		<description>Non-sexual event? What does the CPO (Cuddle Party Organizer) do when Mr. &quot;Boner in Sweatpants&quot; rears himself?

I think I&#039;m going to vomit.</description>

		<description>My one question which strikes me as blatantly obvious is, isn&#039;t this a shiny front for the typical &quot;free love&quot; and &quot;love the one you&#039;re with&quot; mentality that this espouses? I wonder what the percentage of sexual encounters are immediately after a cuddle party.....</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Egad! I’ll stick to cuddling with my kids. Even cuddling with my stinky dog is more appealing than this. This is downright creepy.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

That&#039;s it! See, liberals don&#039;t have children!</description>

I wonder if Michelle Obama has heard of these - since she&#039;s so unhappy, and laments the loss of kindness and happiness in the U.S., maybe this is just what she needs. :-)</description>

		<description>This is just another (in a long line of 60&#039;s scams) causing the feminization of the American male.

I don&#039;t mean to sound derogeratory towards women, because I have the utmost love, respect and admiration for the strength of women (just the fact that my wife hasn&#039;t killed me in my sleep is testimony enough).  

But by nature, women are designed to nurture, and perpetuate the species and  men are designed to hunt and defend the tribe sacrificing his own life if necessary to insure the future of the family/tribe.  And to my mind, cuddle parties and similar such 60&#039;s type BS undermines both roles, and will lead to the collapse of our society.  

This is not to say that women should stay home barefoot and pregnant. We as a people have evolved enough to recognize an individuals right to seek opportunity and reward for effort regardless of gender.

But the need in our society for men to be men and women to be women doesn&#039;t degrade equal rights or equal reward. 

In countries/societies that aren&#039;t living to our &quot;modern level&quot; i.e. the 7th century, the people believe in physical confrontation, to resolve differences and destroy competing societies. And I don&#039;t think they are interested in cuddling.  So if American men get softened up by having cuddle parties, when we are forced to fight for our very survival, we are doomed.

Just my opinion.


Load more ammo for when cuddling doesn&#039;t work.</description>

		<description>Ah... first post ever here, yay!

Cuddle parties must be an old (middle-aged) person thing. Not too many of us 20 yr olds running around saying, &quot;let&#039;s put on some jammies and just snuggle alllll night&quot;.
Now, I&#039;m all for sexual deviance but this one (an erection is not sexual, bwahahahahaha!) is just too strange... kinda like furries and bears. 
I&#039;m going to graduate from college and get a job and wonder, constantly, whether my bosses are secret cuddle-fetishists. What a fantastic way to put fear into an underling!</description>

Spot on!  This is a primer course for those who sould like to see what the &quot;free love&quot; of the 60&#039;s &amp; 70&#039;s were all about.

Now I have to listen more closely and make sure my wife says she&#039;s going to a &quot;candle&quot; party.</description>

		<description>I would like to go to a cuddle party the day after eating 20 White Castles with cheese, a plate full of nachos with beans and jalapeño peppers, and a big vanilla milkshake.

For the good of real Americans, I&#039;d end cuddle parties one at a time.</description>

		<description>I am going to throw up.

Group sex?  That I can understand.  Maybe I don&#039;t condone it, but I at least can understand it.

This?  This is mental illness.

Given &quot;the rules,&quot; I get to decide whether I want to &quot;spoon&quot; or not.  Given that, I&#039;ll lay it right out there:

#1, I ain&#039;t laying down with anyone who isn&#039;t attractive,
#2, I ain&#039;t laying down with an attractive woman, smelling her hair, feeling her body against mine, feeling her body heat, feeling her breath, hearing her heartbeat, etc... 

without wanting more.  A LOT more.

And any guy who doesn&#039;t feel largely the same way is the kind of guy I&#039;ve always had a hard time understanding.

We tried the Alan Alda and Phil Donahue approach to manhood, and all it yielded was a generation with far too many eunuchs.  

These people are pathetic.  Seriously...</description>
