Cuddle puddles deserve a better reputation than they get. ☺️

Human touch is a very under appreciated basic human need. That’s why my biweekly massage has become such an important part of my overall wellness program. There I am touched almost everywhere by a man that I like, respect and trust. Rock on.

Sorry. I meant to write "cuddle" in my other reply. Cuddles last longer than hugs. I am very tactile, with myself, with others. I look in the mirror and cup one cheek. I hold hands with myself. I stroke my upper arms, down my sides, my outer thighs, round and round my belly.

Touch is a magical thing. The herd (!) tends to oversexualize EVERYTHING. To me, it's the touching that's important, not the involvement (or not) of genitalia. This oh-so-sexual hype was going on in the '70's and has gone one unabated since then. Thanks for seeing through it here in this post, and in many other parts of your work.

Thank you, Clarke. I’ve noticed a big shift since the pandemic back to simpler, more intimate encounters. And genuine friendships and love coming out of what the “herd” wouldn’t even consider foreplay. They seem to forget the biggest sexual organs are our brains and our hearts. Bless their hearts. They’re missing out on some very good stuff! :-)

Clint, Fun! I wonder why “Samantha Jones” from HBO’s Sex and the City was not part of the future series. Fondly, Michael

Oh, Samantha wasn’t featured (except in one scene, I heard) in the continuation series because Kim Cattrall publicly came out and refused to work with Sarah Jessica Parker again.

From what I’ve heard, I’m on Team Cattrall.
