Guys, would you cuddle with a man?
Return to DiscussionsI suppose this applies more specifically to men who identify as being straight. How do you feel about cuddling or snuggling with a man? Is this something you've been able to experience? How did you feel?
In western society, I think the stereotypical view is that cuddling with a man would be considered gay. There are, of course, exceptions - some men can be quite affectionate and are comfortable doing so. I just can't imagine any of the guys that I know being comfortable really cuddling with another man.
I am a cuddly, affectionate guy, and would enjoy sharing this with those around me more freely. I just wonder how many other guys feel the same way?
I never got on with my father. He was very authoritarian and sure of himself. But when he got old and vulnerable he opened up. Then we had a hug or a cuddle whenever we met. To me a cuddle is a way of getting close to someone. It's does not have to besexual and so does not matter if they are male or female. It's about liking the person inside the body. Naturally my best cuddles were with my late wife.I have cuddled men, and other women, since. Naked cuddles are best.

Hey friends, I had cuddled with a lot of ppl - with our without sexual approach... I'm too a cuddly guy! Cuddle with wife, and discover to cuddle with a male friend too - it was a good feeling, and a surprising that let you really tranquil and free... without fear, because we are very good friends. That was great, we did it after a time ago, we meet a lot of other times, but never cuddle like that again... but we are always friendly and I suppose, when time will be arrived, we could / or not - this is not the question - to cuddle like that again... we just let it arrives! Nice regards!
I may well have cuddled more men than women, naked and clothed. It is a way of showing warmth and affection without necessarily being sexual. It can also give support to someone who is sad or feeling emotionally frail.

I am a straight married man. I am completely new to the nude thing. But I am terribly shy, self-conscous, and scared of ever being 'caught' by someone and it having negative repercussions. (Having been way too close friends with Murphy's Law, I am certain it will happen!)
I was very fortunate to meet another straight nudist from my area online and talked with him about my concerns and fears. Told him how I was worried about not being accepted or judged harshly. He explained to me how the nudist community/way of thinking is non-judgmental.
After quite a bit of chatting online, I decided to meet up with him. He invited me into his home and we started a great conversation, he let me ask anything about the lifestyle, the nude activities he has attended and hosted, and all. He really helped to put me at ease. Then he invited me to join him in shedding our clothes for the rest of our visit. I was apprehensive, but he was so
easy going and cool with whether I did or not. So with that calm, no pressure atmosphere, I decided that I would give it a try, so I did.
Then we went back to chatting as if nothing had changed. I was surprisingly not uncomfortable. And while the chatting was the same.. the atmosphere wasn't. It was like the social walls were down. There were no longer any opinions or judgements based on clothes... it was just about us chatting. I have to admit it was a very liberating experience. I was very grateful for him taking me under his wing, and guiding me into this fascinating world. All the while, I felt like we were becoming fast friends because we had so much in common.
I wasn't sure if it was going to be too weird or inappropriate or what, but I just wanted to thank him for the way he was putting me at ease, and asked him for a hug. We stood and I extended my arms.. and we then experienced a most amazing bear hug. It went on and on, and I, quite honestly, did not want it to end. Who knew that two straight men could get so much from a long naked big bear hug. I felt like my gas tank was getting a refill. It was absolutely amazing.
We then cuddled on the couch for the next half hour or more, talking more about my apprehensions, fears and his experiences and suggestions on how to deal with my concerns. It was a most amazing experience.
So, yes, straight men, or at least these two straight men, can (and did) cuddle with a man... and I would most definitely do it again.
I enjoy a good hug ort a good cuddle. It is part of the cement of a good friendship, whether male or female, textile or nude. It shows a willingness to be 'offguard'. It taught me to accept my body because for too many years I was embarrassed about myself.
I have cuddled other nude men and if that man gets excited about it...Hey I still have it and can pull lolI have no problems cuddling men or women so all is good for me really. It is mainly textile people that have a stigma on cuddles with same sex.
