    I browse “All” most of the time and the Femcel Memes show up pretty regularly. It’s not like this gif though. It’s more like watching a super interesting science experiment.

    “Ah, yes. I see. I see. How interesting!”

    My scientific notes so far:

    • They crave cuddles. It’s almost like a cuddle-based economy.

        I just took an NFPA 70E electrical safety course, and the instructor was talking about how electricians love to cuddle.

        I thought it was weird for a sec, then I remembered the last time I opened an electrical panel with someone else nearby. Then I remembered every other time I opened an electrical panel with other people nearby. Then I remembered all the times that I was all the other people nearby.

        Then he showed us a video of an arc flash with 3 people inside the panel, and then there was nobody nearby.

          Everyone has different preferences, straight man here and I always want cuddles. It depends on what your “love language” is i.e. how you prefer to give/receive affection.

          For me cuddles and other forms of non-sexual touch (not that I’m asexual, far from it) are my preference for giving and receiving. Acts of service, like cooking a meal etc. I’m fine with giving but it makes me feel awkward to receive. And gift giving (random flowers, chocolate, trinkets, etc.) I prefer not to do because trying to come up with a good gift stresses me out and I don’t like random gifts, I really appreciate the thought but if I don’t find a use for it, including being a decoration I like, I don’t want it.

          But like you said, you find a middle ground with your partner and I do the same as well.
