because it's fun... how fun is it to have a tickle fight or to hear a child laugh as you tickle their tummy. it cheers you up and makes you smile - can there be a better reason?!

I don't think there is much point to actually being ticklish but there is a point to pulling away from an unidentified touch. The tickle response of jumping away and looking to see what touched you could protect a person from poisonous insects or from being eaten by rats.

Funny bone
And for the fun of it is said to be no bone, yet tickles and at the same time help orientation for hand movements. I see no other point in our life to being ticklish. Life is a serious matter, funnily so.

all animals are ticklish, they just can't laugh. Its a reactionary response to a stimulus.

joy and euphoria at hearing your childs laughter when being tickled!!! this can ease your stress and tension and take your mind of some troubles. i recommend tickling your child at least once a day!!!!!

to show we are alive? I hate being tickled, it is so unbearable and i think it is a kind of torture. you should only do it if someone gives you permission.

I don't think there's a point to it so much.
