People pay for a good cuddle. Especially in Japan where most twenty-somethings focus more on their careers than on relationships and having families. These professional cuddlers offer much needed warmth and affection with no strings attached. Extra pay is given for extra services such as having the cuddler cosplay as an anime character or having him/her clean your ears with a Q-tip. There’s no hanky-panky allowed, though. Clients are made to sign contracts expressly prohibiting sexual contact. Professional snuggling is reportedly gaining popularity in North America as well.
