Men, are you physically affectionate with other male friends? (eg, hugging, snuggling, playful wrestling, etc). If you aren't, do you wish it was more socially acceptable if it isn't in your culture? (pawb.social)

I find it interesting to watch people's behaviors in various circles. Some are very physically affectionate among friends or even acquaintances, others are super awkward, but then those super awkward people are incredibly physically affectionate with pets (wrestling with them in the grass, picking them up, snuggling with them on the couch, etc). It's an interesting cultural dynamic to watch.

People have interesting social filters that drop at a moment's notice when pets or alcohol are involved, haha.

Pets are often the comfort that humans aren't
