I posted this information several months ago to no avail. There are numerous reports on national television regarding providers that are offering cuddling by the hour. Is this a smart alternative to detailed offerings of GFE etc... I don't believe that most men would reject this idea as a meet greet and cuddle. I do not think that LE would be desirous to pay and cuddle with a provider hoping to make an arrest. What do you think? Could this help protect our providers?

...I'm going to have a new site built that will advertise just that notion.  

Great idea!  
 

Why is it a lady can rent a guy to fix stuff in her house but can't rent his dick? Vice versa.
  I know its sex.
I do plumbing everyday, I sell my body and knowledge everyday.

and if I recall correctly, one woman I read about who does it is adamant, cuddling is not naked, and there is zero sexual activity.

I would be willing to do a test run with you. It could prove to be very successful for the adult biz.

If you simply offer "companionship" how can they bust you without sending an undercover LEO in push the situation into "deal making."

Play by the rules if it's companionship, get the escort license, keep files, and pay taxes.  Rent a pal could work the same way. Would change rates but would move it above ground. I don't expect many customers, though.
