Is skinship important?

Yes it is very important b/c emotional needs are very important where I live. So I didn't sleep alone until I was 12 years old except when my parents wanted to do the husband/wife thing and create my younger sister by 20 months. So I can still easily sleep in the same bed with my parents AND sleep easily sleep with another man while holding his hand b/c we're NOT accused to be gay and sleep on opposite sides of the same bed! If I am know someone well and b/c I live in a country where skin ship is normal I can share a bed with another man WITHOUT being called gay.
