Then you are too young. American men never used to hug. There’s a reason for the change.

When did this happen, because I remember my brother hugging some of his high school buddies when he got back from his first tour in Vietnam. And I can remember in the late '50s, my dad hugging one of his buddies from WWII at the airport that he hadn't seen in years. I was watching a show the other day about V-E Day showing soldiers and sailors hugging back in 1945.

If you want to argue that people hug for just about any reason these days, I won't argue that. But to say that American men never used to hug is foolish.
