I have permission to post the cuddle party entry. Please contact [email protected] or [email protected] for verification. They know me by nick Jade (short for Jadxia) Patten.

non-sexual

To state that cuddle parties are non-sexual is, in my opinion, POV. I'm slightly modifying the first few sentences in an attempt to make them NPOV without sacrificing information. --Allen 05:03, 3 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Non-sexual is the rule, therefore I put "non-sexual" after "encouraged to"; this allows for the possibilty that participants and others view the interactions as sexual.--Patrick 11:54, 3 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You're right; that's best. Thanks. --Allen 14:19, 3 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

REiD?

"REiD Mihalko and Marcia Baczynski founded the organization..." Is this just a typo, or is REiD some acronym I'm not familiar with? --x-Flare-x 13:36, 23 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"Puppy Pile" and other discussions

A Puppy Pile is a derogatory term. if there is to be a merger, it should be based on the elimination of reference or association between cuddle party and puppy pile. people arent dogs.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by VForVendetta (talk • contribs) 08:06, 2006 March 21 (UTC)

Hi V - thanks for discussing here. I'm not completely familiar with any association between the two terms - I need to do a little research, which will probably take me about 2 days or so to get around to. I will also look into why the Merge template was added, as I'm not familiar with all the history. Welcome to Wikipedia. Johntex\^talk 16:20, 21 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi V - I've looked into it and I disagree. If you Google "cuddle party"+"puppy pile", the very first link[1] is cuddleparty.com and they use the term puppy pile in a non-derogatory manner to refer to something that may happen at a cuddel party. Johntex\^talk 21:58, 22 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Removing Neutrality Tag

No one has made any explanation here of why the Neutrality tag was added. Therefore, I am removing it. Before adding again, please discuss here. Johntex\^talk 22:04, 22 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Merger

If no one has any objections, I am going to merge the puppy pile stuff over to here and create a redirect there. It seems that the two words mean the same thing, but that "cuddle party" is the preferred (standard) term. Turly-burly 11:31, 13 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No objections here. Suggest a small note be added to the article pointing out what a 'puppy pile' is, once puppy pile is merged into this one. See cuddleparty.com definition & User:Johntex's comment that it's a sub-event of a cuddle party.

no mention whatsoever of a puppy pile anywhere in the article now... Mathmo ^Talk 03:27, 18 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
