In the sense of creating laugh.
It’s fun in the same way losing a game is fun. Its fine in moderation, horrible in excess or when one sided. It’s still sonething you want to avoid, but not so unpleasant that I woukd want the game made of it to stop.
People who don’t respect a hard no are not cool. But I also feel as though I am missing out when I’m with someone who I am close enough to tickle, but they won’t tolerate any tickling.
Agreed on the subject of tickling of the sides/hips. But light tickley touch on more sensitive skin (face, head, back… other places… NOT FEET) is amazing to me, almost to no end.
Oh god I hate it. I can’t explain why it makes me feel so angry. Sometimes if I stretch with my arms up my husband will give me a little playful gentle poke in the ribs and I feel so bad because it honestly makes me want to punch him. I have this horrible visceral reaction to it. It doesn’t make me laugh at all, just feels like nails down a chalk board and painful at the same time.
I hate that too.
Oh my god same, I’m not a serious person, but the first very serious things I asked my so years ago was not to poke me while stretching, tickle me under the feet or pits and not to stick her finger in my mouth while yawning. That’s peak me time.
I have a tickle phobia. My incredibly abusive ex boyfriend used it as a method of torture. It’s surprisingly effective. He would sit on top of me so I couldn’t escape and keep going and going. I just remember not being able to breathe and blind panic.
So yeah. Not a fan. Makes me have panic attacks.

Oh, I had no idea. Thank you.
A girl tied me up and tickled me last week

How much did it cost?

I hate it, I’m quite ticklish and growing up my family thought it was fun to tickle me because I would always laugh loud and Wrigley around, that’s only because it didn’t feel nice like I assume other people feel, it hurt a bit to be tickled and when it’s getting done for long enough it makes you cry, yeah tickling can fuck right off, I’ll fight you now if you try.
I hate it.
You laughed though.
Not a fan, usually it just feels like someone jabbing me in the ribs with their boney fingers.
I saw a BBC article that says that tickling produces a panic response in the brain, and laughter is a sign of submission to the aggressor.
I hate everything about tickling.
That all depends on how, and the context in which it’s done. My first girlfriend would spend hours tickling my back in between sessions - I never forgot those sunny days.
Now with more aggressive tickling - it is akin to a violent attack, and my father used to tickle me until I couldn’t stand it, and then push some more. Often it ended with me in tears… so with my son, sometimes I’ll grab a foot and start tickling it like mad - but I have a MUCH shorter cutoff time so that it ends with him laughing.
So it’s not simple - but consent is a huge issue.
as someone who is ticklish af, its funny for all the first few times but if you keep pushing it im going to be ANGRY WHILE I LAUGH
It’s something many people take too far/do too long. A quick tickle on the side or something is a cutesy playful thing to do. Tickling every chance you get, or tickling for a long time is obnoxious. Someone shouldn’t have to yell or smack you to get you to stop.
I’m not responsible for your broken face.
Mom used to wake me up in the morning by pinning me down and tickling me, You can imagine the amount of flailing you would do going from a deep sleep to basically being assaulted. One time I somehow managed to kick her in the nose, it ended up broken.
Dont even feel bad.

Not a fan I very much dislike it. I used to not be able to control myself but after many years of people exploiting my weakness I can now withstand it and be in control for a solid 10s I use that 10s to attack the person tickling me.
Can’t say I have much of an opinion at all, but seeing this post is reminding me of that documentary where the guy was commissioning videos of young dude wrestlers tickling each other, and he played it off like it wasn’t, but of course it was for sex reasons
