Welcome in summer with MCM's JUNE CUDDLE!

For many Chicagoans, summer can't get here fast enough. Please join us for the first event of the hot season for some luscious snuggling with the nicest group of guys. We just have room for ten. (Re above photo. Did you know you can cuddle with your eyes closed, or cuddle staring at the ceiling? It all works!)

Come on up to Dwight's cozy penthouse studio on the 29th floor overlooking the city. Get away from the hustle and bustle -- and join us for two hours of cuddles and/or nip play. This is Clothing-Optional so you can wear as much -- or as little as you please! The touch can be as platonic or sensual as you request. Express your wishes and boundaries. There'e a reason Men Cuddling Men has continued to grow for over nine years.

PAY BY MAY 25 and GET THE EARLY BIRD DISCOUNT FOR JUST $23! (After that, the fee returns to the regular $28.) This gives you 4 weeks from the event posting to RSVP! The address of the event will be shared the week before the event in the Welcome Packet. Please watch for it.

Check out our Cuddle Menu and Nipple Menu for suggestions! This will give you some ideas of new positions to try out.

Minimum number of cuddlers needed for this event to happen is 5. Come out and cuddle with us. Events all take place on the north side near Montrose and the lake. I send my exact address the week of events. (If you don't get my notices, please be responsible for reaching out to me to get critical info!) Ignore meetup map. We are the only male cuddle meetup group in the country! That's something to be proud of.

What are the benefits of cuddling? It's been proven by science that nurturing touch/cuddling boosts one's feeling of being cared for, and decreases depression/stress. There's lots of science of this -- lowering blood pressure, increasing resistance, the release of oxytocin which is a neurotransmitter that makes you feel nurtured and safe. Babies who are not touched have been known to die of skin hunger. People who cuddle live longer!

FIRST HOUR (WE ARE ON OUR FEET)
-- We start with a WELCOME CIRCLE where each person introduces themselves. Shades are drawn, room is darkened. Ground rules will be noted aloud. Cuddling is by consent.
-- The majority of time is for HELLO HUGS where one gets to embrace most of the others in the room for 5 minutes each (hugging, body exploration, caressing). Might limit this to a half hour. Often this is where newbies start to relax.

SECOND HOUR (WE ARE LYING DOWN)
-- We do 2-3 cuddle sessions about 20 minutes each. You can use the bed, futon, or foam mats.
-- The last cuddle is your choice! It can be a Three-way Cuddle or Two-way Cuddle. (In Three-ways, each man takes turns being in the middle, touched by the others.)

THERE ARE NO REFUNDS, NO DATE CHANGES. Most members are gay men and they identify as male. You can pay by paypal.

DO'S AND DON'TS
* DO. Cuddling can be nurturing or sensual. Spooning, face to face, massaging, nip play, body exploration, hardons ok. When in doubt, ask for permission.

* DON'T. This is not sexual. No oral, no penetration. Cumming is not the purpose, but if it happens please clean up. PLEASE come with your body and beards freshly showered, and fresh breath. Body odor and food smells are a turn off when cuddling up close! Freshen your deodorant before leaving the house.

Soft music will be played. Many like to converse during cuddles. Laughter or tears are fine also. Always speak up if something comes up that you are uncomfortable with. And to speak up if there is something you'd like to ask for. Also this is communal cuddling. It's based less on physical attraction and more on knowing we all need to be touched. On the other hand, everyone has the right to say yes or no to a cuddle. Not everyone may be comfortable with everyone and that's ok.

Diversity of body types welcome. Drama will not be tolerated. The week of the event, I will send details, and my address/unit number. If you don't get it -- email me at DwightOkita@gmail. You are responsible for checking all emails and direct messages and Meetup site notices -- or you might not get important changes/cancellations/address info. Thanks!
