Was it easy for people to torment you with uncontrollable laughter from tickling you?

It was for me. Apparently I was so ticklish that even when my childhood friend 'tickled' the soles of my shoes, I could feel it well enough to flinch a little. As a result, it became the weapon of choice for others to use against me when fooling around.

I am very ticklish. I do not like to be grabbed and tickled.

I'm also very ticklish. It's funny that you can't tickle yourself, yet if you've got an itch and scratch it, it often gets worse.

I used to love being tickled as a kid. About a year ago I developed a complete personality change. Now I'm not so keen on being tickled. I think I'm getting nervous about being tickled by people who fancy me. Yeuch...

Extremely!

My mother reports that she had trouble dressing me as a toddler because she couldn't touch my neck, throat and chin or else I'd duck and pretended to be a neck-less creature.

I can recall that I was more howling than laughing though, because it would send me into hysterics. Ultra-sensitive area.

I'm still ticklish there. Horrible.

Nope. Almost completely non-ticklish.

I was when I was little, but am almost completely non-ticklish now. People who don't believe me will try to tickle my feet or something, doesn't work.

I do occasionally get mistaken for ticklish though, since I often flinch at touch.

I'm still ticklish, and I don't see how getting older could make me no longer ticklish.

Yes I was and still am. I don't particularly enjoyed being tickled, but I do like when my feet are lightly tickled.

Actually, I'm so hypersensitive that I CAN

I pretend not to be ticklish so nobody will tickle me. But when they poke me in the sides or up above the knee caps I can barely keep in that smile. But I hate being tickled.

Tickling actually hurts me and was always a preferred method of torment by my older brother growing up. A little tickling makes me bust out in laughter, but even moderate tickling hurts me badly.

Yep very ticklish. For that reason, my dad could never teach me to do up a tie or let alone do one for me around my neck. The last time he tried, i kept giggling and recieved a slap across the face. Pfft mad parenting there old man! :x
