Tickle Fetishes & MY tickle fetish - Taboo, desire and radical self-acceptance

About this episode

Reed shares her personal experiences with her tickle fetish, discussing its complexities and the importance of community and consent.

Tickling… but make it kinky? This week on Come Curious, Reed gets personal as she opens up about her own tickle fetish — what it is, how it feels, and why it’s so often misunderstood. From the difference between kinks and fetishes to the shame that can come with desires we don’t always choose, this episode is all about destigmatising pleasure and owning what turns you on. Reed dives into: – What a tickle fetish actually is – Why it can feel so intense (and confusing) – The language of the community (lur, lee, switch 👀) – How to find others safely – Why consent and communication are EVERYTHING Plus, how she’s building community through her own event Ticklethusiasm.
