How to give the perfect man hug from Charles Clayton on Vimeo.
Narrator: “The modern world is a complex place for many men.” So true. There is no doubt, our society is very sexually confused.

I always just extend my hand and say “Just a “hand hug” for me, please”.Ha ha! And ohhhhh, that reminds me. A few days ago, my husband and I were walking home from church with our dogs in tow, and there was a man jogging on the other side of the street. He came over (we knew him from school) and he extended his hand. He was literally dripping wet (it was about 90 out and very humid), and I just kept my hands on the dog's leash. He talked for a few minutes, and then when he was about to leave, out came the hand again, with more force this time. My husband and I just shook it. Eeeeeeeesh. Now whenever we get slimed by our dogs or whatever, we use his last name as a verb, like, "Ugh, I've been groganed."
Men do not hug and mauve is not a color.
Hi MLizzy, good to meet you here on FR. When I started FR, years ago, I used to accidentally double post by backing up on my browser to continue reading...then going forward again. Not sure if that might be what you’re doing...? As per me, I’m hitting my Blackberry Trackball too many times. I’m a dork, ‘though and need a manly-man hug (or, preferably, a girly-girl hug).
You liked it.......admit it !
breath mint ?
It was OK once he took his dentures out.
I prefer a firm hand shake while looking straight in the eye. This touchy, feely crap can go across the aisle to the dem section.
Yeah.......it was deer camp and he wasn’t supposed to tell !
BTW Did kitchen get with you on Ron Peterson’s S&W Sale ?
I do too. I feel overwhelmingly uncomfortable with man on man contact. I’m cool with my sexuality, but I have an innate feeling of ewwwwwww if I am put in a hug situations. Real anxiety invoker. Except if I’ve had beers and my FSU team has scored.
Didn’t hear anything. Did snag a pre-war nickel K-22 recently though.
Hint: don’t grab his dick.
Man hugs are good for:
-family
-funerals
-or drunk situations where sports are involved.
Did I miss anything?

Well, the ‘made’ guys hug BUT they are actually just checking to see if anyone is ‘heavy’.
My east Texas relatives always said “come here and let me hug your neck”. And that is what they did, just a neck hug.
My east Texas relatives always said “come here and let me hug your neck”. And that is what they did, just a neck hug.*smiles* I don't think I've heard of a "neck hug" before, but I can figure it out. I am not from a family that hugged, not even my mother. But as someone mentioned on this post, there will probably be hugging all around
The way a neck hug works is you each put your head over the other persons shoulder and the arms stay up shoulder high. Bodies do not touch, I think that is the point of a neck hug. LOL!
Wow, thanks for the explanation! I envisioned grabbing one another’s necks. LOL.
