuted by the government for speaking out against that very same government. Learn some history little fellow. AND take the time to learn what the Constitution REALLY says. By the looks of it, you've never read the document front to back.
