Q&A for How to Tickle Someone

You can say, "Let's get a massage! I'll give you one first, then you give me a massage in the same way." Then start tickling the person. Most of the time they will tickle you back.

Any feather will do. Of course, if it's a long feather, you'll be able to tickle from a safer distance!

Spread-eagled or with hands above their head and their bare feet immobilized is a pretty vulnerable position.

Blunt nails, not longer than the tip of your finger, are best used for tickling. Sharp, long nails could scratch your victim instead of tickling him, resulting in pain.

Small, friendly tickles work best if you're trying to be a flirt. Make sure you know the person well beforehand, so she won't think you're crazy.

Start a tickle fight and then just keep trying different areas to see what works.

Ask your parents first. If they say it's okay then go ahead. If she doesn't like it, though, you should stop.

It makes the skin more slippery.

I personally wouldn't, but I tried it on my friend once and she did wake up. I guess it depends on their ticklishness and whether they're a light or deep sleeper.

Only if you ask them politely first.

You could drop small, subtle hints or you could just flat out ask her to do it. The second option would be quicker and easier but possibly a little embarrassing.

A light and gentle touch signals nerves in your body. The nerve sends signals to your brain, and the immediate reaction is laughing.

If they get mad, make sure to stop. Don't tickle them if they aren't going to enjoy it.

Most people have a tickle spot. Try a few different areas to see which one works best.

Some people have nerves that are more sensitive to tickling.

It really depends on your existing relationship and how/whether you normally touch each other. You certainly cannot do this with a stranger or someone you don't normally touch.

Everybody's different. Some people are very ticklish, some aren't, but neither gender is more ticklish than the other.

You could drop small, subtle hints or you could just flat out ask someone to do it. You could also try tickling them first, but make sure you have their consent, because not everyone wants to be touched or tickled and it's important to respect their personal space.

Some people just aren't ticklish. (Though it's possible you just haven't found the right spot yet.) But no, there is no way you can make him ticklish.

If she allows you to, then yes. You should never do something like that to a woman if she hasn't consented.

I don't think it will.

No, no better. Anyone can be a good tickler.

That's not something that you can really do with tickling.

You can't really improve your tickle sensitivity, but you could try to put baby oil or lotion on your ticklish spots and have someone tickle you and see what happens.

Grab their arms and put them over their head with one hand. Use your other hand to tickle them. Make sure you stop if they tell you to stop.

Yes, most parents tickle their children as a way to bond and make them laugh. If you really dislike this, tell your parents that it seriously upsets you and ask them to stop.

Arm or leg locks. Or just wrap your legs around them and use your hands to tickle them.

Well, it depends on how close you are. If you're pretty close, you could probably give her sides a light tickle every once in a while. Lots of people don't like to be tickled, however, and find it intrusive.

What age or gender someone is has nothing to do with it. It depends on the individual. Some are, some are not. You won't know unless you try.

Ask first, then use rope and a chair.
