there’s this phenomenon and almost ‘running joke’ that all men’s love language is physical touch. people say that it’s because men are more lustful creatures and are just ‘hardwired’ to desire sex and all of those things compared to women, which isn’t true. sure, with some men that’s the case, but it’s not all of them.

physical touch in female friends is normalized. however, causal physical touch in male friendships is not as normalized and is looked down upon depending on the people you surround yourself with. some men are devoid of physical touch in their lives because the only person they’re likely getting it from is their partner, and they don’t really have it in other places in their life.

hueningkai’s love language is physical touch. not in the way that he’s freaky and wants to go around doing things with everyone, he just loves hugs, getting his hair played with and things like that!

you two went out on a date not too long ago, and you two ended up cuddling. except this time, hueningkai was the little spoon, and you were big spoon. it’s been a day since then and you heard him talking to his friend on facetime while he was at his home on the couch, he was talking about your date and didnt know you were there..

“and! i’ve tried a new position i’ve never tried before… little spoon, baby! hah, and i’m never going back” he says, patting his chest with a smug grin, looking proud that he got something as innocent as being the little spoon.

he didn’t want anything like THAT, he never wanted to take advantage of people just to satisfy his desires, he genuinely loves innocent actions like cuddling and hair playing.
