Ah. That makes sense. They're defining cuddling as something far different that anything any rational person has ever understood it to mean, then letting people self report. That's the great thing about language: When evidence isn't on your side, but you still really want to make a point, all you have to do is redefine terms and hope no one notices. See Frank Luntz, for example.
