Summary: attitude

In article <3539@amdcad.UUCP> phil@amdcad.UUCP (Phil Ngai) basically says:
[sometimes I'm in a group that starts all this huggy-stuff and I don't
 necessarily want to hug everyone in the group. How do I avoid this?
 When I just give in even hugging the people I want to hug is fake.]

Attitude. If you have the correct attitude and bodily expressions when
they come up to you they may be taken slightly aback a couple times but
even most of the everybodyhuggy types realize that it's inappropriate to
hug someone who doesn't want to be hugged.

And once they're all done, you can seek out those you want to and guh
them to death... :-)
