But what exactly is a hug?
The hug is a form of physical intimacy as you can see from these msn emoticons! It's one of the most common human signs of love and affection - as is kissing. In many countries people can hug publically and privately without causing offence. It's accepted across different religions and cultures, within families, and also across age and gender lines.
Hugs can of course be romantic exchange but it can be more simple, just as a sign of support and comfort e.g. the group msn smiley hug. Hugs are often exchanged when meeting someone such as a friend. In some cultures it's acceptable for men to hug whilst in others it's not considered a manly thing to do. A prolonged cozy hug is called a 'cuddle' and might be exchanged between couples as well as parents and children to show love and affection e.g. the girl boy msn smiley hug on this page.
Hugs & kisses
'Hugs and Kisses' are also known as 'Love and Kisses'. They're represented in letters and emails or in IM chats by the letters X and O i.e. XOXO. We use these symbols to express affection or good friendship at the end of our MSN Messenger chats... or we can use an msn emoticon hug and kiss to express our msn emotions online. There are many different styles of msn emoticons hugs and kisses in our collection of our favourite hugs and kisses smileys on the web. Some are very friendly hugs whilst others would be used to express much more romantic msn emotions. Make your choice carefully and think about who you send it to before you send it.
