From 'motorcycle hold' to 'puppy pile': How a men’s cuddling group works
post bulletin ^ | march 29, 2019 | Aneri Pattani

PLYMOUTH, Pa. — Twice a month, half a dozen men gather in Plymouth Meeting to help each other work through past traumas.

Their chosen method of healing? Cuddles.

It may seem odd, but members of the Men’s Therapeutic Cuddle Group say the practice has helped them cope with everything from childhood sexual abuse to the loss of family members when they were young.

“The cuddling started with men pairing up to do “the motorcycle hold,” in which one man sits with his back against another man’s chest, as if they were riding together on a motorcycle. Some massaged their partner’s shoulders or hands, while others stroked the other person’s beard. Many closed their eyes as the room fell into silence. After 15 minutes, they switched to a new partner.”

Riding season is starting.

Think I’ll try to get my biker friends into this.

Because it is and if a guy tried to cuddle with me I’d punch him repeatedly in the face until he was dead.


Maybe you should stop going to the Male Cuddling Group meetings. Attendance is dwindling.

The only man that can heal all wounds, is the man that was on the middle cross.

On the issue of whiskey and handling things, you might enjoy this short piece I ran across when looking for a bottle to give an older friend for his 70th (written by author Ann Hood):

Half a dozen guys are involved...and it’s news? It’s not that hard to put together a group of six weirdos.

The “men” are probably not all homosexual, But some? Yes, certainly feminized into submission to homosexuals. The “therapists “ who are PROMOTING it?

Absolutely.

When it comes to touchy-feely stuff amongst guys, all I can say is that I’m proud of the fact that my sainted father and I always shook hands.

If he was here today, I’m sure he’d explain, in his usual calm and rational way that “this is how gentlemen greet one another.”

But that's just me.

I live in the area, not by choice. But I have noticed many of the churches around here aren’t biblically based. One I was in had quotes from Nelson Mandela and the Dalai Lama painted on the wall, no biblical verses in sight. Many others have quotes in their marquees such as “Jesus was a refuge,” “Love is Love” and other current liberal messages. It’s disheartening after living in the Bible belt for decades. So this men’s cuddle group is just another creepy example.
