Wow. I think that was my lamest analogy yet. -------------------------
I'm definitely not LD about hugs, in a sexually active R, at least. I guess I'm a little gun shy about them, as you surmise, however.
My personal experience is that hugs were presented as the only thing necessary. "Hugs" meaning non-sexual touching and affection. The SSM definitely put me off to a lot of what I would otherwise enjoy.
As far as your weak analogy goes, it was all those *** in my previous post that threw you off. (Either that or the guy's pics in SD's post. )
