Men's cuddling group aims to redefine masculinity and heal trauma

I think this is an interesting article:

Quote:Quote:

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.

Quote:Quote:

At a time when traditional ideas of manhood are facing scrutiny and such terms as toxic masculinity are becoming more widely known through the MeToo movement, the group aims to provide new ways for men to express themselves.

“So often, we’re taught that to be an emotional stoic is the mark of manhood,” said Scott Turner, a 46-year-old interior designer and cofounder of the group. “If you show any emotional weakness or vulnerability, that’s a failure to your title of a man.”

But “if we expect men to be emotionally sensitive to the needs of others, they first need to be able to build an emotional vocabulary,” he said.

Part of that involves learning that physical touch extends beyond aggression or sex. Platonic affection can be a doorway to emotional closeness.

Seems pretty alpha.

But do they have a point or is this taking it too far?

Way too late for these guys to say "no homo."

"The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe.
To be your own man is a hard business. If you try it, you'll be lonely often, and sometimes
frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself." - Kipling

Would cuddle dude at top left - I think I would feel safe in his arms.

Quote:Quote:

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.

For the second half of the session, the men cuddled as one large group in what they call a “puppy pile.” Men lay with their heads in each other’s laps, chatted, and joked.

I bet the guy on the left that doesn't have soyface is a chubby-chasing gay that started the meetup like how I'd start a meetup group to help empower large-breasted women by letting them compete to see who can do the best job at smothering me with their tits.

This is a deliberate perversion of masculine friendship and comradery - something they do not want.

It would not be allowed if it were like the below. Look what happens when we try to meet up.

Does this lend credence to the theory that gays weren't hugged enough by dad?

On behalf of all women, I'm very angry that this has been set up just for men. I can only imagine how many women out there would love to be a part of this.

That's not how we do things in Russia, comrade.

I was on Pornhub (girlsdoporn) and I saw this advertisement for guys that can watch porn together online and wank at the same time.... seems similar.

Correct.

Men have been "men in arms" for a million years. Men have defended each other, carried each other, sewn up each other's wounds, avenged each other, cared for their fellow's children and remarried the wives of their departed brothers.

I don't hate these "cuddle" guys. I understand totally why they get together and hug. I bet they go on camping trips and help each other build shelving in the garage. But I do hate society for trivializing and faggotizing it.

I'm sorry. I read this in another context and laughed enough to kick over my gallon of water. You owe me a new one.

Roosh, please make the next meetup a hugging event. We'll all wear dresses and touch each other. I guarantee the feminists will leave us alone. And strangely enough, they won't want to join in and ruin it by making it a unisex event. The password is "Where can get poppers?"

That's not how we do things in Russia, comrade.

Nothing wrong with some non-gay contact between you and your bros, like the ole angled handgrasp-into-a-bro-hug deal

This, however, reeks of faggotry. Do they bust out the body oil and play naked twister after they all get their cuds?

I don't want to even know what the fuck that they are doing. Here is some R. Lee Ermy Clips to get rid of the fag stench on this post:
