One person’s stress nightmare is another’s pleasure. While some of us cannot fathom the idea of anyone coming within ten nautical miles of our sensitive feet or armpits, others are unequivocally excited by the prospect of a no-mercy tickle attack. Join us, if you will, at the intersection of terror and laughter as we dive down the laugh-filled vortex that is tickle play.
…or knismolagnia, if you’re talking eroticism. This is the technical term for when someone is aroused by tickling or being tickled (thank you, Daily Dot, for the overview). So far, so good. But what you may thing like, say, spanking: Some like it hard; some like it soft. It can be a playful slap or the unforgiving force of a wooden paddle. (Is anyone else feeling all hot and bothered right now?)
