Læst lige at det er muligt at købe et kram. Altså et ganske almindelig kram. And no it isn’t with a red light in the window. What a concept…buy a hug, for a dollar a minute, about 5,50kr. Det er sundt at få og give kram. It is healthy to receive and give hugs. It reduces stress. Makes us feel warm and cared for. Even if we pay for it? As a single person, you miss the daily dose of caring touch and hugs that are present in a twosome. I’ve pondered the possibility of having hug sessions at work, the thought struck me on a particularly blue Monday, but was quickly dismissed, pretty sure my co-workers would think it a crazy idea.

Not everyone is comfortable with touch. I like a hand on my shoulder or an arm around the shoulders in a quick hug. It makes me feel good. But to go so far as to pay for a cuddle, I don’t think so. And I can’t help but think – what a wonderful idea but how very sad that it should be necessary, that there is actually a need or market for “hugs for sale” Business is reported to be booming. 👏
