Hugs and Kisses is a term for a sequence of the letters X and O, e.g. XOXO, typically used to express affection or good friendship at the end of a written letter or email.
It is debatable which letter represents which act. Some interpret X as the crossed arms of a hug and O as the puckered lips of a kiss. However, the interpretation assumed in the following, in which X represents the four lips of a kiss and O the four arms of a hug, is more common. For example the Oxford English Dictionary states that X is "used to represent a kiss, esp. in the subscription to a letter." [1]
But in more conventional modern language, the X is most often referred to as a Hug denoted by the way it resembles the form a hug when viewing the hugger. One also notices the similar resemblance of puckered lips to the O which denotes a kiss

Controversy, controversy. I'll straighten it all out. The x's are hugs, the shape of arms going around you and o's are kisses, the shape of the mouth in a passionate kiss.
