Electromagnetic induction is what you're feeling and it is indeed creating an inductive field.

[-] zaphod@sopuli.xyz -4 points 4 days ago

Electromagnetic fields induce electric fields, so you're saying these inductive fields that you can feel are electric fields or do you feel the magnetic field of the induced currents?

An induced magnetic field is how you feel electricity around high voltage. What even is your argument here because what you're saying in large part makes no sense.

[-] zaphod@sopuli.xyz -2 points 4 days ago

My argument is that you can't feel magnetic fields. What is yours, because all you write is utter nonsense. Electric fields are induced, not magnetic fields, it's called Faraday's law of induction, inductive field is not a technical term. You get a magnetic field from an induced current which is caused by the electric field in a conductor.

You can absolutely feel electromagnetic fields. You're being overly tedious about verbiage. Neat.
