Hi RedNeko!

Hamsters don't have saliva.

Haha good timing for this poll! It is hot and humid where I live right now, and I don't really do well in heat. I also don't have air conditioning. I like cold better. You can bundle up and stay warm in the cold, but there's not an easy way to escape the heat!

I really like hugs from basically everyone. I'll even still hug someone if I think they have a crush on me, because hugs are not usually seen as something inherently romantic. One time, a total stranger at a train station came up to me and said today was hug a stranger day and asked if he could have a hug. So I gave him a hug. With other things, it depends somewhat on whether I'm worried someone might think I have a crush on them. I REALLY like cuddling with friends and even people I just met. Dancing with someone is sometimes fun, although some people think you're supposed to make eye contact with your dance partner, and it just seems SO close to make eye contact with someone without a ton of awkwardness. If I'm not out to someone and suspect they have a crush on me, I would still enjoy these activities, but I worry that they might make the other person think I have a crush on them. Hand holding just doesn't do anything for me. I don't dislike it, but it's just so insignificant that I just don't care. Since it doesn't do anything for me and people might take it as romantic, I try to avoid it. Massages I have never understood, whether they are head, foot, back, etc. I think this is where I am the most different from all of you in terms of touch. I've heard a lot of people like them, even if they don't like other kinds of touch, but I just don't get it. Back massages supposedly loosen muscles, but they never seem to loosen my muscles, and often they really hurt. I don't particularly dislike back massages if they don't hurt, but I would still probably prefer not to have one. Foot massages tickle, and anything on my head is usually done (in my experience) by someone who is trying their best to treat me like a child. It also messes up my hair. I do not like kisses of any kind. They leave an awful feeling on my skin. I'm lucky enough not to have had anyone try to kiss me on the lips or make out with me, but I have a feeling that would be even worse.

I just thought of another one. Growing up, I never liked kisses. My parents and relatives tried to kiss me sometimes, and I always hated it. I thought all kids hated kisses until I recently realized that a lot of the kids I know like kisses. Then, much later, I saw this video because I was really wondering why anyone would kiss. And that was when I learned that kissing feels good to most people. I realized that up until then, I kind of thought people pretended to like kisses and making out because they were supposed to like them, not because they ACTUALLY liked them.
