Why You Can’t Tickle Yourself?

[kburra]

Try it!

It made me laugh, but because I felt silly trying!

Have you tried lightly rubbing the inside of your arm (near the wrist). I'm very ticklish there. Still chuckling!

Ever tickle someone else......that's NOT ticklish?

......awkward

I'm actually not ticklish. I have no idea why, but you can tickle my sides or my feet til you turn blue and I won't laugh.

On the other hand, babies *can* tickle themselves because nobody has told them yet that they *can't* tickle themselves.....thus they CAN tickle themselves. Just think what mankind could accomplish if we never learned what we COULDN'T do.

Only ticklish on the bottoms of my feet, and my ears, nothing if I try to tickle myself lol

I'll try what @palides2021 said and maybe a couple of other things and report back.

I guess I have developed a "thick skin" because I used to be ticklish, but not no more. Misa can try to tickle me on the ribs and bottoms of my feet....nothin.

I never lost being ticklish from childhood. 20 years ago, when I started to have varicose veins & I didn't know what they were, I saw a doctor.
When he touched my leg, I almost hit the ceiling. Scared the hell out of him.

When I was younger and living at home with my sisters, we would have a tickling bash where we would spontaneously tickle each other. The uproar and hilarity was priceless!
