I'm just curious. I hear so many people calling themselves or others tickle masters, the best of the best, unbreakable, unbeatable.

Besides giving yourself simply the title.... What do you think makes someone a true Master/Mistress of tickling?

Do you consider yourself a Master/ Mistress?

Do you even want to be?

How do you obtain such status?

This is strictly based on your opinion. There are no right or wrong answers.

I just wanted to start this thread before someone in the chatroom steals it. LOL And I will post my answers, and some of the answers I received in the chatroom, later.

PLEASE reply.

I realize this is not the POLL section, but I hope this post is allowed to stay because the written opinions of the members of TMF cover so much more than the poll. And more members are likely to be read and answer the question in the main tickling forum.

Thank you.
 
Sunrise, I'm not sure what you mean by Master/Mistress, but I'm guessing it has to do with S+M Bondage & Tickling play. If you're asking whether I'm dominant or submissive, I guess it would have to be the former, although I can also play the latter role if I CHOOSE to. Until I know more about this, though (I've never done this sort of thing before), I won't vote until I see other people reply to your post. You ask a good question which I don't know the answer to (or can't really give one to because of my inexperience) but I hope other people chime in. Shine on, Sunrise! 😀
 
To Elaborate

It’s strange. As we grow, change and improve who we are as individuals, as much as people say, they don’t care what others think of, its strange how we turn to others for affirmation of our success. I aspire to become a master teacher. Others would like to be or are already considered masters of their profession, but in this arena of tickling; there are those who are highly acclaimed as masters. How does this happen? How do you get there? What is a Master Tickler?

I know to become a master teacher; I must have years of successful teaching experiences. I must have the support of my peers and I must be a model as to what and who a true teacher should be. I must also be working diligently to do more and become more. Master teachers are constantly adding more knowledge, more education… the seminars… the workshops. You can’t just be the best, you have to work at it, and give all that you have to others so they may also obtain what you have someday.

I see this… MASTER TICKLER of LALA… and Mistress DOM of LALA. I am not doubting or putting down who people are, or who they claim they are, I just want to know what makes you what you are, aside from the label.

Are you a master tickler because someone tells you that you are great? Do you have notches in your stocks as to how many lees you have broken? Does a Master tickler even have to break his lees? How is it possible to be a master of tickling when there are sooo many different levels and types of tickling… and so many new techniques, ideas, so many different types of lees? Who can be master of them all?

Is it he who has the most toys wins? Or does the vote go to the one who has the most extricate and elaborate bondage? How about the one who has the prettiest girls in his videos? The one who causes the most lees to release in some form or fashion, does that count? Do these things make you a tickle master?

And does being called a “master of tickling” give one the right to tell another that he or she is not doing the tickling the best way, the most effective way, and coolest way or *GASP* the RIGHT WAY?

In asking some of the people in the room their thought on the Master label… one gentleman said, “I would venture to say many people in this room are more 'skilled' than the general public in this particular act just because of our interest.

A master is also a mindset, an understanding of the mutual respect, and fundamental concepts of what is required to master someone’s submission.

Secondly there is the difference between a master (in the skilled sense) and a master in the BDSM/Ds sense.

[You can] master in the sense of skill, not in the sense of BDSM master. There must be an objective point, but not perfection”

If someone in my eyes were to be called a master of tickling, I think this someone should have the ability to discern what each lee likes or dislikes. This person should know how to make the lee feel safe and comfortable. This person should know just how the lee will react and make them react in the desired way. Instead of focusing so much on breaking and destroying the lee (unless that is what the lee wants), a master should do whatever possible to give the lee the most pleasurable experience he/she has ever had.

This master should listen, keep his/her ears open; the master should see, stay aware, alert; and the master should learn, never assume he/she knows all.

Maybe the master or mistress would not be so concerned with the title as what it entails, You know, keep growing, changing and improving, instead of spouting… NANANANA I’m a master! BOW TO ME MORTAL FOOLS! KNEEL TO MY WAY of TICKLING!

