What's the secret to getting the knees?

[Nevordan1]

This is the only thing I cannot do right. Sometimes it works, sometimes I can try forever and get no reaction. What the hell's the secret method here?

It's not really a secret. It depends on the person. Personally, I can get my knees squeezed any way you can think of and never really care. Wiggle your fingers at the back and I giggle. *shrug* It just varies from person to person.

Well I can tell ya what I do.

On the front I squeeze above the knee the cap. You are really trying to get the lower part of the thigh muscle I think. You can also scratch above the knee cap (lower part of thigh muscle) too.

On the back I scratch in the middle right behind the knee. On the back I also put pressure on the two tendons of the back of the knee. There is one on each side. I run my finger over it with pressure. Just act like you are tickling somebody's ribs, the only difference is that there is just one "rib" to run you finger over instead of many stacked together. You can also squeeze it too, but it can't be the same squeeze you do for somebody's tummy. When you "squeeze" it you are really just using your finger and thumb to move over the tendon, just like with tickling ribs.

Also, I find that scratching (on the front or back) works better if the lee has some kind of pants on. The pressure stuff works better directly on the skin.

All this stuff works on Meka. None of it might work for you because as Sammi said "it just varies from person to person", but good luck! haha

Hm... this particular person, for the most part, does not react to knee tickling. I'm persistant, though, and sometimes I get lucky and they're sent wailing. I just can't figure out what I'm doing right when I get it right. The back of the knee works every time, go figure.

I see Sammi's "it varies from person to person" but I will raise her an "it also varies from time to time" which is why you probably are able to get this particular person some times but not others. What that right time is, I have no idea but when you find out, let me know! 🙂

BTW, my record height for a subject jumping in the air post-"Squishy" (I always playfully exclaim "SQUISHY" as I squeeze the knees) was about 2 feet. How high have you made someone jumped? Or have jumped? 😀😀😀

Yes I agree it does vary from person to person.But there's one technique that a few people have used on me and it makes me squirm...kinda hard to describe,but will try my best....they squeeze my kneecap for a few seconds then make their hand like a claw around the kneecap wiggling their fingers slightly,putting on some pressure to begin with,then as they spread out their fingers from the claw shape they ease off on the pressure.
