Out here in my pee-cee college town, there's a fair amount of same-sex hugging; you see it in 12-step groups, spirituality groups, men's groups, some churches, and so on. It's usually done as part of a meeting or ritual, so There Are Rules.
I'm not much of a hugger myself, with males or females, except with the missus, but it doesn't kill me when it happens.
