Hi! Anyone here identify as LGBT+? What have your experiences been like, whether giving or receiving cuddles?
Hello Evan,
Just signed up today but it seem not promising at all. Not sure if I will get any invitation.
I identify as an independent
Cool
@Evan98 I’m an older gay man with flashes of bi around the holidays ?. I’ve been here almost a year, with a couple of months off in the middle. I have my first cuddle from this site tomorrow. (I’ve been fortunate to catch a couple of cuddles. From people who never heard of this site) My new friend is a much younger and totally straight man. So, that kind of defies what I’ll tell you now- I don’t think many men (0% +/- the standard deviation) have much interest in cuddling other men. I have a friend who is a transman (female to male transsexual for the innocent) who tried the site for a couple of months. He specified that his interest was solely in cuddling women, no men. He got one or two letters a day from men, and zero from women. I have a sense, though no strong data that it is more likely that women cuddle each other.
@mickcuddle Ah, good to know. I’m actually a transman myself!
@Evan. Yes, I saw that. I should add that he never sent messages to any women. That could have played a role in why he never heard from any of them.
I've had great experiences with both genders on here. No one has questioned me or challenged me or made me feel uncomfortable in person or about my sexuality when it comes up. It doesn't really come up a lot, though. Girls cuddle with other girls from safety more than relationship type cravings, so they don't really care if I date girls because we're not going to date. And guys don't care that I also cuddle with girls, or at least not that they've told me.
ive only been cuddling once with a bi guy from this site (nice cuddles, i even fell asleep), and cuddle with my gf now (questioning demigirl here)
I am not. Though I don't care if someone is. Being a decent person matters. ?
I'm in the + part. Both my experiences have been worthwhile. The first one was great (my cuddle buddy had Star Wars books. score). The second one would've been just as good except that cuddler had the idea that it was a sleepover, which didn't work with my schedule at all—nothing to do with my LGBT+ness, just the "wait, what is that pill you're taking, why are you now falling asleep in my bed, it is time for you to go."
And I've gotten to talk to lots of fun and interesting people, none of whom have attacked me for not being straight or cis. So, on the whole, I'd say this is a site of nicely accepting folks... in my experience. Here's hoping yours is as fortunate as mine's been. Good luck!
I am have no preference as to who I am attracted to but only seem to be requested by men. I don’t judge others yet I seem to get judged a lot. To me I am attracted to a persons mind, creativity and personality. Inspiration is my charge.
@mokissia
I hope you don't take the mare fact of women not going for you as a judgement. It's most just not their preference or comfort. Just like you nobody should confine you to just be with men. Though if judgement is coming at you for being open to anyone no matter their gender, then that is wrong. A note to all: Let's not judge each other, nobody should be asking you to cuddle same sex and or all. Same to the other side nobody should asking you to only cuddle one.
@mokissia In general, women don’t pay for pro cuddles. They get what they need and more, often, just by virtue of their gender.
I want to give cuddles to a woman, gay or straight. I hope someone contacts me just for that.
@mickcuddle Dude a client is a client, i doubt someone would say no to extra money just cause the client is a woman..
@Cris033 You are so right. But I was responding to a Pro Cuddler who was complaining that women don’t contact her for sessions. My observation was that most women find many opportunities without paying a Pro. That’s not a slam on anybody. It’s just reality.
I have net very nice pro through this site who are open to cuddle every one. Blessed to be part of this community.
I'm gay and cuddling with men makes my heart flutter and my body warm, but cuddling with women makes my body warm and sort of antsy. I used to cuddle with my girl friends in college, but it just doesn't fulfill me like satisfying with another man does.
... Why this was a hot one; personally--- I'm very straight. But it's interesting, one of the most interesting cuddles I had... The person had features that were... Energy transfer that led me to be confused; totally confused; I flew 7000 miles... I'm like okay so now what. I had anticipation for being more than a cuddle. But I like the person so intensely[] I sort of put the mental framework aside. And simply said, I'm here-- I truly like 20 qualities of the person. As a result I had one of the most best experiences of my life. Even though I was confused for the first couple of days..... That brings you back to the question of what is a cuddle.... It's a close personal relationship... Without sex. A very close personal relationship. I think some of it has to do with your own personal self-image.. And then it has a lot to do--- with the nature of who you are and what you're about. Does that make any sense to anybody?
