The victim, usually restrained, of tickle
torture, either with consent by a tickle top for exercise or sexual gratification or by others as torture to obtain information or for sadistic pleasure.
If very ticklish the "bottom" suffers
acute agony from the body's automatic reflexes, such as hysterical laughter, screaming,
crying, muscle spasms, urination, ejaculation, and even convulsions and loss of consciousness. Common in
BDSM, (bondage sado-masochism) practice, the tickle bottom should be in
good physical health because severe tickling can cause strokes and seizures.