Truthfully... I will NEVER call myself a tickle MISTRESS... There are certain aspects of tickling I don't want to master or even deal with. And although I love tickling, I certainly do not put so much time into it that I become this model of excellence for my peers.
Who can say that they know all about tickling? Who knows or does enough to be called master? Mistress? Can one be exhaustive of tickling and know the answer to every question... the twist of every technique, like a feather bound concordance? I don’t know if anyone can. Can I continue to grow, change and improve upon my tickling style/skills. Of course.

Thank you for reading and replying *giggle* to my thread. *HUGS*
The other opinions hopefully will find their way here.
Thanks everyone in the chatroom for listening and for answering my questions.

PS. Thanks Amk for answering. 🙂

By the way, the purpose of this thread is NOT to put down anyone. Just to hear what you think of the subject.
 
I guess I can't voice too much in the way of factual information on this subject, so I will instead come from my own personal thoughts and experiences.
I don't think that the mistresses/masters pretend to have it all figured out. Again, I haven't known too many dominants in my life, but those I have come across seem to be very people oriented and want nothing more than to fulfill the fantasies of those that they couple themselves with. They are also fulfilling a need, both for themselves and for their submissive. They enjoy the power high that comes from the relationship, and the submissive enjoys being controlled. How the mistress/master behaves largely depends on what the submissive is looking for (and vice versa). The fact of the matter is that the dominant/submissive roles work because BOTH parties want it to work. It is all very sympatico from what I can gather.

I do believe that there is a certain 'mastery' that is required of the dominant. And I think that the 'mastery' which is needed is largely a great imagination. To me, the imagination is the most important element because it's what keeps things interesting. (Of course, it also helps if they can tie an effective knot and verbally tease you into a giggling frenzy! 😉 ) Ahh....the joys of the creative process 🙂

I think you had it right Sunrise when you wrote:

"If someone in my eyes were to be called a master of tickling, I think this someone should have the ability to discern what each lee likes or dislikes. This person should know how to make the lee feel safe and comfortable. This person should know just how the lee will react and make them react in the desired way. Instead of focusing so much on breaking and destroying the lee (unless that is what the lee wants), a master should do whatever possible to give the lee the most pleasurable experience he/she has ever had."

And I think that most of the masters/mistresses out there probalby work hard to fit this role (although maybe I'm just being naive). I'm sure that there are those that are out there strictly for the ego power trips (but you will find self involved people in every walk of life). And I'm sure that those who are just in it for themselves will find that they will get fewer and fewer long term partners over time.

I think that the mistress/master role is nothing more than a part which is played in the game between the dominant and the submissive. I equate it to being an actor in the theater. When they are playing their role, they ARE the character. But once the lights go back on, they don't necessarily portray all the same attributes.

I dunno..... I've been rambling on for so long I've forgotten whether or not I answered your question Sunrise 😛 I hope I at least came close!

I just realized that I totally rambled on and didn't even answer most of the questions of your post Sunrise! Sorry :blush:

Let me try this again....
I think I said what I thought made a good mistress/master and how they could obtain that status, but didn't adress the other questions.

I am fairly submissive by nature, so I don't consider myself to be a mistress. However, if my partner asked me to play that role, I could probably muster enough creative energy and attitude to pull that off. I do see the draw to playing that role. There is a definite high that comes from making someone submit to your will (and I mean that in the most playful sense of the word, of course...LOL)
I enjoy thinking of new ways to bind my partner and new games to play. 😀 .....or should I say :firedevil

For me, the perfect tickling mistress would have both of the following qualities:

(1) She would be skilled in all of the practical aspects of tickling, both playful and torturous, with both fingers and implements of all kinds. This would have to include skill at bondage, since torturous tickling involves a restrained 'lee, who can not get away. She would have to be able to bind the 'lee securely, in a manner which does not cut off circulation or cause pain, so as to leave him or her immobile and open to the tickling sensations, for a considerable period of time.

