MASSAGE
AND CUDDLING
One
doesn't live by bread alone. A human being naturally needs physical
contact with other human beings. Our ancestors would pass hours,
examining, scratching and cleaning each other, or simply staying
very near to each other. They would also all sleep together. We,
in comparison, suffer from an almost total lack of physical contact
with friends and relatives. For many, sexual activity is the only
moment of physical contact. And this doesn't favour a stress-free
sex life. The relationship between couples is expected to fill a
very large void, which becomes overloaded with expectations and
anxiety. Cuddling is an essential requirement for living in good
health. It comforts, calms and restores.
Why can't one pass an evening with one's male and female friends,
cuddling and massaging each other?
This is a big social problem because our customs and traditions

body is relegated to the domain of anxiety, sexuality and sin. It
has been like this for the past ten millenniums. But perhaps the
time for change has come.
