[Margaret Pilkington]

Some people get hugs...but not people I do not know.
During my working life I met lots and lots of people. Helped many of them to have their babies...and yes, when we meet up we do exchange a hug.
This is not a sexual thing, it is a reassuringly human interaction, a mark of genuine care and respect and I believe that life would be much poorer without this kind of contact.

People who take offence at comments or innocent actions choose to be offended.
I think much of that choice has been driven by politically correct brainwashing.
They will strive for 'likes' and 'friends' on Facebook, but shun real contact and friends in real life.
There has to be something wrong with that.
