MINNESOTA TICKLER · ADULTS 18+ ONLY · NONSEXUAL
Session types
& boundaries.
Tickling, restraint-based sessions, and falaka/bastinado are distinct activities. Agreeing to one never means agreeing to another.
Minnesota Tickler welcomes inquiries from adults across Minnesota. This page describes the differences so you can make an informed decision. The specific session location and any travel arrangements must be confirmed individually. Sessions are nonsexual, with no nudity. Specific activities, intensity, limits, and any recording or publication must be discussed and explicitly agreed upon before each session.
01 / TICKLING
Tickling sessions
Tickling-themed sessions may vary in intensity, within limits agreed on beforehand. Feet tickling is preferred, subject to your comfort and explicit agreement.
Agree on which areas may be involved, which are off limits, and when to pause or stop. A tickling session does not imply consent to restraints or impact activities.
02 / OPTIONAL RESTRAINTS
Bondage /
restraint-based sessions
Here, bondage refers to a nonsexual session involving agreed-upon physical restraints. Restraints are optional and require a separate, explicit discussion and agreement.
Discuss exactly what is proposed, your limits, and how to stop and be released before deciding. You may decline restraints entirely. Consent to restraint never grants permission for additional activities.
03 / DISTINCT FROM TICKLING
Falaka / bastinado
Falaka, also called bastinado, involves striking the soles of the feet. It is an impact activity, not a type of tickling, and can cause pain and injury.
It is not included by default in a tickling or restraint-based session. Any proposed involvement requires a separate, informed discussion of the activity, risks, and boundaries. Consent does not make an activity risk-free, and participation is never required.
BEFORE EVERY SESSION
Your boundaries.
Your decision.
You can decline any activity, change your mind, pause, or end participation at any time. A prior session, payment arrangement, or initial agreement does not remove that choice.
Specific agreement
Discuss the session type, intensity, limits, duration, and any optional restraints in advance. Do not assume consent.
Recording is a separate question
Discuss whether photos or video will be taken, where they may be used, and any publication restrictions before agreeing.
Clear arrangements
Confirm the location, travel arrangements, and any payment terms beforehand. No pay rate is implied for these additional session types.
Understand the details first.
