Cuddle Parties

Saw this featured on either Sex TV or Sex Files. Sounds like a cool idea, anyone ever been to one? People I've talked to have differing opinions about them though. Some agree with me that cuddling is much needed in today's world because of over stressing and distancing from others. It can be quite theraputic, or so the cuddle party organizers say. Others say it's another way to get an easy buck out of suckers. Parties are quite pricey, upwards of $30 a head for admission. What is everyone's stance on cuddling in general with say someone of the opposite sex whom you are not sexually involved with, or even a complete stranger if one was to attend a party.

I saw that.

I would probably be interested in doing something like that, but definitely not alone, I'd drag a friend along with me.

True, the idea of cuddling with a complete stranger does seem a little weird. For me, I'd prefer to cuddle with a female friend whom I'm comfortable with and not sexually involved with. You know how some people have casual sex partners? I'd prefer to have a casual cuddling partner. Mind you, that wouldn't be such a good idea if I was sexually involved with another woman, unless she understood the situation. Whenever I cuddled with past girlfriends, it almost always led to sex. Not that that's a bad thing mind you, but sometimes, you just need a cuddle.

I saw something on TV about it, too, and did some research about it.  Although I agree people need more non-sexual physical contact, the whole thing is VERY creepy and VERY weird.  I would never ever want to be a part of it...  at all.
