All this talk about gender "hormones" in the RPG thread has led me to images of large men pushing women away after sex, butchering cattle and stuffing themselves on raw meat...to die at the age of 48.
So I thought I'd take a break into sanity and ask how many of us enjoy cuddling. You know--not sex, not even heavy petting, just...cuddling. I'm not saying it can't lead to something else, or be the result of something else.  But I really find cuddling a survival trait. Because in a world where people are all too ready to assume sexual stereotypes and selfishness as rules of the game, cuddling breaks down barriers and shows us what we really are: human beings.
And if anyone starts singing Barry Manilow, here, I will personally hand on hand grenades.

Chalk up a big fat 2 for "I cuddle a fair amount." And I agree, it's definately a survival trait.

I selected "a fair amount" as well. Though it really does depend on my mood. There are times when I am very much in my own space, and I really prefer to avoid any sort of physical contact. On other occasions I find cuddling very wonderful.

I would cuddle ALL THE STINKING TIME!.... except I have no one to cuddle with...  Hehe. I'm a very snuggly/affectionate person. I cuddled with a guy once (more than once, but I'm referring to this time,) and we both enjoyed it. Fable, I hate you. You made me want a boyfriend.  I'm a loser.

So you pattern your sexual activity after the Black Widow, only reverse the gender role?

I would have selected "all the time," yet a psychological block prevented this on account of how you cleverly tagged Barney to the answer...that's enough to make anyone fervently desire non-cuddling solitude. 
I cuddle a great deal. It just so happens that my significant other does as well, so when we're not involved in the various mundane tasks of life, we're cuddling. We cuddle when we sleep, we cuddle on the couch, and we even sit close together in restaurants.
