>the "community" is full of autistic freaks.
Seconded. I've attended multiple tickle gatherings/munches IRL over the last few years as well as organized some by myself and can attest that while not everybody over here is autistic as fuck, most attendees fall into "boomers who pay prostitutes to tickle them and are proud of it" or "extremely awkward HomunculusLover/KellyLynnSage cringe level folks" category. And believe me, a drunk tickle orgy right in a bar is the opposite of "sexy"... well, unless you're into that, but judging by typical scenarios of tickling content, I doubt it has anything in common with most ticklefags' fantasies.
Notable exception are couples, they're usually chill asf because one or both parties had the balls to confess their
oh-so-freakishly-disgusting desires to the other one who happened to be understanding.
Some more insights:
- The amount of mature married men who are too shy to let their wife know of their fetish and even opting to pay other girls for sessions instead is astonishing. The amount of married men whose wives disapprove of tickling is significant too. Moral of the story:
don't be a chicken and tell your girl you want her to count your ribs or let you scratch her soles ASAP. If she outright refuses and your relationship is in early stage, it's up to you to evaluate your priorities. If she berates/making fun of you, she is not for you. Applies to girls who are shy to express as well. In general, extreme shyness is the scourge of tickling community — those who attend gatherings are in like top 5% of the bravest ones lmao.
- The more a ticklefag spergs about le consent, boundaries, being extremely shy to the point of being unable to say the word "tickle", separating tickling and sex etc, the more likely they'll break their expressed beliefs when in the right condition (aka drunk), will tickle strangers, engage in aforementioned "orgies" and so on. This is especially true for those Tumblr-type girls, y'know.
And they tend to do a 180 and go batshit insane once they reach like mid 30s.
- Straight female lers looking for relationship are often having a hard time coz there are not so much
decent male lees and in terms of engaging vanillas it is much easier to engage a girl than a guy. I know multiple married women of different ages whose husbands can't stand being tickled but allow them to seek a female lee (sometimes even male)
- Tickling and BDSM are (almost) mutually exclusive, which, to be short, is due to different neural mechanisms of eliciting pleasure from pain and cocho. That's why tickling is a hard limit for so many subs.
Finally, I've might shat on boomers too much in this post but it's worth mentioning that those of them who are happy with their partner usually don't have a desire to attend IRL gatherings anymore, especially if there are not a lot of their old friends among other attendees.
