Would you cuddle with complete strangers for money if you were married with kids?

One married mum-of-three rakes in $57,800 a year by hugging total strangers. Jessica O’Neill, 35, started professional cuddling six months ago — and makes $1,100-a-week from her unusual side job.

Jessica O'Neil

She spent a decade working as a massage therapist and counselor before adding cuddles to the treatment list at her studio in Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia. O’Neill claims the hugs, which cost upwards of $60-an-hour, help lonely people and those suffering from depression feel loved and valued.

Jessica and her husband Jason

“Jason is very supportive and completely gets it. He loves what I do and thinks it’s really beautiful,” O’Neill said. “He is super affectionate and he gives me cuddles at home. Our relationship is what makes me so strong.”

YES

NO

I think it would be cheaper to get a dog.

Although presumably you don't have to walk her and clean up her poop.

It would be after many sessions, but the idea is to teach people how to feel love again, love themselves and then express love to those around them in a healthy way.
Overtime a pup will not be cheaper and also can’t really hold you the way I do. But dogs are amazing💖✌️

The fact that a business like this can flourish means that there's something seriously wrong with society.

Not really, a cuddle session with me can in some cases do more than a massage or a psychology session.
Cuddle Therapy is far more than just a hug.
It’s a whole rewiring of the mind and nervous system.
It’s actually just a simple, effective and beautiful way to help people.
In my view society has actually become more loving and accepting.
Cuddle Therapy is a sign of positive growth.

I wouldn't. But I think it's cute that she does that.

I don't cuddle with random people for any reason, period.

I think it's time to stop paying females for being pretty.

[wyattmorgan]

Its time to start paying them for being smart and funny!!! SMART AHHHH!!! FUNNY!!! AHHHHH!!!

[wyattmorgan]

Its called being cuckolded. Its big among the pro migrant movement supporters.

[mistixs]

How is it being cuckolded? She s not having sex with them. She's making an income which makes it easier for the husband since he doesn't have to make as much income.

[wyattmorgan]

@mistixs No self respecting man would put up with it. PERIOD.

[mistixs]

It's easy money that he will probably get to share in.

Stone cold steve austin says, hell NO...

[Hugemoth]

She's basically a prostitute.

[MysteriousDarkness]

Massage therapists get paid for there job. By your way of thinking you could say they are basically prostitutes. Dumb way of thinking.

[Hugemoth]

There's a big difference between massaging and cuddling.
