Technically it’s only gay if it’s sexual. If you just want to feel the warmth and contact with another
humansnake, then it can be perfectly heterosexual.But it’s okay if it’s not… It’s only natural.
Heterosexually snuggling my friends for warmth
i believe that’s like half the reason a lot of people join the military, the other half being getting fucked in the ass by either a fellow soldier or the military industrial complex itself
How does cuddling keep them warm if they’re cold blooded?
Edit: Thank you all for the new knowledge I’m good on more comment notifications though lol
It’s not that cold blooded animals produce no heat, it’s that they lose it faster than they make it. Plus a larger mass retains heat for longer.
‘Cold-blooded’ is a term that’s a little outdated, because of the confusion it creates around this very concept. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold-blooded has some information on it, and even says it’s an informal term. Generally speaking, if we refer to something as cold-blooded, it’s more reliant on or affected by the external temperature, while warm-blooded creatures will ‘deal with’ the external temperature.
Cold blooded animals still produce body heat, just like you feel warmer after exercise. They may not have any methods to keep their body temperature much higher than the surroundings, but wouldn’t want to become too cold either.
Edit:
While many snakes hibernate in solitude, there are some species who hibernate in groups. This is so they can preserve warmth in their dens through the winter.
A larger mass loses less thermal energy because it has less surface. So the snakes bask during the day and store up heat, and then huddle together to keep that heat around for longer. Same as a big rock would hold heat for longer than separate tiny pebbles would
square cube law is cool
It’s warm. Jesus we just went over this!
Listen men, it’s ok to ask for a hug. You don’t have to dress like a snake and wiggle your butt down main street unless it’s dress-like-a-snake-and-wiggle-yo-ass day and that’s in April. See you there!
And if you do, please at least do it on Halloween.
Do snakes have balls? So the balls aren’t touching? I rest my case.
We’ve all had nights like that.
