On another thread recently the point came up that it can be off-putting when you are watching a tickling video and the model talks about their first experience of tickling when they were a child. We want to focus on adult experiences, for very good reasons.
Thinking about why they talk about this, it seemed to me (if you can believe a word a model says on a video) that it can sometimes enhance the viewer's enjoyment of the experience if you know the ticklee's "tickling biography" a bit, and especially if you know what their first introduction to tickling has been. And almost inevitably this happened in their childhood.
But does it always? Are there people who are turned on to tickling by an event after they become adults? Is it always laid down in the brain during childhood, or can it happen later?
A question that has never occurred to me before. Any thoughts?
