At what age were you into L & C

[ljakse]

I think in kindergarten when my female peer suddenly lifted me from behind. I believe that incident trigered the development of my lift and carry fetish. Im not sure if it is really a fetish in my case. It's just my sexual foreplay prefference, nothing more. I could do it without being lifted and carryed by a woman and also without thinking about it.

It happened when I was a little boy. I had spent a week in a ski resort, where I met a little girl I skied with every day.
On the last day there was a party organized at our hotel. At a moment, when I was walking by her as she was sitting, she grabbed me onto her lap and locked her arms around me. I was very embarassed to be stuck in such a situation in front of every body as I tried with no succes to stand up and free myself from her little but strong arms but that kept me emprisonned on her lap.
I was skinny and quite tall for my age : though she was smaller she was totally controlling me.

I was about 5 years old, when a girl of 8 years lifted me in cradle style during a holiday. It was an immensly beautiful feeling and I think this triggered everything.

In fact, I am happy that I have (or have discovered) the passion for lift & carry, since it is something powerful enough to pull me away from negative/sad thoughts ever since.

I was only very rarely lifted by girls as a kid (I remeber three situations), but, approximately beginning at the age of 22, a long series of lifts and carries in various situations and settings began lasting until today. I guess, it is part of my lifestyle.

That's the same way with me. Female cousins and older girls lifted and carried me a few times when I was a kid. It was a taboo for me, but I still enjoyed it. I never was lifted in my adult life, though.

I really hope, you will find possibilities to make lovely lifting experiences in your adult life. Fingers crossed!

For me, it still is so fascinating. It really never gets old and boring. And, I think it is possible to "attract" being lifted just by allowing oneself to be open and, most importantly, to feel not ashamed for asking it or opening up about it. It is, after all, such a harmless thing, I'd think.

I agree with you. It's a rather harmless activity, although some people try to pathologize it like it's a mental problem or a social taboo. It's fine if it's kept in perspective and there's no obsession. It's not even a real fetish if you don't need it in order to become aroused.

I always wanted my girlfriend or my wife to have a lifting and wrestling session, but I never had the guts to mention it. I thought that there was a slight chance that they would freak out over it. I showed a F/F lifting tape to a date back in the day, and she was really turned off by it. I acted like it confused me too.

I put an ad in a small alt newspaper way back when that was a thing. I asked to meet women who were into lift and carry. A girl called, and she said that she liked to do that with her girlfriend and that I should join them. She didn't leave a contact number!

I started to be into lift and carry during my teenage years, I often had dreams and fantasies about it though it was mostly unconcious. Over the years my liking of lift and carry intensified and I become self aware of it when I was 18 or 19. Even now I don't know why I am into it.

I completely understand your situation and I also agree to your view that it is not a real fetish, since it is not needed to be aroused. I also think that the phenomenon involves much more than a sexual aspect: For example: emotional relief, handing over control to another person, a feeling of security, which is so intense, that it is normally not reachable in adult life.

In various longer or shorter relationships, I only had one explicitly negative experience (in this case I asked for a little bit of wrestling). In the biggest part the reactions were positive to very positive, maybe neutral in a few cases, but - apart from this one case - always friendly.

Maybe try contact improvisation classes? Or a "thai and fly" or "therapeutic flying" massage? I also was once lifted by a professional cuddler. I really hope you get to experience being lifted soon.

Those are good points (emotional aspects of lifting). I think that the breaking of taboos plays a part too. I and a second forum member think that it isn't "manly" to be in the role of the liftee. He's more strict than I am, though.

It wouldn't really bother me to be lifted and carried by a woman, even a bigger and stronger one. Frankly, the embarrassment might be a turn-on. That means that I'm not REALLY that against it. It's not THAT much of a taboo.

I've been this way since I was a kid. Then, bigger and stronger older female cousins would lift and carry me, and one of my dad's friend's daughters would too. It was a semi-taboo, but I still enjoyed it. You don't have much of a choice if they're four to eight years older before you turn 13.

I would have definitely had a session with a Las Vegas professional lifter when I was in my early twenties. She was known to be one of the best in lifts and carries. I would have met up with the women who messaged me without a contact number too because they wanted to have me join their lifting fun. I'm still not averse to the idea.

I've been into lift and carry since I was a teenager. My first memory of it goes back to a cousin who was just a year older than me... she'd piggyback me around the backyard like it was nothing and that thrill has stuck with me ever since.
