Thanks to Peter for drawing our attention to this strange new concept. (Link to his forum post.) Apparently side hugging is gaining popularity in the land of conservative Christians. The idea is to avoid the dangerous risk of “two crotches touching.” Therefore:
Instead of face to face, you go side to side, putting your arm around the person and your hip against their’s. Still having a hard time mastering it? Pretend you’re taking a photo and you’re both looking at the camera together. The side hug, or A frame as it is also called, is safe for the whole family, friendly and above all holy.
But upon closer examination, I think this is another example of Poe’s Law. In other words, it’s satire. The concept of the side hug traces back to the humor site Stuff Christians Like, where it’s identified as satire.
