It seems like a new craze: hugging. People are hugging all the time. Some sociologists pointed out that African-American boys and men have been hugging as part of their greeting for decades, using the word “dap” to describe a ritual involving handshakes, slaps on the shoulders and, more recently, a hug, also sometimes called the gangsta hug. It could have some sexual menaing but pro-hugging students say it is not a romantic or sexual gesture, simply the new “hello”. The high-five is, like, boring. So "Hugg" ! :-)
