"The Twelve Tickles"

I like teasing my friends when they do something in keeping with the traits of their Sun Sign. One such occasion involved a Scorpio woman who was being tickled by her boyfriend. She looked at him with a stern expression and ordered him to "Stop it!" My response was "Oooo, you're such a Scorpio!"

So, I've been working on a a list of reactions:

Aries would have tickled back until *you* were begging her to stop.

Taurus would just roll over and sit on you.

Gemini would have giggled and tickled back, then realized that she had forgotten what she was going to say just before the tickling started.

Cancer will just get up without saying anything, walk into her room, and slam the door. She won't come out for hours and will bring up the whole incident ten years later in the middle of a fight.

Leo would get extremely offended, and would look at you with utter incomprehension when you explained that it was only fair, since she felt free to tickle you.

Virgo will stare at you without laughing until you stop.

Libra would have enjoyed it until it messed up her outfit.

Scorpio will at first succumb to the tickling, then suddenly, through an effort of sheer willpower, regain her composure, stare you fixedly straight in the eye and say, "Stop it! now! or else!"

Sagittarius would have tickled back, then when you were in the other room, started tickling the guy sitting on her other side.

Capricorn never gets tickled because she's always working late at the office.

Aquarius would have quietly extricated herself with a small smile while trying to think of a way the entire group could have fun with the tickling.

Pisces will at first hate the tickling, then decide she liked it, because, after all, it's what the other person wants.

I like the Aquarius approch to tickling - "thinking of a way the whole group could have fun with the tickling" - Group Tickle!!!

Pixel?
You seem like a type who loves being tickled and also one who easily fills the role of the tickler.

Awww come on - let him tickle you every once in a while! It's one of our favorite things to do.

Yet, there is a time and a place. Ive been known to yell at my Taurus when he sneaks up and tickles me. I'll suddenly feel some fingers on the bottom of my foot and *jump* and say *STOP IT*! I don't like the sneak attacks.

I bet Pixie likes to be tickled... I bet she's a tickler too.

I would sit on him and he would have to put his hands behind his head while I tickled, then it was my turn. Whoever gave in and put their arms down first, lost.

I would also roll him up really tight in a blanket, like a "mummy" at the top of the stairs and send him flying down them.

Scorpios, and Cancers, hate to be tickled, or poked. Better to offer a massage. A Scorpio would say, my neck hurts. Massage now. Here please.

This Taurus prefers little kisses, and I love you's.
So I would say, little kiss please.

My Sag sister would run up to me and say Tickle Me! and then run away, so you had to chase her. Then she'd beg you to massage her feet.

Okay..WHAT is it with Taurus (males?) and trying to stick their fingers in armpits and belly buttons? It drives me nuts. I mean, it's all innocent, but it's kind of odd. LOL..I sometimes have to just look at him and say 'Dude..what is up with that..how would you like it if I did that to you? He smiles and says "Please do"

Growing up with a Sag bro we used to get into a lot of play-tickle matches and pretend fights. We would pretend that we were Rocky Balboa (him) and I was Muhammed Ali (because he is white and I am brown..LOL) Then we would jump up and down on my king size bed and I would say "I am going to sting you like a bee" and he would say "Yo Yo Yo..." LMAO

Anyways, saggie boy will come up to me, raise his arm and shove his armpit in my face. This means "Please Tickle"...he is terribly ticklish. So when I start he screams and squeals and laughs and goes "stop it! *gasp* stop it!" so I stop and he comes back and shoves his armpit in my face again--oh yeah, stop it, stop it! lol

OMG! I LOVE "back tickles" - when someone draws on your back.
I actually call this a "tingle". I say to my boyfriend "Tingle me" and he knows what I mean. LOL! Ha ahaha! I'm cracking myself up here. What a weirdo I am. "..Tingle me, baby.."

When I was younger my friend and I would sleep over each others houses and sleep in the same bed and draw on each other's back's all night long. We would try to guess what the other was drawing. ....She was a Pisces. Did anyone else do this. It was totally innocent.

I'm not quite sure why we (taurus') love to tickle so much. My guess is because we are ruled by our senses more than the other signs. We are the "sign of the senses". Mmmm....taste, touch....feel....hear....see.
It's quite funny, this whole subject.

Arent Sag. brother's the best! I only have one sibling and I'm glad he's a Sag. They are so fun. He is actually a double Sag., Sun and Moon and Leo rising. Fun Fun Fun!!!
And yes they like to be petted but not smothered. I remember back in the day on long car rides, he would lay his head on my lap when he got tired and ask me to rub his back. He was so cute lying there sucking his thumb. I used to carry him around everywhere like he was my little baby, even though he was about the same size as me. They say people with strong Sag. are usually tall. He's 6'2 now.
