It's rediculous to censor your hug for other people. It's also rediculous to measure how close to someone you are when you hug them and how much of them you touch. If you want to hug someone, just do it.

It really depends on who you are hugging, and the reason for the hug. When hugging my nieces or nephews, it is no holds barred - I hug them, spin them around, give them wet sloppy cheek kisses, etc. But I would never do that with my sister or brother! With them, it is a little hug with a peck on the cheek (brothers only on the peck). Same with my parents and other relatives.
With my significant other, I'm not afraid of PDA, although it is unwelcome in front of some people. I try to be considerate of others and where I am, that usually dictates how much of a hug it is. But I love my man and I can't help but hug him in a way that shows him that I love him, even if it is not a super long hug, it is always a deep hug.
It really all depends on your personal taste. It is perfectly okay to say "no" to a hug if you are not comfortable. I hope this helps.

Do you mean between friends? A gentle hug, arms only, bodies don't touch, is fine.
Do you mean with your significant other? A gentle full body hug that lasts only a second or two is fine. Overly demonstrative PDA (Public Display of Affection) is best saved for private.

E. different, whether that's a dogs i celebrate with yet am no longer at the instant in the marketplace for, i might walk via, overlook on the subject of the dogs and make a passing speedy assertion to the owner "great dogs" as i'm strolling via, IF the owner makes eye touch. whether that's a breed i'm at the instant in the marketplace for and that i think of this actual dogs is the type i'm interested in, i might wait at a repectable distance until reported dogs grew to become into grew to become into complete and then ask the owner a with a bit of luck smart query approximately bloodlines and the place i ought to inquire approximately getting one like it. If I had met them in the previous, i might have already got my answer and nod hi as I handed via minding my own employer.

usually a quick hug with a pat on the back is enough

Depends who you are:
European/French Canadian: side kiss on both cheeks with hands lightly on elbows or shoulders.
Canadian/American: hand-shake, light kiss on the cheek
some Asians: light bow
Conservative/prudish: polite hello with no physical contact
Horny teenager: tight squeeze with arms and legs of female wrapped around torso of male
cell mates: two hands on hips of the male in front of you while he is bending over to pick up dropped object.

Proper hugging etiquette? I dunno, don't squeeze their azz?
You hug friends and not strangers you just met. If that good enough?
