In honor of April Fools I have decided to dedicate today's posts to things that really seem like they should be a joke...I was flipping through the channels the other day and saw a, what I think is disturbing, story on the news...
Cuddle parties - a sleepover for grownups where even though the pjs stay on the whole time you still are allowed to cuddle, nuzzle and spoon complete strangers.
"This is a way of framing touch in a positive way," says cuddle party facilitator Edie Weinstein-Moser.
It starts off by everyone sitting in a circle and introducing themselves and going over the rules, like everyone must ask permission before cuddling someone. When everyone is clear it begins. Usually lasting about 3 hours it's apparently a way of letting adults achieve better intimacy and communication.
Alright... who the hell is going to these things??? Am I the crazy one who thinks this is completely creepy? The thought of going into a room of complete strangers in their pjs is weird enough but then being expected to spoon them??
I was curious where you were able to find your darling puppy..I want to get a chocolate one..
ReplyDeleteThough I understand the sentiment that human touch is healing and powerful - I also find cuddle parties with strangers completely creepy. Then again, I'm not a huge fan of random touching...
ReplyDeleteI checked and it's like shihpoms don't even exsist!! SAD :(
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for helping me :)
ReplyDeleteThat is just gross!
ReplyDeleteJust weird! I can't believe people do this.
ReplyDeleteIt may work for some people, but having a totaly stranger cuddle me would skeeze me out.
ReplyDelete{AWKWARD}
ReplyDeleteI don't even like being touched by people I know!
No way in hell, I'd get snuggle-trapped by Mr. I Don't Believe in Deoderant and his hippie girlfriend. Nope, not happenin!
ReplyDeleteNope, no way. Enough said.