.... Personally[]... I would feel.. Quite happy cuddling with another female[] even she was identified are preferring females. The rest. I'm not sure I can handle but the life as long. I've talked to a few people who are transgender. .. Generally speaking... The population by natural inclination... Is maybe 49% male.. 49% female... 1%... Some of both... And the other 1% indeterminate. So I'm not a doctor nor am I a person who judges other people. But if I'm to spend time with someone I would like to know that I like them.... Deeply as a person.
As a straight guy, I am only comfortable cuddling women. It doesn't matter to me whether they are straight or gay, however, I prefer they look and act feminine. I would never be comfortable cuddling another guy or anyone transgender in either direction. That's just me, although I suspect most straight guys would say the same. I think far more women are comfortable cuddling other women than men are comfortable cuddling other men, and that is borne out by women's preferences in their profiles on this site.
raises hand Here.
I've met some really great gay or bi guys on here, I have corresponded with some women (such as the divine @BlueIris ) and also some really cool straight guys whom I would cuddle in a heartbeat.
On the other hand, I've blocked multiple peoples and/or deleted conversations with trolls and incredibly uptight reborn Victorians. Like any social app, the illusion of anonymity gives people a sense of entitlement that merely sending a message merits a response. No, faceless one, it doesn't.
@Evan98 , I'm bi, but I don't mention it in my profile and it hasn't really come up here. I don't discriminate on the basis of sexual orientation or gender. From this site, I've only cuddled with straight men because that's who has contacted me. Outside of here in my personal life I've cuddled with men, women, gays, lesbians, straight, transgendered. They've all been good cuddle buddies.
@Babichev - a large percentage of women on this site identify as bisexual (seems around 50% to me) and an even greater percentage have 'cuddles everyone' in their profiles. I've even come across quite a few straight women who only cuddle other women. So I suspect if you did a search of your own, you would have no difficulty finding other women to cuddle.
I've enjoyed cuddles here with several professional women, and a couple non-professionals. I have also had an experience (not here) cuddling a couple. I am a straight man, but I enjoyed cudding another man more than I would have thought. The sensation of touch is powerful, and really needed. I would be open to cuddling another couple. I'm not quite sure I could cuddle only with a man... but I'm not sure why not.
@UKGuy - in my area, only a handful of women show up - two professionals and a couple of women in their 20s. I did message one. Something in her profile suggested she had studied with a professional colleague of mine and I sent a message saying hello, I saw your profile, it looks like you may have studied with a colleague of mine, is that true? Never got a response. So, it's not just the guys who don't get responses from women. ;-) To be fair, it looked as if she had not been on the site for over five months so she may never have even gotten it.
I just did a search. Within a 20 mile radius, 10 women show up and seven are listed as professionals. Of the non-pros, two are in their 20s and one in their 40s.
I joined this site two months ago and recently cuddled two men (which identified as Gay). They both cuddled men and women. I identify as Straight and cuddle both genders as well. I am happy to announce that despite short time on this site, I accomplished goals. My goals were to make friends and bond through platonic cuddling. I am secure in my use identity and masculinity, which helps me feel comfortable with cuddling females and males.
If you are in the LGBT community do you feel comfortable contacting someone to cuddle with you of any sexual orientation or who do you seem more comfortable cuddling with?
@CreativeCuddles - it depends. IF a profile shows they'll cuddle everyone, then yes, and I've had very positive experiences here.
Otherwise, no - if someone is interested, I'll let them take the initiative, but I have zero expectations given there are such emphatic "I'd never cuddle another man!" and "look how hetero I am!" posts and comments.
@TallMuscleGrad That is so awesome! I am so happy that platonic cuddlers like you exist! I am hoping to get the chance to cuddle for the first time through this site. I am glad that others have had good experiences. ?❤???
