Wow, this really opened up quite a discussion.
I don't think the original post was meant to be mean in any way. We are all into tickling in different ways and for different reasons. Some like upperbody, some like feet. Some are 'lers, some are 'lees, some are both. Some like intense tickling, some prefer more playful, gentle tickling. And for some, tickling is sexual, for some it is not.
One great thing about this forum, is that we are all welcome here, no matter what our individual preferences are. For me, for example, I am strictly a 'ler, and prefer intense, primarily upper body tickling. And it is VERY sexual.
Ayesha mention that "it's the reaction from the ticklee that's important, not how they look." And for some, that's true. But not for all of us. Without making any value judgements about what is attractive and what is not, for me, I have to find the 'lee attractive, or I'm just not interested in tickling her. That does not make me right or wrong, it is just the way I am.
Some have raised hypothetical arguments about blindfolds, or attractive, non-ticklish people, vs. unattractive ticklish ones, etc. but for me that misses the point. We each have our own tastes and preferences, and we should not try to question whether others' preferences are or aren't logical.