(2) She would have to be caring, observant, and responsive to the 'lee, slowing or quickening the pace as needed, varying the locations and techniques, to keep the 'lee on the edge of his or her limits.

(2) is more important and more difficult than (1), in my opinion.

May I add that Mistress Zara is an excellent tickling mistress.😀

Wouldn't that be like people claiming to be slave ticklers? Actually, maybe it DOES make sense! :upsidedow
 
Tickle master. Tickle mistress. Does it really matter what you are called as long as everyone is having a good time? I think the title "Tickle master/mistress" is in the mind of the tickle partners who decide to lable their roles. A "Tickle master/mistress" to one, may not be to another. There is nothing wrong with calling yourself master or mistress, if that floats your boat, just don't think that everyone will believe it just because you say so. Even if the disbelievers submit to a test of your tickling prowess, there are some lees, and you know this is true, that will not give in to any form of tickling, no matter how good or skillful you are, or think you may be. If these lees do not call you master/mistress, well, you will have to live with that. Personally, I would have no problem addressing a ler as mistress in the heat of a particularly good session, and would not be at all put off at not being referred to as master. (Oh mighty evil one will do just fine.). In short. I don't think there really is a clear definition of what a tickle master or mistress is. I suppose that would have to be left up to the individual.
 
mistress master

He/she must trully understand how the human body works. The exact points of stimulus. A true Zen master of tickling. All the techniques. What works and what doesnt work. Personally, im into soft erotic tickling. I have no idea what i just said or what exactly what it means. Hope it helps you sunriseticklee. 🙄
 
I really appreciate the posts thus far. I hope that a few more people will share their opinions on the subject.

I especially like when DaisyCrazy said:

That seems very true to me. I possess a certain attitude and style when I am playing the part of the ticklee or the tickler. And to me, it is very much like acting. I must also admit that I love roleplay. The setting, the characters, the plot would be welcome additions to tickleplay for me. (including the costumes!!!!!) But it is hard enough to get involved in regular play. It would take FOREVER to get someone to do role play with me.

HINT! IF YOU ARE PLAYING ON THROWING A GATHERING COSTUME PARTY WITH THEMES.... OOOOOOOOO COUNT ME IN... THAT WOULD ROCK! Let's have a masqurade ball! FUN TIMES!!!!!!!!!

Ok... this post had nothing to do with my thread. LOL But I think that anyone who considers him/herself to be tickle experts... I am very curious to see a demo. (participate maybe?) I wonder what it would be like to be in the merciless hands of a Master/ Mistress. Once we all figure out what that really is. LOL 😛
 
HEY!!!!!!!! 235 VIEWS!!!! Ya'll could at least vote! It's anonymous! C'mon! Don't be shy!

I just voted for "No, and I am trying not to be." I decided that I could be both dominant and submissive, even if I'm more one than the other. Giving and receiving both appeal to me, and that applies to other things besides tickling, too! :devil: 😀
 
i'll answer the poll question

the question was are we the master/mistress of tickling in our domain? that's fairly easy, and straight forward, i'm really suprised more folks haven't answered it.
as for me, i'm the master of my domain. but that doesn't mean i don't enjoy being on the receiving end as much as possible!
do i go around calling myself a tickle master? hell no! it would take a real narsysis to say something like that.
can i tickle better than the average person? yes. (another) but!
that doesn't mean others aren't more skillfull than i. i can only be happy with some of the successes i've had in tickling a few ladies, that others weren't able to make laugh.
all the other stuff was just too much for my brain to get into tonight.

mistress and master

Personally, i am terrified of the word BONDAGE. It seems to dirty. Like i am doing a bad thing to someone. I ask alot of questions to the lee, it feels like i am doing an interview. I can surprise a 'Lee with something, but i dont want to make my tickle partner feel uncomfortable.
