City Halts Opening of Business Selling Cuddles and Hugs

[green73]

MADISON, Wisc. - The doors of a new business set to open today, will remain closed until city concerns have been allayed. So what's the business? Why the concern? It's called The Snuggle House and it offers cuddles and hugs from "professional" snugglers.

From the temporary Snuggle House Web Site...typo included:

This is an exciting opportunity to receive the benefits of TOUCH THERAPY in a non-sexual way, and feel "connected" in a disconnected, digital world. One session may be all you require, from time-to-time, or use 'Snuggling' as a staple to assist you in getting through a rough time. Our staff will be attentitive, courteous, polite, loving, and available to you within the boundaries of this new profession.


A single snuggle costs $60 and lasts an hour. A double-cuddle can be yours for $120 and overnight session costs $425. I would venture to say the overnight includes both snuggling and cuddling but can not confirm this. So what could go wrong?

City officials say the Snuggle House has not yet passed building and fire inspections and is therefore ineligible for an occupancy permit. Moreover, according to assistant city attorney, Jennifer Zilavy, no detailed business plan has been presented. "The city's primary concern is, we don't want a house of prostitution popping up," she says.

Emily Noon told a local reporter that clients sign contracts and any contract between a client and a snuggler will have enforced boundaries: "Intimate, non-sexual touch," Noon says.

Add a camera and eliminate non sexual touch....Porn.


"There's so many people who don't have a significant other in their lives that just need to be held," Noon said, "We're just college students that know how important it is to have physical touch in our lives."

~Hugs -the gateway drug to cuddles~

I find it interesting the ranching class would be concerned with this. The state can be so very jealous as it talks out of both sides of it's mouth. I wonder what the state teaches about mammal morals in it's schools. Sort of a tangent but it all ties together with a fail-state attempts to control-you-in-an-inconsistent-way.

If they were to videotape the encounters and call it a porno studio they could legally do anything they want.

The government and the lobbyists haven't found a way to make bank off "Hugs and Cuddles" yet. It will be fine, like the massage industry, as soon as licensing, permitting and mandatory secondary education courses are figured out.

Seems pretty inexpensive.

Figures--it's Madison after all.

The idea of snuggling with a stranger creeps me out. Then again, the idea of having sex with a stranger creeps me out too, but plenty of people do it. I say, let them snuggle, darn it.

[fisharmor]

Hugs are free.

All I can say is that people who want to snuggle are already getting black market snuggles for severe markups, and the snugglers are likely being abused with no legal recourse because they are forced by the state to keep their snuggling practices in the dark.

As usual, the state's actions only serve to empower the Snuggle Industrial-Complex:

I saw a tv show once where a guy went to a place like that. Can't remember the name. It was that British guy who travels across the US. I think the hug/cuddle place was in Nevada.

It was Idiot Abroad like Ranger29860 said. At first I thought it was Stephen Fry but that wasn't right.
