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.
