I respect others' personal space and expect that they respect mine. The only woman I would ever actually hug is my wife. I certainly do not intend to hug another woman whether it be at church or elsewhere. I just don't find that necessary or really even appropriate. on that note, I have stopped other men from hugging my wife as well. I catch alot of blowback and usually hear something like "hey man I've known her my whole life." I really don't care how long you've known her, I don't put my hands on your wife, so don't put your hands on mine. I understand it is an age old custom to hug one another but I can exchange platonic pleasantries with women in Sunday school class, or my wife's friends, or other female friends without involving any physical contact.

If I ever have a daughter, I won't allow anyone to hug her. Just not necessary. There are too many creeps out there and there isn't any call for someone to be making physical contact.

The New Testament actually says to greet one another with kiss, soooooo....



Yeah, wouldn't wanna be kissed lol

I don’t hug men. I don’t think men should hug each other. I don’t mind hugging a woman if she wants a hug. I don’t mind my hugging children if they want a hug. But, I agree that children shouldn’t be forced to hug other people. I never wanted to hug my smelly aunt when I was a kid.

And yes, all the little kids at Thanksgiving were told to tell everyone "Thank you" and give hugs.

It stems from Uncle Joe Biden issues.

I think Nightwatchman was “hugged” by a creepy uncle when he was a child.

Right, it's a cultural thing. We have been in the book of Ruth lately, and last week we studied how Naomi sent Ruth to uncover Boaz's feet and lay next to him. That might seem somewhat sexual to us, but in Jewish culture it was not seen as sexual but more of a submissive gesture on Ruth's part.

Like I said, I get a lot of blowback, get poked fun at for being such a touch-me-not, but to me, it is kind of instinctual. If someone gets inside mine or my wife's personal space it automatically sends up red flags.

my in-laws actually have a foster daughter that is always wanting me to pick her up and carry her around. Up until my wife and I married I wouldnt pick her up. Just didnt feel it appropriate to pick up a child that wasn't mine. all it would take would be ONE scenario or spoken word from that child to be taken out of context and it would ruin my life.

I play it safe and if I ever have a daughter I would want people to play it safe as well


All kidding aside... I genuinely feel sorry for you reading your posts on this subject.

Why is that?

I cant believe I'm actually being pegged as the weird one because I won't give out hugs to kids. How on Earth did I become the odd man out by advocating NOT touching children? Makes no sense to me.

No. But I do remember being able to peg a creepy adult a mile away. When I was a kid I didn't hug folks, and I don't recall adults trying trying to hug me.

The answer is very simple. The majority of men (99.9% of us) can hug children without having lude thoughts.
Evidently you cannot. That makes you the weird one.

I’d h e to agree. My niece (3yo) wants to hug me and hang around my neck and play with her constantly . I can’t tell her no don’t touch me that’s wierd . I would kill someone over her just like I would my own kids .

First of all, you spelled "lewd" wrong, dumbass. Secondly, I wont even dignify your statement with a response. It only takes one instance for a child who has been told to show affection to everyone to give out a hug to the type of evil person that does intend to harm them. Y'all keep letting your kids touch all over people. It only takes one wrong move and some sick twisted individual can get to them.

Pretty far jump from hugging your uncle to teaching kids to touch all over people...

Pretty simple don't hug strangers...if I had an uncle that thought of lewd acts when he hugged my kids he wouldn't have arms to hug...pretty simple

You might never know what was going through his head. This world is slam full of evil people. Alot of them are right under your nose, and if you think you can trust them just because you've known them for years, you might wanna rethink that.

Most children that are assaulted are assaulted by people that they or their families know really well.

Everyone in this thread just seems like way to trusting of a group of individuals. If I trust NO ONE with my children, then there is ZERO chance that they can be harmed. Seems pretty cut and dry to me.

Even farther jump from me saying "Don't let anyone touch your kids and don't touch other people's kids" to someone telling me I can't pick up kids without having "lude" thoughts.

Actually no, we never can control every single thing that ever happens. But telling them to not let people touch them is surely a good start. I lay awake in bed at night worried to death about what might happen to our foster daughter/wife when I'm not around to protect them. Seems like every day now in Birmingham someone else is getting abducted/attacked. Right here in our backyard and we are slam full of evil people.
