Usually, it is because they are happy, and transferring their scent onto you. The base of the tail has scent glands, so by rubbing up against something will transfer the cat's scent. Its just the cat's way of showing its affection. It could also be that the cat likes the sensation, as the rump is a sensitive area on a cat.
