This thread reminds me of when I was little and watching the Olympics, "Mommy, why are those Russian guys kissing?"

I love hugs. Girls, guys, shemales, whatever. But I have never cuddled. I haven't had a girlfriend long enough for that, but I came close with a friend that was crying over his grandpa dying.

I've never cuddled with a guy before, but I am not against it. But all of us would be hard pressed to find another straight guy that would be ok with that. Homophobia is a basic foundation of the straight male social script.

There was a time that I infiltrated a high-testosterone group of guys, and after about two years, I got them on the hugging level. But they found out I was bi when I went to college, so they stopped hugging me. That hurt.

Never, EVVVER underestimate the homophobia of American guys. I was talking in the music lounge about the practical considerations of an orgy, and a guy said, "The biggest problem would be you're bound to make eye contact with another guy, and then your boner dies."

AHHHHHHH!!!

It never ceases to crack my ass up when a guy's world falls apart if someone even hints at them being a peter puffer. Guys call each other fags, because they know that the word cuts deep in a guys self-image.

In one of my psyche classes, the teacher said that a study was done over really homophobic men. When they were shown gay porn, they were disgusted, yet they were also getting a rise from it.

Damn this is a long post, but I have an anecdote. I was hired to work at a band camp in BFE. And the last thing I expected out of this farm community was guys hugging and touching left and right. I even told one of the students how the guys there completely contradicted my expectations of such a seemingly-macho social pool.

I agree that it is blue mud. It's just the way the pieces fell together in America.
