Cuddle Parties claim to be non-sexual events where adults get together for safe, playful interaction. Cuddle parties began in New York in 2004 as way for adults to incorporate more intimate touch in their lives.

Party-goers must ask permission to touch one another and have the right to refuse anytime.
