One portion of my extended family gives notoriously long hugs. One aunt in particular gives, and i'm not exaggerating, fifteen second long hugs. 2-3 seconds is acceptable but she wants to have a conversation mid-hug and you're just stuck there. Its always fun introducing a new girlfriend and my aunt is just hanging on to her. They always look shell shocked afterwards

So it's bad to get close to a guy's arms, but it's perfectly ok to want to firmly grasp and pump the same hand that he beats his meat with(except for us lefties)?
If you're both all sweaty and crap, yeah, I think I'd pass on a hug, but otherwise...who cares? A hug won't infect you with "the gay", nor will folks suddenly assume that you like to frequent bath houses, if that's what's bothering you. This thread is gold.

The 'fags' thing is a bit harsh, but this is generally good advice.
Shake hands if you like, but there is just no reason to go beyond that. |

There's a couple bros of mine I only get to see once a year. We hug, because we care deeply about each other. If we saw each other more often, it would probably just be a handshake. Plus they're hot

The gangsta handshake/1arm hug is fuckking gay.
And on the subject of whether real men hug, I just got home an hour ago from working my second job, providing armed security for high value cargo (plain clothes, not uniformed). The man who owns the company is a retired Special Forces Sergeant. When I first met him, he gave me a big hug, "Sorry dude, I'm a hugger!" He sure as heck is, and with him it's heartfelt and not the least bit phony. All the guys who work with him just acknowledge it's how he is. And I'm okay with that.

I don't mind the hugging in theory, but I'm not a fan of being touched in general. My stepdad used to beat the shit out of me, so physical contact isn't my favorite thing.

Do you know what bugs me more than hugs? When a "conservative" uses liberal logic to argue their opinion. Quote HistoryQuoted:
Quoted:
Wtf does that even mean??? So some dude wants to b@tt-f@ck you. You'd let him because you are "comfortable with your sexuality"? On topic: I don't ever remember hugging my father even. We just don't show that kind of emotion in my family. And just remember, my question was not about being homosexual it was about that specific statement. (For the comprehension impaired) I'll be waiting. |

Alright mr. bastion of conservatism, how far does being comfortable with your "sexuality" go before it is gay? You tell me where that line is. Sex with another man is, in general, pretty gay. Hugging a dude while naked might be gay. I'll make an exception if you're in the locker room after winning the Stanley Cup. Hugging friends while fully dressed? Is this really a question? Say "I'm not comfortable with it" and I understand. Say "that's gay" and I assume you are either 12 years old or projecting. |

Nothing recently. My then 20 year-old nephew tried to hug me a few years ago and I asked him WTF was wrong with him?
I think I touched my father 3 times after I turned 10. He wasn't a hugger. No one in his generation was. Same with mine. This casual hugging shit is retarded. Older people save it for the people they love and use it as a true expression of love; for the people most important to them. If you're hugging every Tom, Dick and Harry, it kind of looses its pop, don't you think? My father and uncles were cold unloving pricks why would I emulate that. Sad that your manhood is threatened by such a loving gesture amongst family. My nephews are at my house or my brothers house every Sunday watching football, shooting pool and drinking beer, except when hunting. We are all quite manly men secure in our own skin and we greet each other with a hug. |

Mens don't take selfies with mens.
Seriously though, I'm not one to initiate hugs outside of my wife, kids, grandma, and attractive female acquaintances. But in almost 20 years of marriage, I don't think I've ever seen my FIL hug my wife, or her siblings or any of the grandkids. And his mom was the same way. Always critical and never praising. The result has been her spending her entire life trying to please him on a subconscious level. So all you tough old bastards who cringe at the thought of human touch, hug your kids and tell them you love them and are proud of them. Even your adult boys. |

You young guys want to hug each other, fine. Go ahead. I don't care. But my generation, we weren't raised to be fags and we don't hug. I have dear friends I have known since 1970 that I have never hugged. Not a once. The women friends? Sure, we hug. But men? We don't hug other men. So, please keep that faggy metrosexual bullshit to yourself.

38 year old heterosexual male. I hug friends and family, both men and women. I also tell them I love them. I've also hugged people I didn't know, because it was obvious they needed a hug.
My dad is 62. Super nice guy, but not affectionate. He doesn't hug. He doesn't say "I love you." Once I hit 30, I said eff it, I'm gonna teach him affection. I hug my dad every time I see him, and tell him I love him every time I talk to him. Even in public. He never reciprocates. Often looks super uncomfortable. But has never said stop.
His side of the family is like that. I think it's less about generation, and more just how you were raise. That being said, I was raised to be unaffectionate. But I guess I'm just a closet homo, because I broke that chain. I love to hug. Sometimes with a lil pelvic pump thrust, just to let you know I really like you. |

I brought-up the whole hug thing at the LGS this morning......Peeps there were in their 20s to in their 70s....A couple were resent combat veterans.
Other than one 20-something committing to the side-hug thing the outright hugging of other men seemed to be right much of a no-go. The one woman there (another 20-something) said "what kind of man hugs another man except maybe at a funeral". To be honest it was a uncomfortable conversation all around and quickly moved-on to dead fish/penguin flipper handshakes.

The last hug I got from a stranger was when our SAR unit found her 80 year old dad that had been missing in the wilderness for 3 days. The subject's wife, son, and daughter ran around hugging everyone at the command post and crying. I should have shoved that bitch in the dirt and told her that I'm not a limp wristed faggot, don't fucking touch me.

The question of "being comfortable with ones sexuality" (hate that fucking phrase which is what all my posts are about). The guy that was asking/telling was someone we were aquainted with. Well, for some reason beyond me, they kissed to show how comfortable they were with their sexuality. (Not made out but kissed none the less) Where is that on the law of YOUR scale? (remember that others may not think the same way you do) Both for all I know are /were straight. Is that just being comfortable? Or is it something someone says to justify what they do? No dog in this fight, people can hug/ bang whomever they want. |
