When two (or more) individuals are cuddling, and one
individual slowly strokes the other's penis or vagina in a soft, almost playful way. The couple or group remains in a cuddle position, never escalating to
sexual intercourse. The cuddle stroke is meant to be a gesture of endearment towards the
individual(s) being stroked. The cuddle stroke is a soothing touch, meant to be casual, but may in fact cause arousal.
